I just did a test migration of my board to a new server. The old server is running vBulletin 3.8.0 Beta 3, and the server itself is read-only to me, so I cannot do any upgrades before the migration.
On the new server, I did a fresh install of XAMPP and 3.8.3, which is the latest my current license allows. I then imported my database, and the board works. However, both the main board and the control panel report that it's running 3.8.0 Beta 3.
Is there a way to update that and let it know what version it is actually on, or do I need to go back and install 3.8.0 before importing my DB? In the download area, there is a 3.8.0, but I don't think it's a Beta version like I have. Note that when I called vBulletin for help with my license, they advised me I could move directly to 3.8.3. Was this incorrect?
Thanks in advance.
