3 === Information for upgrading between Asterisk versions
5 === These files document all the changes that MUST be taken
6 === into account when upgrading between the Asterisk
7 === versions listed below. These changes may require that
8 === you modify your configuration files, dialplan or (in
9 === some cases) source code if you have your own Asterisk
10 === modules or patches. These files also include advance
11 === notice of any functionality that has been marked as
12 === 'deprecated' and may be removed in a future release,
13 === along with the suggested replacement functionality.
15 === UPGRADE-1.2.txt -- Upgrade info for 1.0 to 1.2
16 === UPGRADE-1.4.txt -- Upgrade info for 1.2 to 1.4
17 === UPGRADE-1.6.txt -- Upgrade info for 1.4 to 1.6

21 ===========================================================
26 - ENUM query functions now return a count of -1 on lookup error to
27 differentiate between a failed query and a successful query with 0 results
28 matching the specified type.
31 - Files listed below have been updated to be more consistent with how Asterisk
32 parses configuration files. This makes configuration files more consistent
33 with what is expected across modules.
35 - cdr.conf: [general] and [csv] sections
40 - DBDelTree now correctly returns an error when 0 rows are deleted just as
41 the DBDel action does.
45 - A new option "tonezone" for setting default tonezone for the channel driver
51 - This module now expects an 'extra' column in the database for data added
52 using the CELGenUserEvent() application.
55 - ConfBridge's dialplan arguments have changed and are not
59 - The format interpreter formats/format_sln16.c for the file extension
60 '.sln16' has been removed. The '.sln16' file interpreter now exists
61 in the formats/format_sln.c module along with new support for sln12,
62 sln24, sln32, sln44, sln48, sln96, and sln192 file extensions.
65 - A bindaddr must be specified in order for the HTTP server
66 to run. Previous versions would default to 0.0.0.0 if no
67 bindaddr was specified.
70 - The default value for 'context' and 'parkinglots' in gtalk.conf has
71 been changed to 'default', previously they were empty.
74 - The mohinterpret=passthrough setting is deprecated in favor of
78 - Execution no longer continues after applications that do dialplan jumps
79 (such as app.goto). Now when an application such as app.goto() is called,
80 control is returned back to the pbx engine and the current extension
81 function stops executing.
82 - the autoservice now defaults to being on by default
83 - autoservice_start() and autoservice_start() no longer return a value.
86 - Mark QUEUE_MEMBER_PENALTY Deprecated it never worked for realtime members
87 - QUEUE_MEMBER is now R/W supporting setting paused, ignorebusy and penalty.
90 - The internal Asterisk database has been switched from Berkeley DB 1.86 to
91 SQLite 3. An existing Berkeley astdb file can be converted with the astdb2sqlite3
92 utility in the UTILS section of menuselect. If an existing astdb is found and no
93 astdb.sqlite3 exists, astdb2sqlite3 will be compiled automatically. Asterisk will
94 convert an existing astdb to the SQLite3 version automatically at runtime. If
95 moving back from Asterisk 10 to Asterisk 1.8, the astdb2bdb utility can be used
96 to create a Berkeley DB copy of the SQLite3 astdb that Asterisk 10 uses.
99 - The AMI protocol version was incremented to 1.2 as a result of changing two
100 instances of the Unlink event to Bridge events. This change was documented
101 as part of the AMI 1.1 update, but two Unlink events were inadvertently left
105 - All modules in the addons, apps, bridge, cdr, cel, channels, codecs,
106 formats, funcs, pbx, and res have been updated to include MODULEINFO data
107 that includes <support_level> tags with a value of core, extended, or deprecated.
108 More information is available on the Asterisk wiki at
109 https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+Module+Support+States
111 Deprecated modules are now marked to not build by default and must be explicitly
112 enabled in menuselect.
115 - Setting of HASH(SIP_CAUSE,<slave-channel-name>) on channels is now disabled
116 by default. It can be enabled using the 'storesipcause' option. This feature
117 has a significant performance penalty.
120 - The default UDPTL port range in udptl.conf.sample differed from the defaults
121 in the source. If you didn't have a config file, you got 4500 to 4599. Now the
122 default is 4000 to 4999.
