Download & Releases

4.0.1 (stable)

Release 4.0.1 has been published on 3rd November 2009.

Please read the ILIAS 4.0 features report for information about major changes and new features of this version!

Information about first time installation can be found here.

ILIAS 4.0 does not support MySQL 4.1.x anymore. You need at least MySQL 5.0.x or higher. Minimum PHP Version is PHP 5.1.3.

Before upgrading an ILIAS installation to 4.0 you will need to upgrade to 3.10 first. Instructions for updating ILIAS can be found in section 3 of the general installation instructions. For major updates (e.g. 3.10.x -> 4.0.x) the safest proceeding is, to upgrade a copy of your productive system first and test whether everything works ok.

Other Changes

If you already implemented your own skin for ILIAS 4.0.0: Due to an accessibility fix, we had to add new blocks in the template file "templates/default/adm_content.html". You should add these blocks to your file, if you made local changes to it.

<div class="il_HeaderInner">
<!-- BEGIN headerbl --><h1 class="ilHeader"><!-- BEGIN header_image -->
<span style="position: absolute; margin: 1px 0px 0px 5px; left: 25px;">
<img style="vertical-align:middle" alt="{IMAGE_ALT}" 
<!-- BEGIN header_image_desc -->title="{IMAGE_DESC}"<!-- END header_image_desc --> 
border="0" src="{IMG_HEADER}" id="headerimage" /></span><!-- END header_image -->
<a class="ilAccAnchor" id="il_mhead_t_focus" name="il_mhead_t_focus">{HEADER}</a></h1>
<!-- END headerbl -->
<!-- BEGIN header_desc --><div class="ilHeaderDesc">{H_DESCRIPTION}</div><!-- END header_desc -->
</div>
