[Asterisk-Users] Help with upgrading 7960 SCCP to SIP

[Kevin Day]

Just to share my solution with the rest of the list... You can't 
upgrade from a really old version straight to 7.x. You have to upgrade 
to a newer (but not 7.x) version, then upgrade to 7.x.

All the details on this exact problem happen to be in the "VoIP 
Telephony with Asterisk" book by Paul Mahler, which was extraordinarily 
helpful in figuring this out. There are a LOT of steps to getting this 
upgrade to work, and Paul's explanation was much better than anything 
Cisco had.
