    Well, [b]obviously[/b] that isn't going to work.

    Don't even bother running the 1.1.3 -> 1.1.4 upgrade, there's no db changes.

        Wait - I just found out why it doesn't work for .php3 :)

        admin/global.php, find:
        [code]if (file_exists("upgrade.php3")==1 and substr($PHP_SELF,-11)!="upgrade.php3") {[/code]

        Replace with:
        [code]if (file_exists("upgrade.php3")==1 and substr($PHP_SELF,-12)!="upgrade.php3") {[/code]

        Now run the upgrade.

            the difference between 1.1.3 and 1.1.4 are in the coding. 1.1.4 is better optimised to reduce the number of queries required to display pages, thus increasing performance.
