Checking for updates and updating

Warning

The update functions work for the same major branch only, i.e. you can update this way from 5.3.1 to 5.3.2 for example. Please do these steps to update from version 5.2 to 5.3

Do the following to check for availability of a new installation archive:

cd /usr/local/FlashphonerWebCallServer/bin
sudo ./webcallserver check_update
Updating the server can be done with the following commands:

cd /usr/local/FlashphonerWebCallServer/bin
sudo ./webcallserver update

To start the update you will need to confirm stopping the server.

If a new installation archive is available, it is downloaded to the /tmp directory and the update of the server is then started using install.sh -silent.

Free disk space checking before update

Since build 5.2.1981 a free disk space available is checked before update. If the free space is less then 1 Gb, the istallation process will be stopped without any changes, and the following message will be displayed

ERROR: Not enough space to install properly: less than 1048576 kbytes

A timeout for update checking and downloading

Since build 5.2.1981 it is possible to set a maximum timeout in seconds for update checking and downloading operations

sudo ./webcallserver check_update --update-timeout 10
sudo ./webcallserver update --update-timeout 10

The default timeout is 10 seconds.
