[Opensim-users] OpenSim 0.7.1 upgrade

[Clive Gould]

Hi everyone

Thanks for you advice on the .ini file differences between versions 0.7 and
0.7.1

As usual, I have blogged the upgrade process on our test server as follows:

The next step is to try to get Wifi working...

Best wishes

Clive

Clive, in 0.7.1 there are a lot of lesser customized settings now in
the file OpenSimDefaults.ini which is loaded ahead of
OpenSim.ini.  You can change OpenSim.ini based on OpenSim.ini.example
and also copy out and override less commonly used parameters by
copying sections over from OpenSimDefaults.ini

Effectively, yes.  These have been migrated into OpenSimDefaults.ini and are
overriden in OpenSim.ini only if required.
