Title: Module versions in SME7
Post by: judgej on February 17, 2006, 02:59:19 PM

Is there anywhere I can get a simple list of the versions of software included with SME7 (at least the versions in the ISO, bearing in mind that yum may upgrade some).

In particular, I'd like to know what versions of MySQL and PHP are supplied as standard.

I've searched for 45 minutes, coming up with lots of interesting posts and documents, but no simple list. So, yes, I have tried "search" ;-)

Thanks,

-- JJ

Judge,

  There are a couple of methods you could use.  First, for just php and mysql try the --version or -v on the command line.  This will give you some good information

  php --version
  mysql --version
  perl --version

  This will work fairly well is you know how to invoke the program, but what if you don't know... or only know a partial name?  Then try this.

rpm -qa |grep my

The -qa show all the rpms installed, and the grep sorts through them for the string my

Hope this helps.

  Cool... you have a much better answer.

Yes, easy to do once it is installed. However, I am trying to find out before I install the server whether it will be suitable for some upcoming development work, and if not, how many contributions I am going to have to install get bring it up to the level I need.

They are useful tips, none-the-less :-)

Very nice - thankyou. That is just what I need.

Can I ask - is that a permanent feature of your site, and if so, is it worth linking to it from the documentation here? There is aweful lot of good information in there, for anyone concerned with installing, upgrading an deploying SME server. I do remember lists like this on contribs a while ago, but they seem to be gone now, or are very well hidden.

guys,

credit where credit is due!

The work I (merely) linked to is by  IAN WELLS
...he is a member/lead of the SME DOC TEAM
...so I personally do consider it to be "permanent"
...especially since he's done it "about 20times"

:-D  ! THANKS IAN  ! :-D
