HI, One of our installations has a Pro 100 license expired that I like to renew. How can I do this?

Howdy -- it's unfortunately not a fully automated process... but it's a simple one :-)

All you have to do is go into the "Buy" option above, and choose either the Virtualmin 100 monthly or yearly option.

Once you do that, just let us know here and we'll apply that order to your current license.

Let us know if you have any questions!

Hi, Thanks. Things have changed in the meanwhile. So, the renewal is no longer needed, sorry.

Actually we now need to downgrade to GPL version. Following the uninstall description (https://www.virtualmin.com/documentation/installation/uninstalling) still leaves the expire message in the system information. How can I properly downgrade?

You may want to ensure that you're actually running the GPL version now... you can do that with this command:

rpm -qa | grep virtual-server

It should contain "gpl" in the version number.

If so -- it might just be a cache issue, you could try restarting Webmin with this command:

service webmin restart

Hi ,

your request: # rpm -qa|grep virtual-server
wbm-virtual-server-4.18-1.noarch
wbt-virtual-server-theme-9.0-2.noarch
ust-virtual-server-theme-6.9-1.noarch
wbt-virtual-server-mobile-2.5-1.noarch
ust-virtual-server-mobile-2.1-1.noarch

however the virtualmin-release gives:
virtualmin-release.noarch 1.0-5.gpl.rhel @virtualmin

Ah, it looks like you still have Virtualmin Pro installed.

Is it possible you missed the first step in the "RPM-based systems" section?

There, it mentions downloading the latest Virtualmin RPM from the repository, and it shows how to install it using the "rpm" command on the command line. This step would perform the installation of the Virtualmin GPL package.
