Yum update breaks freepbx/asterisk

General Help
1

I installed freepbx about 3 weeks ago. It is running asterisk 13.12.1. Running yum update installs asterisk 13.13.1-1, and breaks it. (asterisk dies). Because of time issues, I reverted to 13.12.1.

Before i spend too much time trying to diagnose this, and maybe reinvent a solution someone else has found, can anyone share a quick solution to this? I have 2 installations affected, and a third one next week.

Here is the yum list that breaks it. Everything else is up to date.

Anyone looking at this, Asterisk 13.14 doesn’t have this issue.

Hi!

Did you try starting Asterisk with

asterisk -cvvv

And look at the output produced?

There was also an unstable version of Asterisk released to the distro recently but it was short lived, is it possible that you got it?

Good luck and have a nice day!

Nick,
As stated a few secs ago, moving to asterisk 13.14 fixed the problem for me. (originally I moved to 13.13, it broke, and I backed it down, tried upgrading on another server, with the same outcome. I decided to hold off from that upgrade. When 13.14 was released, I installed it and it worked perfectly.)

Ok well 13.14 is the standard now and anyone on older version when they yum update would get 13.14 so nothing to look at but I see ten software thousand aid systems have 13.13 and it’s working for them so seems like something related to your setup or environment. Yum output doesn’t allow us to track down what your issues was.
