MagnusBilling 7 entered maintenance mode on July 18, 2026.

  • Regular maintenance ends on January 1, 2027.

  • New development is exclusive to MagnusBilling 8.

MagnusBilling 7 uses Asterisk 13 and chan_sip. MagnusBilling 8 uses Asterisk 20 and PJSIP. Migration is performed on a new Debian server and is not an in-place upgrade.

CentOS Linux 7 is end-of-life and is not supported. Preserve the old server for rollback, install MagnusBilling 8 on a new Debian server, restore a full database dump, and run the MagnusBilling 8 database migrator.

Installations using app_mbilling must rebuild and reinstall the module for Asterisk 20.
