Sugar Community Edition Release Notes

Version 5.1c

Requirements for 5.1

•	For MySQL and MS SQL servers, increase the value of the memory_limit parameter to 40M or higher in the php.ini file. To install Sugar 5.1 successfully, ensure that the MB String module is installed in your PHP libraries.

•	If you are using MySQL, you must install version 4.1.2 or higher to use with Sugar 5.1.

•	For Microsoft Exchange, Sugar supports only versions 2000 and higher.

•	Before upgrading to 5.1, navigate to the php.ini file on your system and change the post_max_size and upload_max_filesize settings to more than 20MB. Restart Apache and then begin the upgrade process.

•	The process of upgrading to 5.1 can take up to an hour. If you are using the IIS Web server, you need to ensure that the CGI application does not time out. To do this, on IIS, set the CGI script timeout to more than 300 seconds, which is the default value.

In order to better support multi-byte character storage with Microsoft SQL Server, you can configure Sugar to use FreeTDS driver. For more information, see “Installation Prerequisites and Guidelines” in the Sugar Community Edition Installation and Administration Guide.
