Known Issues

This list covers some of the known problems with Revive Adserver. Please read
this before reporting any new bugs.
* The upgrade process may time out with very large databases. See
https://www.revive-adserver.com/docs/faq for more information if you
have a large database.
* If you want to run Revive Adserver with MySQL, please note that MySQL 4.1 or
higher is required. If you are using an older version of MySQL, you will
need to update you database software before upgrading.
* If you want to run Revive Adserver with PostgreSQL, please note that

* Some of the PEAR libraries used are not compatible with database prefix
names with double "_" characters (e.g. "rv__"). You should NOT install
Revive Adserver with a prefix of this format.
* Some users have reported issues of being logged out when viewing
statistics. This can be worked around by ensuring that the timezone is
correctly set in PHP.
