D7 RMS Beta | D7 RMS RC1 | D7 RMS RC2 DIFF Report
to those who were interested and wanted to know, of course trying to stay ahead of the pack, i just believed that because the code was released with a different version, that there was some relevant change made to the RMS. well ack, wasted my time.
I did inquire of boonex what the DIFF was on these releases and of course got no answer. So after installing the RC2 which was as big of a waste of time as installing RC1 over D7 Beta. but hey live and learn.
[root@rms2 src]# diff -urN RMS-LINUX-v.7.0-Beta.tar.gz RMS-LINUX-v.7.0-RC.tar.gz
[root@rms2 src]#
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 29087906 Jul 14 17:34 RMS-LINUX-v.7.0-Beta.tar.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 29087906 Nov 17 17:05 RMS-LINUX-v.7.0-RC.tar.gz
Just thought you'd find it interesting.
and then further research was that we discovered that there was no difference at all between D7 RMS Beta and D7 RMS RC2

hope this saves somebody some time. since i run multiple installations of RMS, this was painstaking for me. and as i said, it would be noted that if you change a version number and or name, that would indicate that there has something been changed on that fileset in order to warrant that name change.

The new Dolphin solution is powered by UNA Community Management System.
Here it is from those of us who are to stupid according to some to be able to figure anything out.
You had: D7 RMS Beta: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 29087906 Jul 14 17:34 RMS-LINUX-v.7.0-Beta.tar.gz
And you updated it to:
D7 RMS RC -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 29087906 Nov 17 17:05 RMS-LINUX-v.7.0-RC.tar.gz
The difference is in the name, as noone really wants to trust anything that see more
a file name does not now nor ever did constitute a change in which DIFF would locate and report. that is the title of this post.
a file name would not be a reason for somebody who has spent their time and efforts to install RMS to reinstall because of a NAME.
In computing, diff is a file comparison utility that outputs the differences between two files. It is typically used to show the changes between a file and see more
2. Not putting my "mouth" on you. Pretty sure I wouldn't like the taste if I did. Not implying anything, but your definitely not my type John.
do yourself a favor, and find somewhere else to post your negative comments. they are not welcome on the blog i created, and they are not welcome on this site.
it would behoove you to refrain from posting anything further on this blog. your interest and knowledge are not needed nor desired.

The same thing should be done with D7 upgrades. Boonex should supply a list of changed files and a zip archive that contains only the changed files. I'd like to be able to unzip the archive on the server without overwriting files that haven't changed.
so the gist of this post is to let those know who have "shared" RMS or have installed on a dedicated machine. If the individual did not install the RMS and paid for the installation which many do, then they can save themselves a few bucks for the installation, because its not necessary.

Before anyone jumps in here, keep in mind that Terabyte-Hosting "ONLY" offers "SHARED" server space (perhaps they might offer Dedicated, not sure of that one) and therefore it's a simple fact that to cover "ALL" the RMS needs of "ALL" your clients that you would only have to install 1 RMS. After all, your see more

to entertain your negative attitude or negative comments
never insinuated this was my diskspace. ha ha ha ha, talk about reading what was posted HELLO.
the rest of your post was correct in its form. that is the purpose of the blog is to share information. information that was not shared, and from the pretense of the fileset that was offered for download, it would be assumed that an upgrade of RMS was necessary.
the purpose of this see more
So, with that in mind then your stating that the purpose of the blog is to share the information YOU choose to share and that no others are permitted to share any information or provide any additional insight in any manner outside of what you have previously stated in the blog.
Oh, now I get it. Sorry, I'm a little slow today and all. Please, allow see more
Perhaps I'll just withhold his feeding tube instead. LOL
Now that we all know there is no difference, how about getting my domain setup on it, and send me the ip and port info so i can finish my upgrade.

He needs to grow up, and stop spoiling this place for everybody, not only on the blogs but on the forums too.
Is there no moderators on here then that can sort members like him out. His attitude really gives this place a bad feel.
A more productive discussion here would be how to easily upgrade the RMS without the bickerings. I'd like to see Dosdawg's energy being put into simple instructions of upgrading RMS via root (as I have a VPS and am ok with using root for basic needs) than having to defend himself and his company in order to protect the image.
Thankd DosDawg for posting see more
i will certainly stay on top of the Release of RMS and keep those who need the information informed as best i can.
thanks for the positive feedback.
