Get them and look at them. It may well solve you large amounts of time
and data loss later.
but the site appears to be working. My question is, is it safe to do
a fresh install of 4.2.1 and then use the 'make upgrade-database-
script against the current database, use my current RT_SiteConfig.pm
file spin up the site?
That's the recommended set of steps to upgrade, yes. Though it was
written for 3.8 - 4.0, you may find
