Hi Danny, I understand (and welcome) the separate src directories. This would allow me to 'revert' should I feel the need (assuming I can just re-compile over each one). I just need to know if I can re-compile over the existing first.
Thanks for your reply. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Danny Nicholas Sent: 26 July 2010 14:15 To: 'Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion' Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] 'dirty' upgrade of 1.4 >From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users- >Subject: [asterisk-users] 'dirty' upgrade of 1.4 >Apologies if this has been asked before. >Does anyone know if I can simply recompile * 1.4.34 over 1.4.24.1? >Ie. perform an upgrade from 1.4.24.1 to 1.4.34 by just rebuilding the source files for 1.4.34 over the top of the existing 1.4.24.1 files. >Also, will I need to stop * to perform this routine - or can I just 'upgrade' and then do a * 'restart'? Question 1 - unless you are "un-tarring" to a specific directory, you would have /usr/local/src/asterisk-1.4.24.1 and /usr/local/src/asterisk-1.4.34 segregated source trees. Question 2 - you don't "have" to stop asterisk, but you should (best practice?) since installing a new release usually involves removing/replacing the .so files in /usr/lib/asterisk/modules. -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
