Title: SME7p1 upgrade..
Post by: bcliburn on January 15, 2006, 11:48:44 PM

I have installed SME 7p1, when p2 and or the final release come out will I be able to update them with yum, or will I have to reinstall or upgrade with the new iso?

yes, you can update it via yum to the new version without installing a new iso.
I have done that with a beta 8 to beta 9 and pre1.
The new version is shown then in the copyright footer of the server-manager screen.

Hi stefan,

this post is very similar to my previous post about the automatic updates...

I have my automatic updates turned on. I think it has been upgraded from beta8 to beta9 - my server reports this "SME Server 7.0beta9" in the copyright footer. Should it have been upgraded by YUM to pre1 yet or hasn't it been released to YUM yet?

Cheers
Aaron

I did a manual update from the shell.

yum update. That was all and afterwards I had this footer:

signal-event post-upgrade

then

signal-event reboot

After doing a yum update from 7.0b9 to Pre1

Hi Byte,

I have not performed any terminal commands on my server. I have been relying solely on the "Software Installer" in the service Manager. All Modules in the listbox have been selected to be upgraded.

Should I perform a YUM update via the command line and then the signal-event commands as you suggested????

See below - this is what I get... as you can see SHELL still reports that it is version beta9.

Should it be updating to version pre1 from Beta9 using YUM?

Burnat: I am not sure if this a bug or normal behaviour... I will definately report it as being a bug if someone can tell me that it IS in fact a bug.

I have done "yum -y upgrade" from command line to update my 7.0b8 > 7.0b9 then to 7.0pre1 all via yum and rembering to run those other commands in my post after each upgrade...

The server manager will do the same but rember to do a re-configure in the panel after doing  a YUM

It WORKED!!!  :-D

Thanks for your help... I think my problem was exactly what you said. I wasn't doing a RECONFIGURE from the server-manager and/or wasn't using the signal-event commands.

I thought that because it was setup to do it all automatically that I wouldn't have to do the reconfigure reboots etc
