    They will not be directly affected. You should try upgrading on some other environment different than production, once you confirm upgrade goes Ok you can then switch.

    I am getting the same exact error messages trying to install 4.0. I am running php 5.3.x on Godaddy server. Any ideas? Does the Zend framework need to be installed? Those lines point to some things about Zend.

    Thanks

    make file test.php with content: <? phpinfo() ?>
    You will see a php version info.

    When I put it back on my server and try to go to the domain...I get the following error.

    Server error

    The website encountered an error while retrieving http://www.blabd.net/install/. It may be down for maintenance or configured incorrectly.

    Here are some suggestions:

    HTTP Error 500 (Internal Server Error): An unexpected condition was encountered while the server was attempting to fulfill the request.
