<p dir="auto">The fifth release candidate for FOG 1.6.0 is on the <code>rc-1.6.0</code> branch. It reports version <code>1.6.0-RC-5</code>.</p>
<p dir="auto">Release page: <a href="https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject/releases/tag/1.6.0-RC-5" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc">https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject/releases/tag/1.6.0-RC-5</a></p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>Upgrade to RC-5 if your schema update stopped at step 345.</strong> On MariaDB, a re-run of a failed schema update could stop there with error 1292. RC-5 fixes it.</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>Changed since RC-4</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>A schema update could stop at step 345 on MariaDB with <code>1292 Truncated incorrect DECIMAL value: ''</code>. It now completes. (#1825)</li>
<li>Pending MACs has a new <strong>Approve all matching</strong> button. It approves every pending MAC that matches your search and filters, on all pages, after a confirm dialog shows the count. (#1828, thanks to Coolguy3289 for #1826)</li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto"><strong>Update (as root)</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>A 1.6 beta or RC server: <code>bin/updatefog.sh --channel rc</code> from your FOG checkout.</li>
<li>A 1.5 server installed from git: update to the current 1.5 stable, then run <code>bin/updatefog.sh --channel rc</code>.</li>
<li>A new server, or a 1.5 server installed from a tarball:<br />
<code>curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FOGProject/fogproject/working-1.6/bin/bootstrap.sh | bash -s -- --channel rc</code></li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto">Test on a lab or non-production server first. The upgrade from 1.5 to 1.6 changes the database schema, and there is no way back. Back up your database and <code>/opt/fog/.fogsettings</code> before you upgrade.</p>
<p dir="auto">Report problems at <a href="https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject/issues" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc">https://github.com/FOGProject/fogproject/issues</a> with your FOG version, your OS, and the installer log from <code>bin/error_logs/</code>.</p>
