Re: Manual server updates required after months of running fine?
Hi Christian, Thanks for the reply. Obviously, you're right, I looked at the database dump that I did before the rb-site upgrade and it did say 1.5.3, so I was not as careful as I thought I was when doing the migration months ago. Mea culpa. I finally twigged on the wording of the yellow box: ...and then restart your web server. Whatever was happening seemed to be cached state in certain httpd processes (thus the intermittent nature, it depended on what process served what request). I restarted Apache and all was well. Thanks for all your hard work on reviewboard. I installed it on a whim years ago and we have gradually built our whole workflow around it.
