Upgrade 2.0.9 to 2.2 using RPM packages

[jamesrpt]

Hello I am trying to upgrade my 2.0.9 server to 2.2 using :

rpm -ivh http://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/2.2/rh...el6.noarch.rpm

I get the following message:

file /etc/yum.repos.d/zabbix.repo from install of zabbix-release-2.2-1.el6.noarch conflicts with file from package zabbix-release 2.0-1.el6.noarch

I was able to get past this rpm using the --replacefiles but I suspect this is not the correct thing to do as the subsequent "yum install" commands produced similar conflict messages. This is running on a CentOS 6 server.

Is there a way to upgrade this server using the packages?

Thank you,

James

I would like to know this as well!

Peteris,

I was able to get this installed this morning.

I changed the -ivh to -Uvh then ran "yum update". A short time later I started the zabbix-server. When I launched the web server it showed the 2.2 version.

Hi! You should do it like this:

rpm -Uvh http://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/2.2/rhel/6/x86_64/zabbix-release-2.2-1.el6.noarch.rpm
yum clean all
yum update

Where "U" in "rpm -Uvh" is for "update".
That's all

Works like a charm! Thank you!

Thanks.

I wasn't able to find that information in the upgrade documentation. I might just be blind.
