I need advice about upgrading my current Moodle V 2.9.2. to 3.4.1.
I read that, "You can only upgrade to Moodle 3.4 from Moodle 3.0 or later. If upgrading from earlier versions, you must upgrade to 3.0 as a first step."
But perhaps there is a better approach since I am running into issues. The attached V 3.0 build 20150914, Current release information form reports these 3 issues:
1) Status is red Check. database mysql (5.5.5-10.2.11-MariaDB-log) version 5.5.31 is required and you are running 5.5.5.10.2.11.
My web host company says I cannot switch to mysql version 5.5.31
2) Status is yellow Check. php_setting opcache.enable PHP setting should be changed. PHP opcode caching improves performance and lowers memory requirements, OPcache extension is recommended and fully supported.
3) Status is yellow Check. unsupported_db_table_row_format if this test fails, it indicates a potential problem Your database has tables using Antelope as the file format. You are recommended to convert the tables to the Barracuda file format. See the documentation Administration via command line for details of a tool for converting InnoDB tables to Barracuda.
My web host company says as for MySQL tables, we only provide Mysiam and InnoDB.
