But it usually expects the source to have the right version. Ie the db
upgrades from 4.3 to 4.4 assume a 4.4 source and will call some of
those functions. Functions which definition may have changed in 4.5 or
which even might have been removed.
What I would do is:
- backup your db
- backup your 4.3 files
- remove the 4.3 files (minus conf.php)
- copy 4.4 files to server
- upgrade
- remove 4.4 files
- copy 4.5 files to server
- upgrade
- reinstall contributed modules and themes (correct versions)
Cheers,
Gerhard
