Ugrade to 2.2.2

[exness]

Hi guys,
I do have some problems upgrading my database.
No automatically upgrade process is starting.

Because of this I have this error in frontend:
Database error: The frontend does not match Zabbix database.

I can't find any upgrade process in any log file... :-(
If the server starts up it will always start with 2.0.1...

What do I wrong?

Here some values:

zabbix@SZAB01:~$ grep -r "VERSION" /home/zabbix/public_html/include/defines.inc.php
define('ZABBIX_VERSION',     '2.2.2');
define('ZABBIX_API_VERSION', '2.2.2');
define('ZABBIX_DB_VERSION',      2020000);
zabbix@SZAB01:~$ zabbix_server --version
Zabbix server v2.2.2 (revision 42525) (12 February 2014)
Compilation time: Feb 24 2014 13:08:35

PS: I have a postgres database 8.4

Best Regards,
Florian

Yeah! Forgot to copy over this new files...
Sorry for my mistakes.

But thanks anyway, upgrade successfully!

Hello,

I have the same problem. I'm on Zabbix Appliance 2.0. I would like to upgrade to 2.2 (I do exactly this https://www.zabbix.com/forum/showthread.php?t=27674)

But I have "Database error: The frontend does not match Zabbix database." after.

And when I do :


Zabbix 2.0 ? Wtf ?

[thomphi]

I don't know what do I find in /etc/init.d/zabbix-server ?

[pc99096]

if you really don't know, why are you doing something like zabbix upgrade?

try this:
cat /etc/init.d/zabbix_server | grep zabbix | grep server


or try
find / -name zabbix_server

find / -name zabbix-server

and then check all of them, you will probably have one 2.0 and one 2.2 version

Ok I have this :

[pc99096]

last 2 lines, one of them is 2.0 and the other 2.2
you need to edit the /etc/init.d/zabbix_server file to point to the other zabbix_server binary, clear?

[thomphi]

And how I know ? Because inside it's like :
$@`$@:///.../@$***¨%.;;;:::@&&&@

[pc99096]

cat /etc/init.d/zabbix_server | grep zabbix_server
or
cat /etc/init.d/zabbix_server | grep ZABBIX_BIN

[thomphi]

ZABBIX_SERVER_BIN = /usr/sbin/zabbix_server

So?

[pc99096]

change to:
ZABBIX_SERVER_BIN = /usr/local/sbin/zabbix_server


and please don't ask me how to edit a text file

then /etc/init.d/zabbix_server restart
