Hello BlueOnyx experts,
<br>
<br>
I'm wondering if anyone can help me with a slightly off-topic
question.
<br>
<br>
I migrated sites (all free hosted for non-profit groups) from a
5106 to a 5107R BlueOnyx server. About a week afterward - we
realized the Joomla sites had a problem.
<br>
<br>
It appears the Joomla sites which are all Joomla1.5.10 won't work
with the newer PHP5.3 on 5107R. The Joomla1.5 was written to work
with the older PHP5.1 on the 5106R. And it results in some of the
menu functions completely broken.

Before answering your question - let me just say this. Running old
versions of webapps is not a good idea. That version of joomla is
quite old, and has a number of high risk vulnerabilities - some of
which include SQL injection vulnerabilities which could allow an
attacker to modify mysql database content. See the CVE link below
for more information on vulnerability details.<br>

found that Joomla.org put out a updater that will take Joomla1.5
to the current Joomla2.5 version. But you must first manually
update your 1.5 to the latest 1.5 version - 1.5.25. And that's
where I'm stuck. I can't find anything on how to update these
1.5.10 to 1.5.25 so I can then use the Jupdater to get to 2.5.

1.5.25 is no longer available - There is a 1.5.26 version available.
I would guess (you should confirm) that the updater will also work
from 1.5.26. Instructions to update to 1.5.26 are available here<br>

<br>
You can probably use the tool from that point onwards.<br>
