[sipx-users] GUI upgrade 4.2 - 4.2.1 fails silently

2010-08-13 Thread Jesse Reynolds
I have a 4.2 system, installed from ISO (or possibly upgraded from 4.0.4, it was installed by a predecessor). The GUI tells me I should upgrade to 4.2.1. When I try and do this, it does it's dependency checking, spends a while downloading packages, then says it's rebooting. Doesn't seem like

no argument from me. too much that doesn't see unless it spans a shell in a browser and logs it for you automatically. The update from browser might have been better designed to act as a firmware update. grab the tgz (or whatever the entire package would have been), downloaded it, expanded it,

That's good to know not to bother with the GUI updater. I've now got remote shell access, hoorah. So, currently /etc/yum.repos.d contains many CentOS sections, I assume I leave all those and just replace the [sipXecs-stable] section at the end of the file with the following (from
