tkiziah Posted September 25, 2018 Report Posted September 25, 2018 The installation documentation recommends that Kazoo be installed on CentOS 6.4 or 6.5 because FreeSWITCH recommends CentOS. Is CentOS still 2600Hz's preferred platform now that Debian 8 is the FreeSWITCH reference platform?
tomas_ Posted September 26, 2018 Report Posted September 26, 2018 I would recommend CentOS 7 instead of 6. But Debian might be better, that I don't know (we're using CentOS 7 in our cluster without any major issues (besides RPM versions of js and librabbitmq))
Administrators mc_ Posted September 26, 2018 Administrators Report Posted September 26, 2018 Hi @tkiziah The installation guide still recommends CentOS 7: https://docs.2600hz.com/sysadmin/doc/install/install_via_centos7/ Packaging for Debian was almost complete but there seems to be a few issues left to be ironed out before it can be recommended. That said, I run my dev environment by building all the components from source on Debian so if you are comfortable with that, you can use the install guide but adapt it for Debian. You'll have to do the systemd stuff yourself (if you want it) and some other things but for the most part it works pretty well (for dev; I would not recommend for prod).
tkiziah Posted September 26, 2018 Author Report Posted September 26, 2018 Thank you @mc_ I will use the centos7 installation guide to get started and familiarize myself with the platform but am very excited to hear that Debian support is in the works. Once I become more familiar with building Kazoo I can hopefully help with the Debian packaging. @ tomas_ I ran into the same issue with RabbitMQ last night but have not had the chance to work through it so thank you for pointing me in the right direction!
tomas_ Posted September 26, 2018 Report Posted September 26, 2018 Every updade we do nowadays we need to exclude both js and librabbitmq; yum update --exclude=js --exclude=librabbitmq
Administrators mc_ Posted September 26, 2018 Administrators Report Posted September 26, 2018 If you stick to `yum update kazoo-*` you shouldn't have a problem; its the wide-open updates that mess things up.
tkiziah Posted October 10, 2018 Author Report Posted October 10, 2018 Are there any other steps that are recommended when updating other then ‘yum update kazoo-*’?
tomas_ Posted October 11, 2018 Report Posted October 11, 2018 It might be a good idea to update the system also, and not only kazoo-*. However, like I wrote above, if upgrading js and librabbitmq things gets messed up....
