I'm having problems with the upgrade.

The first 2 lines work fine.

When I try to use rpmbuild, it runs for about 1 minute and then I get:

You need to install rpm-build: up2date -u rpm-build
You are also missing /usr/src/redhat, so create it.

As for the README error, I've uploaded a new source rpm which *should* fix the problem :) If it doesn't, send me an email: support@directadmin.com

John

[vandal]

works for me good. no problems.

[Mystical]

Thanks, the new RPMs worked

[sander815]

this only upgrades exim [whatever version] to 4.43? and thats all?

[vandal]

this fully installs the new exim 4.43 yes.

[Chrysalis]

edited

installed fine

[PauGasol]

What are the new features or fixed bugs? in the official page i only can see the change log of 4.40.

[werwin01]

[dannygoh]

rh9 and mailscanner + clamav

[Geffy]

just wondering as you have given rpm installation instructions, how would I go about doing this in FreeBSD 4.x as I think this might fix the current non-starting issue I am having with exim 4.24

[spirit]

when i do this command: rpm -Uvh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/da_exim-4.43-1.i386.rpm

i get this error:
file /etc/aliases from install of da_exim-4.43-1 conflicts with file from package setup-2.5.33-1

Im workin with fedora core 2

[spirit]

Someone know this error??

It sounds as if DA has an errir on the RPM; standard RPMs should load the new files and backup the old ones with a unique extension.

I don't feel comfortable telling you how to get around it because you could completely break email if I'm wrong.

So I suggest you contact DA support.

Jeff,

I got a reply from support [at] diractadmin [dot] com and the solution is:

rpm -Uvh --force /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/da_exim-4.43-1.i386.rpm

[jlasman]

Thanks.

But I still wonder why it needs the force. If I'd have recommended the force and it broke something you would have blamed me.

And I don't know as much about the RPM as the DA staff.

Is everything working properly?

Thanks.

Is this the URL for Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS3?

Which RPM did you use for CentOS? (Sorry, I'm having to get re-acquainted with rmps. I've been using Gentoo for the past few years.)

TIA,
=C=

[torp]

I do: rpm -Uvh da_exim....i386.rpm

I receive the following message:

1:da_exim warning: /etc/exim.conf created as /etc/exim.conf.rpmnew

Does this mean anything? Would I have to go over my exim.conf after this, to repair? I'm using the Really Stop Spam exim.conf from jlasman

[OxnardMontalvo]

It means that there was an exim.conf included in the rpm but since you already had one in place it put the new one in exim.conf.rpmnew. if you have working exim.conf then I wouldn't worry about it too much.

HTH,

=C=

[jlasman]

Just make sure that your /etc/exim.conf file is the right one.

You may need to uncomment the spamassassin directives.

Jeff

[werwin01]

I downloaded
http://files.directadmin.com/services/freebsd5.1/da_exim-4.43-1.tgz
for my FreeBSD 5.3.

I did:

box# pkg_delete exim-4.42-1
box# pkg_add da_exim-4.43-1.tgz

This right?

[MagnuM]

Where can I find the new Exim version for Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS3?

Can someone please help me with a step by step instruction how to install on Fedora Core 2.

I've been looking through this forum but I am getting a bit confused.

Regards,
Erik H.

[Dennis]

Hi Erik,

To install on FC2 you need to do the following:

first get the update (as root!!):

wget http://files.directadmin.com/services/fedora_2/da_exim-4.43-1.i386.rpm

Then Update your Exim:

rpm -Uvh --force da_exim-4.43-1.i386.rpm

Then restart the service and you are ready!

Only Exim 4.44 is already released and 4.50 is just discovered.....But are updated on FC2 the same way.

Good luck!

Dennis
