Virtualmin downgrade process from pro to gpl not working

I am moving my license to a new server so want to downgrade existing server to gpl version. I followed the instructions on https://virtualmin.com/documentation/installation/uninstalling which all seemed to go fine, however I still have the pro version running after restarting webmin. rpm -qa | grep wbm-virtual-server wbm-virtual-server-5.03-1.noarch

should be rpm -qa | grep wbm-virtual-server wbm-virtual-server-5.03.gpl-1.noarch

repo is; cat /etc/yum.repos.d/virtualmin.repo [virtualmin] name=RHEL/CentOS/Scientific $releasever - $basearch - Virtualmin baseurl=http://SERIALNUMBER:LICENSEKEY@software.virtualmin.com/gpl/rhel/$releasever/$basearch/ enabled=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-virtualmin gpgcheck=1

[virtualmin-universal] name=Virtualmin Distribution Neutral Packages baseurl=http://SERIALNUMBER:LICENSEKEY@software.virtualmin.com/gpl/universal/ enabled=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-virtualmin gpgcheck=1

please confirm what else I need to do?

Howdy -- hmm, it looks like you still have the Virtualmin Pro package installed there.

It looks like your repository is correct though.

In the article that you linked, in the first section where it says "RPM-based systems", did you do the steps where it mentions downloading the Virtualmin GPL package from the repository, and then running a command such as "rpm -Uvh --oldpackage wbm-virtual-server-4.17.gpl.noarch.rpm"?

That should install the Virtualmin GPL package. If you had done that, you may want to do it again, and then let us know what output you receive when trying it.

I ran the following command;

rpm -Uvh --oldpackage http://software.virtualmin.com/gpl/centos/6/x86_64/virtualmin-release-la... Retrieving http://software.virtualmin.com/gpl/centos/6/x86_64/virtualmin-release-la... Preparing... ########################################### [100%]

1:virtualmin-release ########################################### [100%]

Still same status...pro still active version...

Yeah there's two commands mentioned in that section that you need to run.

The one you're showing there is the second of the two, and is responsible for updating the repository.

You also need to run the command mentioned above that one (also following the instructions to download the package first).

man.... I ran through the process 5 times and didn't pick that up, looks like an if this or that... just ran the first command and all is sorted!

I have added a comment to the instructions as it was ambiguous to me..,

Thank you, all sorted now!

Great, I'm glad to hear that's working now!
