Hello, I'm sorry to post this in the CMSB topic but I couldn't find a better place. 

I'm still using Artman 2 since my site is too big and although I bought 2 licenses of CMSB several years ago the upgrade process seemed too daunting to me.

I was thinking about upgrading MySQL to version 5.6 but first I wanted to know if Artman 2 will work with it.

Thank you!

Hi Sven,

It has been a number of years since I used Article Manager but I do have a test installation of Article Manager on a host that is using MySQL 5.7.

Do you have a staging server that you could use to test?

If you don't have a staging server, I recommend creating one using a sub domain or another domain to create a duplicate of the current site and installation. Then you can update MySQL on that installation to ensure there won't be any issues before updating the live site.

Hope this helps. 

Cheers,
