[PACKAGE UPDATER] Bug in fastrpc.cgi

Updating to libxen-4.1 version 4.1.3-3ubuntu1.3, libxenstore3.0 version 4.1.3-3ubuntu1.3, mountall version 2.42ubuntu0.4, xen-hypervisor-4.1-amd64 version 4.1.3-3ubuntu1.3, xen-utils-4.1 version 4.1.3-3ubuntu1.3, xen-utils-common version 4.1.3-3ubuntu1.3, xenstore-utils version 4.1.3-3ubuntu1.3 ........................................ .. update failed : Failed to read from fastrpc.cgi :

The above "failed to read from fastrpc.cgi" is something I have grown used to now. It's shown at the end of every (still-successful) package update process performed through Cloudmin.

Status: 
Closed (fixed)

Comments

This happens when updating packages on the Cloudmin host too. In other words, Cloudmin speaking directly to itself on the same machine.

More info that may help:

All my VMs have moved Webmin and Usermin from their standard ports, but the RPC port ranges are open in iptables.

Someone else reported this recently as well - the next Webmin release should fix it, or at least provide a more useful error message as to why the read fails. Annoyingly it doesn't happen on my test systems :-(
