Where oh where is the installer

[pault]

I guess this is a stupid question, since I can't find anyone asking/answering it elsewhere, but where do I get the installer? I'm trying to upgrade from 1.3.0 to 1.4.1 to see if that resolves an issue, and the installation guide and whatnot tell you what to do with the "upgrade" ".bin" file once you have it, but never where to get it. I'm on Enterprise, not Community.

Put your information on the download community edition form.

For the Enterprise Edition you get an email from Scalix when a new version is released with the Enterprise download links. Use that email (requires a username and password). Or if you didn't receive it, and you still have a valid subscription, contact Scalix Support or (preferably) your reseller and have them send you the information.

Even more specifically to the previous accurate answers, when you get the Scalix software it will be in the form of a .bin file.

Run "bash *.bin" - for example,

Code: Select all

bash scalix-11.4.1-U1-GA-enterprise-redhat-intel.bin

This will:
Present you with a license agreement
Verify the archive
Extract and unpack the archive
Present you with the README

At this point you can continue with answering the questions to upgrade, remove, or reconfigure the Scalix components, or you can ctrl-C to get out of the installer.

The installer itself can be found after the archive is extracted and unpacked. It will be in
./scalix-11.4.0.54/scalix-installer

Running it will begin with asking you if you want to upgrade, reconfigure, or uninstall Scalix components. It will skip the license agreement, the verification and extraction of the archive, and the README file.

Ahh-h-h. See, our previous systems administrator left, and I (being the only one left who knows anything about Linux) sort of inherited the Scalix server. I will look into getting these emails sent to me, now. Thanks.

And in response to LeslieW, I had read the installation manual, including installing from CLI, but it was just that one, key bit of information--where to get the .bin file to install--that was eluding me. Thank you for your detailed response though.
