[rt-users] Upgrading web/email server...should I upgrade RT itself too?

2015-05-08 Thread Beachey, Kendric
Hi all, We're running RT on Ubuntu 8.04...so it's time to get with the times. :-) A new CentOS server has been prepared for us. The database is actually running on a separate machine that is newer and there isn't a plan to upgrade it at this point. My question...is RT 4.0.17 itself old

If you haven't started yet and it is at all possible, you should get a newer version of Ubuntu going. Support for 9.10 ended about two years ago. 12.04 is a long term support release that will keep getting updates until late 2017. By that time you will hopefully have upgraded to 14.04, which
