| − | ===Current Release===
| |
| − | The current stable release is SME Server Release 8.0 (based on CentOS 5.8), see the Updates section below for details of incremental updates available with yum.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Our prior stable release was SME Server Release 7.6
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Mirrors===
| |
| − | Hosting of SME Server releases and contribs has been generously been provided by our mirrors
| |
| − | | |
| − | Information on how to become a mirror and the status of current mirrors is [http://wiki.contribs.org/Mirrors available here]
| |
| − | | |
| − | For a full list of mirrors see http://mirror.contribs.org/mirrors/
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===iso===
| |
| − | To download an iso select the [http://mirror.contribs.org/mirrors closest mirror], the version of SME Server you want, then the iso directory and finally the i386 directory.
| |
| − | Note that in each repo, there are two ISO images. One is named according to the released version (i.e smeserver-8.0-i386.iso), the other does not provide version information (i.e. smeserver-i386.iso). The non version ISO is the actual file and facilitates rsync updates for the mirrors. The versioned iso is actually a symlink to the non-versioned ISO so people know what version they are downloading. Both will download the same binary data to your computer.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Torrent - The fastest way to download ===
| |
| − | A Torrent for the SME Server 8.0 ISO CD image is not available at the moment.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Zsync===
| |
| − | When updates become available you will be able to update a previous version of an iso using zsync, run the command from the same directory as your existing iso. zsync uses a control file to determine whether any blocks in the file are already known to the downloader, and only downloads the new blocks. If you don't have a previous iso zsync is still a good option, it will recover an interrupted download.
| |
| − | | |
| − | To install ZSync you need to have the [http://wiki.contribs.org/Dag Dag] repository enabled:
| |
| − | {{Repository|Dag}}
| |
| − | | |
| − | yum install zsync --enablerepo=dag [no need to reboot]
| |
| − | | |
| − | cp smeserver-8.0-i386.iso smeserver-8.0.1-i386.iso [if you have a previous .iso]
| |
| − | zsync http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/releases/8/iso/i386/smeserver-8.0.1-i386.iso.zsync
| |
| − |
| |
| − | cp smeserver-7.5.1-i386.iso smeserver-7.6-i386.iso [if you have a previous .iso]
| |
| − | zsync http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/releases/7/iso/i386/smeserver-7.6-i386.iso.zsync
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Updates===
| |
| − | Upgrading to 8.x from 7.x - Upgrades from unmodified versions of SME 7.x to SME 8 is supported. If you have modified your server by installing contribs or have used any unsupported 'upgrade' scripts, you may have issues and should consider removing any incompatible contribs before upgrading.
