I don't think many (if any) is running installations with TYPO3 3.8.1. 3.8.1 is obsolete, and have security issues. The 3.8.1 isn't patched for years. Probably the same regarding to extensions, which aren't possible to upgrade unless you upgrade the TYPO3 version.

I would never prefer to stay with an old version of any software, exceptions do occur. So my advice is to upgrade to 4.2.x, 4.3 is in my opinion not an option on CentOS because of CentOS really slow implementation of PHP. 4.3 need PHP 5.2.x

Multisite should not be any problem, I have upgraded multisite TYPO3 installations from 3.6.1 to 4.3.2 without any problems. Problems could be extensions, but if they not are patched or xclassed this should also work OK.

But you should do it the long way, from 3.8 to 4.0 to 4.1 to 4.2.

In my opinion should staying at 3.8.1 not be any alternative at all.

Hi Everyone!

We have had an old but reliable typo3 3.8.1 instance running under
centos 4 for a couple of years.
We need to phase out the server and looking to install a new centos 5
64bit for typo3 and other stuff.
Since I am afraid of upgrading to 4.3 as this is a complex install with
a number of sites and extensions, I would prefer staying at 3.8.1.

Does anybody have any problems running 3.8.1 under centos 5 (php 5.1.6,
mysql 5.0.77, ImageMagick 6.2.8

Thanks and regards
eliott
