There have been a number of config changes between versions 5 and 6. You will have to account for those in your upgrade.
Since this software is a gatekeeper to your applications, it is wise to run the most recent version.

Please be cautious with links and sensitive information. Thanks for your reply. And what about backward compatibility ? Of course there is a link between OS distributions, Java versions, CAS and building tools and if I can avoid using totally out of phase Java versions, I would be more than happy ! But is it safe to replace an old CAS version by a more recent one (after having modified the new templates and configuration files of course) ?

Is it a good thing to use the latest version available, maybe to be more “futureproof”, or should I install the same. By the way, how can I know which version is the latest stable ?
