I would like to upgrade my Freepbx to the latest version 12 using the upgrade module under module admin. I have made a total backup of the system using Mondo Rescue, which have have safe on another machine. I also use the in-built back routine in Freepbx, which runs once a week… (and I copy these off to another machine for safe keeping).
Can anyone give me feedback on the upgrade process, and if I am likely to expect any problems? I have purchased and am using the System Admin module (just this one purchase - no more), which keeps my Freepbx all nice and up to date - the Freepbx installation is working perfectly with no problems of any kind…
You may ask why I want to upgrade when all is so well, answer being the Freepbx 12 looks so good and I fancy has some new features I can play with - and then use…
We are unaware of any problems with upgrading. We ran through hundreds of machines in testing, and there haven’t been any bugs reported on this in a while.
Just remember to upgrade everything, otherwise you’ll have errors trying to do a reload.
So will the Upgrade Modue under Module Admin do the complete version change - and change everything? (i.e. - I just run this modue and let it do its stuff).
I am told there is a Wiki page that covers the process, I have had a look but can only find the upgrade scripts to keep a version up to date, not a page that shows how to change from 5.211.65-21 to 12.
Cheers for getting back… Do you have a link for that page? I can only find in version upgrade scripts (which I dont use as I have the purchased Admin Pro module doing that for me).
I do not think the Admin Pro module does Major Releases like that. I also Run SysAdmin Pro and it does all the minor releases only… At least it never ever notified or updated the Major release for me.
