Hi, I’m a personal website owner who also runs pydio on it. I have installed (FTP/zip) and was using ver 5.2.1 and have not accessed/updated so long. Now I am trying to use it again and update it to the newer version, but it keeps failing. The error message is as follows: 09-06-18 18:49:19 211.249.70.110 ERROR jaeyong class.AJXP\_Utils.php error l.1455 message=file\_get\_contents([http://www.ajaxplorer.info/update/?channel=stable&version=5.2.1&package=pydio-core](http://www.ajaxplorer.info/update/?channel=stable&version=5.2.1&package=pydio-core)): failed to open stream: HTTP request failed!

HTTP/1.0 404 Not Found Is there a way that I can upgrade to the newer version? Any help would be appreciated… Thanks… ---

Hi, upgrading from a version that is older than pydio 7 is really complicated as we changed a lot in between and therefore the migration process is long, the best way would be to install the newest version available right now pydio 8.2.1.
