Important Notes on Upgrading


        There is a bug in 4.0.4 that breaks upgrading using the web user
        interface.  Specifically, it disables use of the CentOS
        repositories during the upgrade, which causes some prerequisites
        to be unavailable, which makes the upgrade fail.  The bug has
        been fixed in 4.2 (and a bunch of other improvements to the
        upgrade interface have been made too).
        
The best way to avoid the problem is to just do the upgrade from the
shell command line (you must be logged in as 'root'):  


      * Check your yum repository configuration to make sure that it
        points to the stable release area:
        
        [sipxecs-stable]
        name=SIPfoundry sipXecs pbx - latest stable version
        
baseurl=http://sipxecs.sipfoundry.org/pub/sipXecs/LatestStable/CentOS/$releasever/$basearch/RPM
        gpgcheck=0
        enabled=1
        
      * Run 'yum update -y'.
      * Reboot.
      * After the upgrade go to System -> Servers and click on the
        server in question and press Send Profiles.

If you have multiple systems in a cluster (all managed by one Management
server), upgrade all the systems before you reboot, and then do the Send
Profiles on each from the management interface.

At this time we don't have 64 bit rpms built (those build servers got
turned off a while ago for some reason - we'll try to get them back on
line soon.   There are not and will not be 64bit ISO images, and I
suggest using 32bit for any new systems).
