Openfire upgrade

Posted in Gentoo, Linux by Matthew on March 6th, 2008

I noticed there was an Openfire (OSS Jabber server suite) upgrade in Gentoo’s portage, so that gave me the shakes to upgrade. I don’t know why, I just like to upgrade things. I guess I like the challenge of fixing things if/when they break. Sure enough, it was broke.

So for any of you openfire users out there, here is the fix. I tried messing with a bunch of settings (backing up my original MySQL database first) and nothing seemed to help. After scrolling through all of the settings in the admin console, I noticed that the server no longer liked the self rolled SSL certificates. A quick click and the server generated new ones. Restart the openfire server and I was back in business.

I am still one small version behind (3.4.4 versus the current 3.4.5), but I was just to lazy to create a custom ebuild today…

Upgrades

Posted in Gentoo, Linux, Server Stuff by Matthew on July 29th, 2007

I had some server upgrades today. I upgraded MySQL to 5.0.44 and PHP to 5.2.3, both of the stable versions in Gentoo’s portage. So far so good!

$ emerge -pu world

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating world dependencies... done!

I do like keeping things up to date.
