Dear Till,

I want you to know that i have installed ISPConfig 2.2.17 stable on my productionservers Debian Etch, 32 & 64 bit.

Thanks for doing this nice job!

[the_spy]

Upgraded on Debian Etch, thanks

[erebus]

Upgraded smoothly on CentOS 4.5.

Thank you!

[spuppy]

Is there supposed to be a message anywhere telling us that ths is an upgrade, and not a full install? So far I am seeing a hell of a lot of compiling, but no indication of whether it's just an upgrade...

EDIT: Upgrade just completed on its own. Good thing! Thanks :)

[Ben]

afair the upate / install message appears in the next lines directly after checkgin the server's OS version...

just at the start of the setup

[rachel]

Upgraded smoothly on Gentoo 2007.0 test system; patch script in my howto applied correctly without changes. Now modifying the howto to make this the default version it knows about...

[rachel]

Also upgraded smoothly on live Ubuntu Server Feisty.

[omni]

As always, update went smooth on my 32bit i686 Ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS machine.

Thank you.

[Martin1982]

I upgraded from an early version (2.2.13) and to my surprise I didn't even have to fill out the certificate stuff anymore. Everything is running as smooth as before.
I'm using ISPConfig for over a year now and I still think it's the finest alternative to all those expensive hosting panels out there!

[madmucho]

Upgrade on mandriva 2007.1 32bit and 2007.1 64bit, no problem everything work fine....with some changes related in this thread. http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15739

I'm at the moment about 12.000 KM from my servers (Debian Etch), and just did the updates with no problem.

This must be a long distance record for updating an ISPconfig server :-)

[Hans]

I think your server has a very long UTP-cable isn't it :D

[punto]

Thank you for the new release, upgraded two live servers without a problem :)

[daveb]

Upgrade went smooth as usual. Thanks as always.

I do have a question and been looking for answer for a few days using the site search cause I have seen it before but no luck so. what is the space requirement for the compilation of ispconfig?

[z400]

On my Debian 3.1 the install (like the four updates before) works
perfect. No Errormessages or something like that.

I say thank you (!) for your very very great job!:)

[edge]

Yes it does :-) I was going to do it from the plain at +30.000 feet, but my laptop's battery was empty :/

When attempting to upgrade on SuSE 10.2 from 2.2.13 I get the following:

ERROR: MySQL is not running! Please start your MySQL database and run the ISPConfig setup again.

I have verified that mysql is up and running fine.

[samuch]

For some reason running the script once more worked. Please disregard previous post.

You should have at least 250MB of free space, probably a bit more.

[memphis]

Great work!
The update procede perfectly on my Debian Etch server.

Thanks

[lyndros]

Installation went smooth in my 32 BIT 6.06 Ubuntu Server :)

Thks to all the team :)

[Ben]

Also here the update went fine and without problems. thx

[iurips]

I have problems to install ispconfi 2.2.17 in Debian Etch (AMD 64Bits).
First lines of errors:
/tmp/cc2z1uga.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/cc2z1uga.s:431: Error: Incorrect register `%rax' used with `l' suffix
/tmp/cc2z1uga.s:439: Error: Incorrect register `%rbx' used with `l' suffix

/tmp/cc2z1uga.s:460: Error: Incorrect register `%rbx' used with `l' suffix

Any idea ??

[melwood]

Update isn't working. I see the following message and nothing more happens:

Dateien werden vorbereitet. Bitte warten Sie einen Moment...

Any idea?

melwood

Make sure that you have enough free space on your harddisk, especially about 250 MB in /root. Then delete all files and folders in /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/temp/ except of the webmail folder.

Before you try to start the update again, run the command:

mkdir /eoot/ispconfig

to make sure that the installer starts in update mode.

[melwood]

mkdir /eoot/ispconfig


Thanks, it worked. Can I delete /eoot/ispconfig after the update? What is it used for?

No.

What is it used for?

This directory contains the server part of ISPConfig.

[melwood]

No.



This directory contains the server part of ISPConfig.

Okay, I suppose you meant : "/root/ispconfig"

Yes, that's right.

I have two problems:

1) I have upgraded ISPConfig from 2.2.9 to 2.2.17 in my debain 3.1 (sarge) without any hitches and this time it is so smooth that I needn't redo the things like the certificate and so on. The evolution of ISPConfig is awesome!

But after the upgrade, I could not access to ISPConfig control panel nor to the base domain using a browser. But all other sites were working without any hitches ;-)

2) I want to upgrade the MySQL from 4.0.9 to 4.1.x in the same machine, but I was just wondering that works fine in debian sarge 3.1? I am worried whether such manual upgrade is likely to conflict with ISPconfig?

Thanks!

[falko]

This *should* work without problems (as long as you use the official Debian packages), but you never know. You should do a backup before you try the upgrade.

[zenny]

Thank you for information, Falko. But in this post:
http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=10004

You advised to use the dotdeb pacakges for sarge. Yes? or the scenario changed since the post of your reply (23 Jan 2007)?

Thanks in advance!

Addendum:

Following your suggestion, I tried to install mysql-server-4.1 using apt-get in Debian sarge, but I am wondering it tried to install a world of packages (including mysql-server-5.0). Is it normal? See the output below:

# apt-get install mysql-server-4.1

When I checked the package list, even after I upgraded ISPConfig 2.2.17, there are still php4 packages. I am just wondering whether I need both php4 and php5? I do not see any rationale. In case I remove php4 using apt-get remove, will it affect ISPConfig? Please see the pacakge list:

ii mysql-client 4.0.24-10sarge mysql database client binaries
ii mysql-common 5.0.32-7etch1 mysql database common files (e.g. /etc/mysql
ii mysql-server 4.0.24-10sarge mysql database server binaries
ii php4 4.3.10-16 server-side, HTML-embedded scripting languag
ii php4-cli 4.3.10-16 command-line interpreter for the php4 script

ii php4-curl 4.3.10-16 CURL module for php4

ii php4-pear 4.3.10-16 PEAR - PHP Extension and Application Reposit
ii php4-xslt 4.3.10-16 XSLT module for php4

Since it is a production server, I cannot just mess with it without having the ISPconfig expert developers' opinion!

[falko]

Do you use Debian Sarge or Etch? If it's Sarge, you can use the dotdeb packages because MySQL 5 is not available for Sarge (unless things have changed in the meantime).

Do you currently use PHP4? Then I'd install/update PHP4 only, not PHP5.
