Hi,

I did a 'yum update' and now I'm trying to follow upgrading tutorial for version 0.9.2.

I noticed that instead of merging conf files, yum just created new conf files.

How should I know how to merge these two files to have both new settings/changes from new package versions and also keep iredmail custom settings?

For exemple, let's take a look at Nginx conf files.

nginx.conf

user apache;
worker_processes 1;
pid /var/run/nginx.pid;

events {
    worker_connections 1024;
}

ht tp {
    access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log;
    error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log;

    include       /etc/nginx/mime.types;
    default_type  application/octet-stream;

    # Hide Nginx version number
    server_tokens off;

    gzip on;
    keepalive_timeout 65;
    sendfile on;

    client_max_body_size 12m;
    types_hash_max_size 2048;

    include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
}

nginx.conf.rmpnew

# For more information on configuration, see:
#   * Official English Documentation: nginx.org/en/docs/
#   * Official Russian Documentation: nginx.org/ru/docs/

user nginx;
worker_processes auto;
error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log;
pid /run/nginx.pid;

events {
    worker_connections 1024;
}

ht tp {
    log_format  main  '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
                      '$status $body_bytes_sent "$ht tp_referer" '
                      '"$ht tp_user_agent" "$ht tp_x_forwarded_for"';

    access_log  /var/log/nginx/access.log  main;

    sendfile            on;
    tcp_nopush          on;
    tcp_nodelay         on;
    keepalive_timeout   65;
    types_hash_max_size 2048;

    include             /etc/nginx/mime.types;
    default_type        application/octet-stream;

    # Load modular configuration files from the /etc/nginx/conf.d directory.
    # See nginx.org/en/docs/ngx_core_module.html#include
    # for more information.
    include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;

    server {
        listen       80 default_server;
        listen       [::]:80 default_server;
        server_name  _;
        root         /usr/share/nginx/html;

        # Load configuration files for the default server block.
        include /etc/nginx/default.d/*.conf;

        location / {
        }

        error_page 404 /404.html;
            location = /40x.html {
        }

        error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
            location = /50x.html {
        }
    }
}

The two are very different. It is even worse with /etc/amavisd/amavisd.conf and /etc/amavisd/amavisd.conf.rpmnew.

How can I know what to do with all these differences?

Do I need to merge the two files? And if so, how?
Or can I only keep one and disregard altogether the differences in the other? And if so, which one do I keep (and consequently, in which one do I apply the changes the tutorial ask for) ?

Thank you

BTW, I had to split every occurrence of 'http' in my post because it said I tried to include to many links. It took me long to think that maybe it tried to parse everything that began with ht tp to make it a link even if I did not use the url bbcode tag. I think you should tweak the forum configs because it will happen to many people and very often.
