I’m trying to update FreePBX 13.0.144 to more recent version (13.0.147) downloaded today. While running ./install -n --dbpass="..." I get such error: Exception: fatal error reading freepbx_settings:: in file /var/www/html/admin/libraries/utility.functions.php on line 205.
The reported FreePBX version is the version of the Framework module. All of FreePBX can be updated from Module Admin. Is it possible that you are trying to do FreeBPX Distro updates? In which case you need to be using the methods outlined here: http://wiki.freepbx.org/display/PPS/Updating+FreePBX+Official+Distro
I’m looking for a way to make FreePBX work on Gentoo. It’s an experiment for me so far. I discovered that the file at http://mirror.freepbx.org/modules/packages/freepbx/freepbx-13.0-latest.tgz alters very often while updates in the Module Admin do not.
I think you are confused. They change at the same pace. Once installed you update freepbx framework through module admin. You are seeing latest change more quickly because it’s in edge mode. So go set your freepbx to edge mode.
