Howdy all,
We've rolled out version 6.08 of Virtualmin virtual-server module. This release includes some security fixes (domain owners can obtain access they shouldn't have), so upgrading ASAP is recommended.
Changes since 6.07:
The Dropbox fix also needs a Webmin update to 1.932 (also rolled out today). The updated MariaDB 10.x support means we can finally support Debian 10 and CentOS 8. Debian 10 support should be announced in a day or two (we're testing and it looks good so far), and CentOS 8 soon after.
As always, report bugs!
Cheers,
Joe

Is this solved to?
Or upcoming update in time?
letsencrypt moved to API v2 in the meanwhile, deprecating API v1. Therefore i will receive this error:
Error registering: Account creation on ACMEv1 is disabled. Please upgrade your ACME client to a version that supports ACMEv2 / RFC 8555. See https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/end-of-life-plan-for-acmev1/88430 for details.
Those issues are not part of this release -- we hope to have that sorted soon, though the workaround until then is to install certbot, which Virtualmin can use to generate new Let's Encrypt SSL certificates.

OK maybe you take a look at this solution to. for clone or working together if that is a good one.

It's probably the easiest & smartest shell script to automatically issue & renew the free certificates from Let's Encrypt.
they writeFirst time I've gotten that error in virtualmin I think, it said the package couldn't be authenticated, and thus wouldn't be installed.
I had to do it in a terminal, apt-get upgrade.

Maybe because I've tested it on a debian Wheezy that's not maintained anymore, no idea.
Still, I report it in case it mattered.
The repo metadata should be signed, though apt repos are still occasionally mysterious to me. Try
apt-get clean; apt-get update
and see if the problem persists.Edit: Also, get onto a supported version of your OS! You're in danger!

It's not a constantly running production server, no worries about that. A terminal apt-get --upgrade command allowed to give manually the required [Y] confirmations, so it's also allright. I was simply reporting something that might have been an issue, in case it was particular to the 6.08 version and could mean trouble, that's just it :)
Hello
Where can we find the new installer for testing on Debian 10 ? :)
I currently have Virtualmin "6.08 Pro" installed and I am getting update notifications for version "6.08.gpl", am I supposed to be getting that update?
No, you should not be receiving notices for the GPL version if you're using Pro. You may want to open a support incident so we can look deeper into that... it may mean your repo is pointed at the GPL version rather than Pro version for some reason.

Take care of this to! https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/acme-v2-scheduled-deprecation-of-una...
We have added support for the POST-as-GET construction for certificates, orders, authorizations and challenges to the ACME v2 API while simultaneously allowing legacy GET requests to these resources. Clients may begin sending POST-as-GET requests to the staging and production V2 API as of October 25th, 2018.
On November 1st, 2019 we will remove support for unauthenticated GETs from the staging V2 API, requiring client support for POST-as-GET.
On November 1st, 2020 (one year later) we will remove support for unauthenticated GETs from the production V2 API.
Hi @joe
Where can we find the new installer for testing on Debian 10 ? :)
My Systmem is with following : Operating system Debian Linux 11.0 Webmin version 1.930 Kernel and CPU Linux 5.3.0-1-amd64 on x86_64 Processor information Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU M 450 @ 2.40GHz, 4 cores
Thanks

Debian 10 support should be announced in a day or two :)
Waiting for Virtualmin for Debian 10 buster .. please let me know where can I download new install.sh for testing.

Hello,
One month and a half after the release of 6.08, may I politely ask if you know if you have a window of visibility for when we may hope to see a Debian 10 compatible virtualmin release?
I'm certain you and your colleagues have your valid reasons for delaying the announcement and release of a version of Virtualmin that would officially work with Debian 10, I am not questioning this, no doubt there's work going on behind the scene, or maybe you are waiting for a third party to deliver/update/code something. But, well, simply, I am curious, I hope that doesn't come as unwanted pressure to ask for an estimation, if an estimation can be done :)
@joe more than a month since this post about debian 10... any news on this ?
I feel that forum support has changed in the last six months compared to previous years. No status updates ...Does Virtualmin have any problem? Or does it only have to do with Debian 10?
You can read this https://www.virtualmin.com/comment/820280#comment-820280
The forum readers should have noticed lot of BUGS/Changes needed with newer versions of some "software"
And ofcourse few Developers.
And Busy with new forum software to.
So alltogether one could / should understand the time needed is...
Thats fine... thats what happends.... but when joe for more than a month ago posted that it would be released in 1 or 2 days, then just radiosilence it is bad... If a new post/reply was made, that there is problems being worked on and therefor things take longer time, we can wait, just hard, when there is no information. Is there an estimate when it will be ready or is there still to much work to give this estimate ?
The best TIP i can give: ;)
WAIT AND SEE.
( typing here in forum cost time, especially if it is not clear enough release time ...makes it ... you give the example yourself.. ;)
I gave up waiting.
This may not be a popular suggestion, but I switched to Sympl (https://sympl.host) which actually suits me far better.

I'll stick with virtualmin ^^
But it's true, this extended wait delay is half annoying, half worrying.
Worrying: come on, can that be normal, might there be inside trouble and might the future of virtualmin be threatened?!? It also raises the possibility of a "truck factor" issue (you know the metaphor? Imagine a truck hitting a developer, does it, or not, mean a project dies with the truck's victim?). If the team behind a project is too small, personal issues making life difficult for a team member may jeopardize the entire thing, and now, with those 6 months with hardly any communication, I'd wager many of us have started to ask ourselves if it's not something of that sort.
Annoying: it's not like we're with a LTS version, Debian doesn't have that long a lifetime before a version goes obsolete, and we're now already 6 months past the release of Debian 10. The future Debian 10 servers risk to be, comparatively speaking, quite short-lived, it will be a bother.
And yet, a simple, brief thing would magically sort the issue: COMMUNICATION. A simple announcement to tell what's going on and clear doubts. "We're working on fine details that got a lot more complicated than planned. No worries, it will come. No ETA, or an ETA." "The team's gone postal because of unrelated issues, apologies but at least you know". Or "A key team member goes through a very hard time in life, we are sure you will understand resolving his problems come first" - and we'll totally understand, if - IF - we are told.
This is so true ... all of it.
As EcchiOli said, I would very much prefer to stick with VirtualMin. I have spent the past few days extensively researching a few other major options like ISPConfig, Sentora, VestaCP - and all of them are lacking, they don't have important features like iptables management, built-in 2-factor authentication, support for PostgreSQL server management, etc, etc (all features that I use and don't want to have to do via command line or add a bunch of unsupported hacks to build them in).
Communication is definitely a huge issue here ... not sure what is going on, what has happened with Joe or whoever else. I don't know how large the VirtualMin team is or who actually works on it? But if we take a look at the VirtualMin GitHub Repo: https://github.com/virtualmin/virtualmin-gpl/commits/master
List of commits shows "jcameron" (seems to be the guy that also builds WebMin) - so it does not appear that anyone has been hit by any trucks fortunately.
With all that said, I'm making an attempt to hack the current/latest install script to UNOFFICIALLY support Debian 10, based on the assumption that the "test" code they've been using for Buster is already built into their Universal repo - you can follow this here: https://www.virtualmin.com/comment/820559#comment-820559
A testing version is out!
