Re: [otrs] Upgrade to 2.4.6
Typically, when an RPM updates a system, it will back up key config files, etc. Here is an article talking about .rpmnew and .rpmsave files, etc. and how to deal with them. http://www.linux.com/archive/feature/121476 D On 2010-01-13, at 1:09 PM, Stephan Lang wrote: Hi @all, as this is a recurring Question which kept me searching for a while before getting answered here, I’d like to repeat my request to add a UPDATING or PATCHING file and point to this file in the UPGRADING and INSTALL files.

Ok, I got it working. Stupid mistake, There was a use statement that had to be uncommented. I thought it was meant to be a comment. doh!
