If you are trying to upgrade via source you will have to first upgrade from 4.x to 5.x and then from 5.x to 6.x. I don't think it is possible to go directly from 4.x to 6.x. The other option available is of course to make a backup of all data and config files, make a new clean install of 6.x, and then restore files from backup. -- <Insert your favourite quote here.> Erik Trulsson ertr1013@student.uu.se
