|
|
1. Brekeke Product Name and Version:
Sip 3.9.5.5
2. Java version:
jre 1.8.0_161
3. OS type and the version:
Windows server
4. UA (phone), gateway or other hardware/software involved:
N/A
5. Your problem:
I'm testing an upgrade from version 3.9.5.5 to the latest 3.9.5.8. I stopped the Brekeke service, got an sst backup through the web UI and copied the sip directory from under webapps, then ran the 3.9.5.8 installer as admin.
Part way through I got a 'Failed to install Brekeke SIP service.' error.
In the service-install.log I found:
Quote: |
Install failed: 8 The specified service already exists.
Failed to install service. |
Do you need to delete the Brekeke service before upgrading as well as stopping it? |

Have you uninstalled the existing Brekeke SIP Server?
If so, let you restart the Windows. |

I didn't uninstall it completely, I don't understand why I can't do an in place upgrade? Also, This is a Java webapp running in Tomcat, surely you only need to restart Tomcat? Why do you need to reboot Windows? |

You don't have to use an installer if it is a minor version update.
Just upload the sip.war file at [Update Software] page.
For updating Tomcat web server, uninstall the Brekeke SIP Server completely, reinstall it with the installer and restore the copied directory.
A rebooting Windows will clear resources the service held. |
