I remember seeing something about this but I can't find it. How do I update everything at once?
 
Custombuild in RC4 version has update_versions function, if you want - you can use it.
 
I think they are working most of the issues out. However, since I'm running on a production server, I won't install the new build system just yet. But, I do see some nice features in it. :)
 
If I run this command will I it still update apache 2.0 and dovecot or do i need to add something to it for that?
 
As long as you have already converted to Apache 2, yes these commands will update Apache 2. To update Dovecot, do the following:

Code: 
cd /usr/local/directadmin/customapache
./build clean
./build update
./build update_dovecot
./build dovecot

Hope this helps.
 
Jeremy, we've found that not to be true. To update Apache2, we've had to follow the instructions we found here.

smoked1, can you let us know what worked for you?

Thanks.

So, even after you convert to apache 2, you still need to follow these steps each time you want to update? The build all command won't rebuild apache 2 after you've already converted?
 
That was my experience, as I recall.

That may have been changed, or I could be mis-remembering (I don't think so; I found those notes in one of our server work logs).

You can try the first method posted, and if apache won't start (it won't, if it's not right), then use the method to which I've pointed.

Maybe John will see this and clarify how this works. I'd be curious to know. I have not converted to apache 2 yet. But, I may when the new build script comes out and is ready for production use.
 
So what would be the correct way to update my system? I think that DA has some updates available for Exim and I would like to use the DA update process.
