Hi Carlos,
Just one clarification then, am I right in thinking that, after I have installed a release version of FS, if I then install one of the SVNs over it, it will keep all configuration etc. in tact, i.e., I won't lose anything that I've changed in the conf files etc?
Regards Dave
Hi Dave, Your best bet would be to keep 1.0.4 and SVN in separate installation directories since the SVN version will install default copies of the conf folder and overwrite your existing config. This is no different than your typical Windows App install file. You could just install SVN in a temp location and copy out all but the conf folder to your current 1.0.4 location. FYI, I just uploaded SVN 15355. regards, Carlos

Jeff,
thanks a lot for the reply. I was a little confused by the fact that the "SVN Snapshot" was some 10MB smaller than the Full 1.0.4 file so worried that I might lose something. As you say though, think that I'll cross my fingers and try the updated release. I am running FreeSwitch on a test machine at the moment until the target hardware arrives - hopefully tomorrow, so I can afford to have a little play.
I usually try to update the svn file at least once a month. I have a new version ready that was compiled last night but am ironing out login issues with the FS dudes for upload access. Also, the SVN snapshot now includes binaries for 32 and 64 bit. It no longer includes flite though as the install file was approaching 80MB in size. I will revisit this later if others feel it important to include flite.
You mentioned FreePBX V3. I had been fumbling around trying to work out what this is and from what I've read, it seems to provide a GUI Front End for configuring FreeSwitch ?
Yes, it's still in development phase and as such not ready for production use.
I am guessing that while it has been installed with FreeSwitch, I then need to run the FreePBX Installer to update the FreePBX/FreeSwitch configuration on my hardware ?
When I start FreeSwitch, it does not automatically load the WAMPServer.
Freeswitch and WAMPServer are independant of each other. WAMPServer is
bundled in this install for the purpose of FreePBX as MySQL, Apache and PHP are all required components of FreePBX.
When I start WAMPServer manually, and open up localhost (127.0.0.1) in a
web browser, I can see the WampServer logo and various tools such as phpinfo() and phpmyadmin. FreePBX is there under Your Projects.
If you want to configure FreePBX you need to click on the FreePBX.url shortcut that gets created on your desktop.
When I opened this up the first time, it appeared to want to install FreePBX over FreeSwitch, I tried to abort this when it was going to overwrite some FreeSwitch conf files and I thought I'd better not go on until I had a better idea what was happening. I backed out of the FreePBX install and now I can't get the FreePBX or phpmyadmin pages up again (missing files) so it looks like I'm going to have to reinstall anyway.
So, for next time,am I right in thinking that I should proceed with running the FreePBX install from the WAMPServer menu ?
No, launch it from the shortcut as stated above. Unfortunately, at this time there is very little user documentation on configuring FreePBX. Here is the link to the developer's info: http://www.freepbx.org/v3
regards,
Carlos

Hi Dave,
These are supported by "Carlos Talbot" . They also include Freepbx v3
Just as you said freeswitch-1.0.4.exe is the tagged release and freeswitch.exe is a newer svn snapshot.
There should be no problems installing the new version allthough best to just try and see!
Not sure why the newest one is from October 7th.

Hi,
I have read the Docs on the Wiki (
http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Installation_Guide#Precompiled_Binaries)
but am still not sure of what the different Windows install files are. Currently, the Windows Installer directory contains :-
LATEST_SVN_15106 - 6 Bytes
freeswitch-1.0.4.exe - 42 Megabytes
freeswitch.exe - 32 Megabytes
I have installed the freeswitch-1.0.4.exe file which is dated 3rd September. The freeswitch.exe file is dated 7th October and think that it contains the minor updates since 3rd September ?
Could someone who knows FreeSwitch under windows help me understand the two files please ?
I chickened out of running the later exe in case it did something to the running install of FreeSwitch 1.0.4, is it safe to run the newer exe with the old one already installed ? What will it actually do ?
