Upgrade windows server from 2008 to 2019 was created by LSSSurvey1
Hi,
I have LimeSuvey installed on windows Server 2008 R2.. I am going to upgrade to windows server 2019. Would this upgrade break Limesurvey or would it still work fine?
I also have Apache 2.4 , PHP 7.1.9 and MySQL Server 5.7 . what's the most recommended version of Apache, PHP and MySQL  to upgrade to them 
Thanks!!

To run LimeSurvey 5, you need at least PHP 7.2.

I'm don't know anything about Windows Server, but you should always do a database backup before a major update.
