Subsonic Forum

Hi,

This has probably already been asked, and if so, apologies for the repeated post - I did look through the forum but couldn't find anything relevant.

I have Subsonic running on a CentOS machine, the web interface told me about version 4.8 so I followed the following steps to update:

1. Stopped subsonic services using terminal

Code: Select all

service subsonic stop

2. Downloaded the standalone package from the subsonic website.
3. Unpacked the tar.gz package into /var/subsonic/standalone
4. Edited the subsonic.sh file to reflect the relevant port settings etc.
5. Restarted the subsonic services using terminal

Code: Select all

service subsonic start

However, when I re-open the web console and go to the "About" page, it still states I am running version 4.7.

Any ideas as to where I'm going wrong?

Many thanks in advance.

Updating the subsonic.sh file is doing basically nothing. What you need to update is the .war and .jar files in there. Where they go on a CentOS machine though, who knows. Do a search for them. For Debian base I think it was /usr/share/subsonic/.

Thank you for your response.

The .war and .jar files get replaced when the package is unpacked. I've tested this by clearing the standalone folder (moved them somewhere else) and unpacking the package into the empty folder - the .war and .jar files reappear. Surely this must mean these are the updated files if they are in the 4.8 package?

Thanks,
