Is there any overview of the changes that were made to support AOLserver 4.5, in case I want to modify an existing installation?

Could we update the Prerequisites page to highlight the fact that AOLServer4.5 doesn't work?

https://openacs.org/doc/current/individual-programs.html

I have OpenACS 5.0.4 working with AOLServer 4.5. I would have opted for 4.0.10 if I was aware of problems.

The compatibility matrix is your friend
https://openacs.org/xowiki/openacs-compatibility-matrix

aolserver 4.5 requires OpenACS 5.2

The page, you are pointing to, is not mentioning aolserver 4.5.

Or more precisely, the xowiki compatibility matrix is your friend :) Thanks, AOLServer 4.5 is working well for me at the moment.

I didn't know AOLServer 4.5 was incompatible with OpenACS 5.0.4 and earlier. When upgrading I had an issue with the content type for text/html. This hack/patch enabled me to upgrade to OpenACS 5.2.3:
