Topic: upgrading to 5.6

[rod]

i have portforwarding,sysmon,back2ws installed for 5.5 will i need to uninstall these before i upgrade to 5.6 ??

5.6 switched to iptables. You will need a new version of the Port Forwarding contrib for it to work properly, so you might as well uninstall it before upgrading.

I'm not sure about the others. Have you checked their sites to see if they have different 5.5 and 5.6 versions?

when i try to re-create some account that already deleted there's come up error message as below;
Error: the account "xxxxx" can't be created because there is already a user-deleted account of that name.
pls advise.
thanks
