Asterisk 13.1.0 or 13.2?

General Help
1

I have an install that is a few weeks old (downloaded official distro) that we have been testing and noticed that it is FreePBX 12.0.45 PBX - 6.12.65-26 - Asterisk Ver. 13.1.0, should we be using Asterisk 13.2? If so how do I upgrade from 13.1 to 13.2?

Yum upgrade asterisk

Thanks Andrew… ran yum upgrade asterisk from root and returned:

[root@pbx-m ~]# yum upgrade asterisk

I have 2 FreePBX servers; one is running Asterisk 13.2 the other 13.1 I’m seeing the same thing when I run “yum upgrade asterisk” on the box running 13.1.

Did you pay attention to the key phrase. “no argument match”. Yoy are typing the upgrade wrong. Just upgrade through version switch instead.

I’m new to FreePBX and Linux in general so while I did see it, it wasn’t apparent to me that this was the cause. Running asterisk-version-switch did result in 13.2 being installed. But then again, it’s not all that obvious (to me at least) that I need to switch to version 13 from version 13 in order to install a point update. Clearly, I have a lot to learn.

Thanks for the help – Steve

You shouldn’t have been typing ‘yum upgrade asterisk’ - the machine was telling you ‘no package asterisk available’ - which is correct. Just a ‘yum upgrade’ would have been sufficient.
