Upgrade from prestashop 1.6.1.9 to 1.7 - upgrade

Is it posible to upgrade from prestashop 1.6.1.9 to 1.7? Where is the official documentation?

At this time it's not possible. Check comments here:
http://build.prestashop.com/news/prestashop-1-7-0-0-released/
Probably it will be available in the future; at this time you can only export products, categories and customers from 1.6.x to 1.7.x
Update 2017/03/27: available since today http://build.prestashop.com/news/updated-1-click-upgrade-module/

Compatibility of typo3-content between version 6.1.5 and 7.6

we are going to upgrade our typo3-instance from version 6.1.5 to 7.6. Since we need to clone the instance and afterwards upgrade it in two steps (6.1.5 -> 6.2, 6.2 -> 7.6) we wonder if it was easier to setup a clean 7.6 instance and migrate the data (templates, sites, binaries etc.) afterwards.
There are multiple instruction pages on the web describing how to upgrade to 6.2 and to 7.6 but it seems to be a really tricky process.
So I'd like to know if the t3d data is compatible between those versions. Can we export the data from 6.1.5 and import it to 7.6 without troubles?
What do you think of the approach?
Thanks,
Thomas

Most likely this process will not go without troubles.
Best advice I can give, is to upgrade to 6.2, do the upgrade wizards in the install tool. After that upgrade to 7.6 and do the upgrade wizards in the install tool again (those will be different ones).
Your content should now be fine.
You can keep incompatible extensions uninstalled during this process as it is merely targeting content migration. Don't bother with extension code while doing this. Just the core and your content is enough to provide a working content structure for 7 LTS. Migrate the extensions afterwards.
I prefer the upgrade way to do it, because the t3d export / import thing may work, but may cause some troubles too, especially if this is a bigger site.
If you update the extensions on your 6.2 site to current versions, fix the namespaces and deprecation log entries in your individual extensions, the 6.2. => 7.6 upgrade should be quite smooth. In my experience it is much more convenient than a 4.5 => 6.2 upgrade.

Is there any compatibility issues with magento 1.5 and PHP 5.4

I have a Magento 1.5 site and PHP 5.3 version.I want to upgrade the PHP version to 5.4.Is there any compatibility issues will occur with magento 1.5? Is magento 1.5 support PHP version 5.4 ?
I don't think that Magento 1.5 is compatible with PHP 5.4.
According to http://www.magentocommerce.com/knowledge-base/entry/php54-patch, there is a Patch solving problems with Magento 1.6.0.0–1.8.1.0.
If you want to use PHP 5.4, you should consider about updating the Magento-Code or try to test it in another enviroment.
Cheers,
Chris
Magento is still patching in PHP 5.4 support. If you want the best experience in this regard, always got with the very latest version. Right now this should be 1.9.1.0.
You can easily test your own shop by enabling magento developer mode. It should display all sort of errors incl. strict warnings which you most likely will trigger with PHP 5.4 (and later on 5.5).
But as others have written, it's better you move up to a more recent version of magento.

Workflow in Orchard CMS

Does Orchard CMS provide modules for workflow and Document Management??
I have searched the workflow and document management modules in Orchard gallery but couldn't find one.
Can anybody help me??
I'm not sure about document management, but the new version of Orchard (1.7, I believe slated for this week) is the first to have the Workflows module.
If you install 1.6.1 (latest stable,) it won't have it. However, if you enlist the 1.x branch, you can use the Workflows module. It's relatively stable from what I can tell, but it will be officially stable once version 1.7 is the new default.

Typo3 installation on PHP4

Does anybody know if it's possible to install Typo3 on PHP4? I've looked up the packages-page, but i haven't found anything yet.
Many thanks in regards!
No, it's not possible to install any recent versions. TYPO3 4.6 requires PHP 5.3+ and even TYPO3 4.4 requires PHP 5.2+. Some older versions obviously used to run on PHP 4 but all versions prior to TYPO3 4.4 are outdated, not maintained and insecure.
You do not want PHP4! ;-) a bit sarcastic, but please change your mind / your boss's mind! It's out of support since ages and basically sucks.
I'm sorry, it's not. The system requirements for the latest version state PHP5:

Vignette V8 Upgrade

Vignette upgrades are usually not straightforward. You basically have to do a new installation and migrate over all of your customizations etc. Does anyone know if the upcoming V8 version is easier to upgrade or if its easier to upgrade from a certain previous version compared to earlier version. So I can upgrade to an earlier version (say 7.6) and then hopefully its easier?
Vignette v8 is officially not out yet, its only been soft released to some selected clients. My guess is that the upgrade will not be very straightforward but I've no concrete information on that.
During the wait you might also be interested in an open source alternative of Vignette v8 freely available: Sense/Net 6.0 http://blog.sensenet.hu/post/2009/08/05/An-Open-Source-Alternative-for-Vignette-v8.aspx
I have finally found the answer. You do need to upgrade to 7.6 before upgrading to 8.0 from an earlier version.
