The phpBB Team

Just upgraded from 3.1.10 to 3.2.2-RC1 using the Auto-Updater - only the long list of files to be deleted from the old installation was a little annoying.
Didn't catch all files in the first run, so after uploading the archive with new and changed files and pressing "Check again" a new list appeared.
A little disturbing was that in the next step a empty archive of changed and new files was created - maybe those empty archives can be skipped because they may lead to irritations for non-experienced admins.

Edit:

small bug: https://tracker.phpbb.com/browse/PHPBB3-15489

Notable changes

Minimum expected PHP version 5.4.7 - Due to changes in our dependencies, the minimum expected PHP version is now PHP 5.4.7. Versions PHP 5.4.0 to 5.4.6 should still work but might cause minor issues[/list]

Does the installer check if the PHP version is 5.4.7?
Or these minor issues are undocumented and could lead to getting a lot of support requests?

From https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtop ... &t=2452861. This is a blocker as it has the possibility of breaking extensions.

Posted this in the ticket but it's worth mentioning here.

Was finally able to track down the code that broke this. Line 2188 in /includes/functions.php - it's from this commit.

Code: Select all

$u_action = reapply_sid($phpbb_path_helper->get_valid_page($use_page, $config['enable_mod_rewrite']), $phpbb_path_helper->is_router_used());

The installer does not force the minimum version to 5.4.0. You can see this as a suggested version. 99,9 % of users should no longer be using versions between 5.4.0 and 5.4.6.

Which is why the fix was merged into the final release of 3.2.2.

Well done, Marc. And the Teams/Contributors them all.

Nice to see the backport of the code for PHP7.2 in Rhea as well, helps on focusing onto 3.3.x now.

I have a problem with the latest release of phpbb 3.2.2.
I found a bug in the posting area.
When someone post a message with 2 or more images in the text of the post then when he post it and after that when he try to edit the post one image is gone.
