Topic: SME Server 8 - Enabled Repositories

[imcintyre]

I just upgraded my 7.5.1 install to SME Server 8 beta6 and am concerned regarding the enabled repositories shown in Server-Manager Software Install  panel.

The enabled repositories are Centos-os, centos-updates, smeserver-addons, smeserver-extras, smeserver-os, smeserver-updates but not smeserver- updates testing. This is exactly as it was under 7.5.1.

Please advise if this should this have changed when I upgraded the install using the CD and then pointed the repositories to the SME 8 repositories using;

db yum_repositories print | grep '^sme' | cut -d= -f1 | while read repo
do
    db yum_repositories setprop $repo MirrorList \
    http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/smeserver/mirrorlist/$repo-8
done

and then;

/etc/e-smith/events/actions/generic_template_expand yum-modify
signal-event post-upgrade
signal-event reboot

After these commands

The output of db yum_repositories show is;

Please advise if this should this have changed when I upgraded the install using the CD and then pointed the repositories to the SME 8 repositories using;

You got that command from this page: http://wiki.contribs.org/SME_Server_8 ?
That is under the instructions to upgrade with yum, not with the CD, so you didn't need to do that.

[imcintyre]

You are right, I guess I misunderstood the line,

Reset repositories to SME 8, see below, bug bugzilla:5705. This is fixed for SME Server 8.0 Beta 6

When I read the bug, it is for a clean install with a restore from 7.* backup. That is not what I did, I did an upgrade.

Is this something that needs to be undone?

and

regarding the original question about what is shown in Server-Manager software install panel

Thanks for your help.

I did some more reading and can see now why the repositories listed in Server-Manager do not change.

I updated the page in the wiki so that the instructions are "more better"
