Upgrading via yum if you have SME Server 7.x clean (Excluding 7.3) install can now be done, you will first encounter this error:
   −
So far 7.1, 7.1.3 and 7.2 are able to yum upgrade to SME 8.

You will need to download from the [smeos/i386/SME/RPMS/yum-metadata-parser-1.0-8.el4.centos.i386.rpm yum-metadata-parser] and manually install the package as below:
 +
 
 +
rpm -Uvh --oldpackage yum-metadata-parser-1.0-8.el4.centos.i386.rpm
 +
 
 +
Then type from command line:
 +
 
 +
yum clean all
 +
 
 +
followed by:
 +
 
 +
yum upgrade --disable "*" --enable smeos
 +
 
 +
Now you should be on your way to upgrading to SME Server 8betax :)
 +
 
 +
If you have SME Server 7.3 clean install you will be able to upgrade to SME Server 8betax without any issues.
 +
 
 +
You should only do this if you are interested in helping with development/testing and of course if you find a bug remember to report to our bug tracker.
