Updating wbm-virtual-server fails!

Howdy -- it sounds like this could be due to an (easily solvable) RPM problem with the CentOS RPM package.

Just to verify that there aren't any third party repos though before we correct that -- what is the output of these two commands:

This seems to be an obscure change in RPM. Packages built on newer systems won't install on older ones, maybe. My new build pipeline has the RPMs being built on a Fedora or CentOS 7 system. I explicitly force it to use what I thought were the necessary compatibility options (MD5 vs SHA file hashes), but I guess there's one more thing.

I'll roll a new version of the package shortly. Should be out within a few hours (I need to do some reading to understand what's happening here...I'm kinda guessing, still).

I think it's because you're compressing the RPM contents in ways not supported on older Redhat releases --- see discussion at https://github.com/jordansissel/fpm/issues/192 for some ideas.

Any resolution on this error. I am having the same problem.

Hello ,

Same problem for my server on Centos 5.11 . Not particularly in a hurry for this update to be resolved , I just want to know if future updates will be impacted .

Thank you .

Regards . Jeff .

Thanks -- I'll talk to Joe about how the fix for this is coming along.

If you end up needing a feature or bugfix from a newer version in the meantime, let me know and I'll see if there's a way to get that to you while Joe is correcting the RPM problem.

I have updated webmin to version 1.750 and updated wbm-virtual-server to 4.17-2 with success .

Thanks .

Jeff .

Glad to hear that worked!

Joe was able to correct that issue late last night. I was just coming to let you guys know that it was corrected, but it looks like you already figured that out :-)

I am having the exact same issue as Jeff.

Secondly, I am not able to submit support ticket's from within the system.
Sending support ticket to virtualmin.com ..
.. failed with HTTP error : HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found

Thanks in advance.

Apologies for the inconvenience, guys. I'm working on yet another new build system, and I didn't include all of the right incantations to build for old systems. I've rebuilt it for CentOS 5, and 5.0-2 should be in the repo now.

Please let me know if the problem persists (I think I got all the right bits turned on, but I thought I'd done it right before...so I may be doing something wrong). I don't have a CentOS 5 system handy to test on at the moment.

Also, on the issue with submitting tickets via the Support module in Virtualmin. This is a known issue, and I expect to have it resolved in the next day or so. The new ticket tracker uses the database in very different ways, so the submission program needs to be rewritten to talk to the ticket tracker via its API rather than writing directly to the database.

Hello ,

Thank you Joe .
It is working well now , all package updated with success .

I have switched the theme to Authentic Theme just after the update and now I can not change to another . But it is not the subject's ticket , so I will try to manage that , if not I will raise a new ticket .

Also , when checking virtualmin configuration , it says 'your system is not ready for use by Virtualmin.' because of this two reasons not very important I think :

-The mailman queue processor /usr/lib/mailman/bin/qrunner is not running on your system. It can be started in the Bootup and Shutdown module.
-Your Postfix version does not support per-domain outgoing IP addresses.

Thank you once again and keep up the great work you do .

Regards .

Jeff .

It works with the new package :)

magnifico, it sounds like the Mailman process isn't running on your server. You should be able to correct that error by restarting Mailman.

If that doesn't help, open up a new support request and we can assist you with that there. Thanks!
