I've waited for our system to notify me about the new upgrade to VM since it came out recently. Nothing.

I've checked the Virtualmin Package Updates and everything, I mean everything (VM related and all packages), says it's up to date. That seems weird to me. Upgrades were at least working up to 3.71 since that is the version I am using.

I don't know what to check. Help?

Thanks,

Chris

Are you referring to the 3.73 version? If so, I don't think Joe has pushed that out to repositories yet ..

Actually, no, I was referring to 3.72. I did think it strange though when checking for all updates, i.e. VM related and non-related updates, everything says it is currently up to date though it is set to check on a daily basis and I know a lot of stuff that is not related to VM I have not updated.

If you run the following commands to upgrade from the command line ,what output do you get :

apt-get update
apt-get install webmin-virtual-server

This is the error when initiating the apt-update command:

Howdy -- try running this command:

apt-get clean

followed by re-running the apt-get update -- does it work at that point?

Same thing:

Reading package lists... Error!
E: Dynamic MMap ran out of room
E: Error occurred while processing tmpreaper (NewVersion1)
E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/mirrors.kernel.org_debian_dists_etch_main_binary-i386_Packages
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.

Well, I've done some digging around and this appears to be a known bug in Debian with the apt package (see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=431410 and http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-closed@lists.debian.org/msg23718...).

Apparently the bug is fixed in version apt/0.7.22; I have version 0.6.46.4-0.1installed.

Would upgrading this outside of Virtualmin break anything?

Thanks,

Chris
