Worried - Server PHP upgrade - how will this effect me?

Hi all.

 

I've just got an email from my hosting company telling me that in 4-6 weeks, the server my site is hosted on is being upgraded from PHP 4.3.4 to PHP 5.2.6

Also, Apache update from 1.3.27 to 2.2.3

 

Could somebody please explain what will happen to my site when these upgrades take place? I really have no idea because I've never had a PHP upgrade since I started my site.

 

I am currently using oscommerce 2.2-MS2

 

Any hints / tips on what I should do, or general advice would be appreciated a lot!

 

Thanks in advance.

The code base you have will not work with the new release of php.

You need to update your site with these patches especially the v5 patches.
