Hello, if i need to upgrade my liferay 7.4 GA19 (liferay-ce-portal-7.4.3.19-ga19) to Liferay GA28. Do I need to run the db_upgrade.sh script? Or can i simple replace the war file contents in ROOT.war?

Thanks,

Kevin

Run the upgrade script. And follow other upgrade information as well.

Just exchanging the ROOT.war by far is not enough. There are lots​​​​​​​ of updated files outside of the bare web application. And, from time to time, you might want to look at your Tomcat's version as well (or whatever appserver you're running)
