    How to upgrade 2.0.0 to 2.0.1 (and future versions)

    Hey, I'm running 2.0.0 right now and I see 2.0.1 has been released, and 2.0.2 is just around the corner. It looks like you need to compile it from scratch and update, but I can't find any clear-cut instructions on how to do so.

    I installed 2.0.0 from the preloaded ISO, running in a VM on ESXi 5.0.

    I don't think I really need to upgrade right now, but it would be great to know how to do it for the future.

    edit: oh dang i didn't see this thread posted yesterday.

    he says "I'm install new binaries and update front-end files, actual version is 2.0.1, that's all"

    so basically drag the new files over the old files?

    ....

    So from the "upgrade procedure"

    1 Stop Zabbix server.. done.

    2 Back up the existing Zabbix database.. not necessary because I can snapshot the whole VM.

    3 Back up configuration files, PHP files and Zabbix binaries.. not necessary for me.

    4 Install new server binaries.. maybe I just need help compiling after all. I don't know what commands to do when compiling. What I did was download the 2.0.1 source package to a folder on the system, extract, and run "./configure --enable-server --enable-agent --with-mysql --enable-ipv6 --with-net-snmp --with-libcurl" which I'm just guessing is a compatible string with the settings that come with the appliance. It errored saying there is no C compiler in $path.

    I believe you need glibc installed. I'm not 100% certain, but at least you may have a clue.

    We need to know what OS you're running

    For Centos 6.2 before configuring the install I needed to install the prerequisites. One of these was "yum install glibc-devel"

      Just the Zabbix Appliance. "The Appliance is based on OpenSuSE Linux with MySQL back-end. Zabbix software is pre-installed and pre-configured for trouble free deployment."
