Thanks everyone, I am convinced and will do the upgrade as soon a possible, however, it would not be wise to do two changes at once, so after I have everything migrated to the new server (this is the highest priority now), I'll start the upgrade on a test site.
thanks again

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3.8.1 is obsolete, and have security issues.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
