Important Notes

Deprecating Notice

Please read VoipNow Deprecating Notice before going further.

Before Upgrade

MySQL and Elasticsearch database

The new version contains significant MySQL and Elasticsearch database optimizations. Unfortunately, due to these improvements, a reindex is necessary, which might take hours on large databases. However, we made available a script that updates the databases prior to the actual VoipNow 5.2.5 upgrade, without downtime.

So, it's highly recommended to download this script:

https://www.4psa.com/software/voipnow5dbupgrade.sh

and run it on the Infrastructure Controller overnight or when the database is not heavily utilized.

System functionality will not be impacted while the script is running. Once the script has completed, you can proceed with VoipNow installation.

Hubring database

If you are running a distributed setup with more than one Hubring node, please open an upgrade assistance ticket in 4PSA Help Desk.

Installation/Upgrade

In order to install or upgrade to VoipNow 5.2.5, please use the installer from:
