Great news!!

However, searching for instructions about upgrading from 3.2.1 in online documentation, i could see that online documents still points to version 3.x

Ok it's fixed now.

You will keep seeing Pandora3.0 in the first titles of every page though, because this title is extracted in the link, and we haven't had time to change the links so they point to Pandora or Pandora4.0 yet.

Regards.

However, searching for instructions about upgrading from 3.2.1 in online documentation, i could see that online documents still points to version 3.x

Maybe I am blind, but i still cant find anything about upgrading to 4.0.x
Where do I find a Guide?
Is it possible to upgrade from 3.1 or do I need to upgrade to 3.2.1 first?

[tpalacios]

Here it is:

Upgrading from a previous version

If there's something you don't understand, just let me know.

BTW, you have to upgrade from 3.1 to 3.2.1, and then to the latest version. ;)

Thank you. I have found this docu, but the Headline is called "Pandora 3.0:Docum..."
And I miss something like release notes. The information, that I need to upgrade to 3.2.1, is important, I think.
And the only thing that I can find to version 4 is "Update from version 3.2.1 to 4.0
After update Console from Tarballs, DEB or RPM and access to Web console could appear the following errors"

But i want to know, what steps i have to do and i need to be sure, that the information is vor version 4. I cant see it out of this docu, cause everything is about version 3.x exept the Point marked above with the error that could appear.

But thanks so far, we will make the update not without a snapshot.
Have a nice weekend,
regards

Sorry about the confussion there. Documentation URL does reference to 3.0 but it's always the "latest" information, in this case, for 4.0.x version.
