> 1. How hard would it be to upgrade to newest Farcry.
You'll want to upgrade to 5.0, then 5.1, then 5.2, then 6.2 (you can skip 6.0 and 6.1 and just go right to 6.2 which was just released). The reasons for that specific upgrade path is because there were some major changes between those releases and as long as you go in that order, FarCry has an upgrade process to help walk you through it. Make sure each time you move to a new version you update the application scope cache (using ?updateapp=[mykey]) and that you deploy any required changes in the COAPI manager for each version. > 2.

FarCry 6.0.18+ supports Railo officially, however during your upgrades you might want to run it on ACF first (you can just use developer edition which is free). Railo may run just fine on 4.0.9+, but I know there were a couple hiccups in a couple versions in between with regards to Railo (I believe they were pretty minor though, so you might be fine using Railo on those older versions). One thing to note though is that if you plan to run it on later versions of CF (which is fine), you'll need to disable two functions in FarCry core for FarCry 4 and 5 (I forgot which ones off-hand. You can search the forums to find them). They were removed in FarCry 6, o you don't have to worry about them there. Once you're on FarCry 6+, the upgrade and plugins should be smoother going forward (the nature of progression :) Regards, -- Jeff Coughlin On Jul 6, 2012, at 12:56 PM, David Faircloth wrote: > Hello - I have a project I'm taking over, and its running Farcry > 4.0.9.
