Hi,Could someone point me to the explicit upgrade instructions to move from 4.0.d to 4.2.b. I have seen some instructions but they are short on details. Are there any explicit detailed instructions available?Thanks.-Jon

Hi there!

I just posted a how-to on our site about the upgrade procedure (I think I was waiting for your question to do it 🙂 ). It is tested for upgrade from Community 4.0.d/e to 4.2.a but, as 4.0.b is a bug-fixing version, it's most likely that will suite you. Here it is:

Give it a try.
During the next few days I will test the procedure for 4.2.b and update the post.

Hi,

Thanks. This worked quite well for me. I have been able to successfully upgrade to 4.2.b.
There is one issue right now: Preview for office documents does not work - I only see the first page of the office document.
Has anyone been able to get preview for office documents working in 4.2b.
