FEATURE AVAILABILITY ENDING WITH RELEASE 1.9

The update service is installed, when you have checked the option while setup the software. The update service is implemented by a job running periodically (e.g. every Tuesday 10:00). The job sends a request to a web service at sos-berlin.com. The contents of the file config/.version are transmitted and also the actual IP address will be sent.

If there is a newer version, two possible reactions can be configured.

  • inform about the new version with an email
  • download the new version and inform with an email

This behavior depends on the parameter ftp_automatic_downloah1. true|false.

If you run an older version (<1.3.9), you can edit the file config/scheduler.xml. Please delete in the section base the entry.

If you are running >= 1.3.9 you can delete the folder config/live/sos/update or copy it to any other folder outside "config".
