[Asterisk-Users] :: Migrating to 1.0.3 => Attention. ::

[Jefferson Carvalho]

Hello list ,

I´d like to announce possible problems with migrating any version prior to
1.0.2 to 1.0.3.

Pay attention :

1. Codecs

Codecs names/description have been changed .

For example :

versions <= 1.0.2

For example :

If u used

allow=G723.1 , now u have to use : allow=g723 *  ( NO CAPS ) !!!
allow=G729 , now u have to use : allow=g729 * ( NO CAPS ) !!!
allow=iLBC , now u have to use : allow=ilbc *  ( NO CAPS ) !!!

Please , verify all configurations files ( sip.conf , iax.conf ) before 
upgrade.
If u see some message like , codec error , is it.

Good look ,
