ISPConfig 2.2.24 released

[till]

ISPConfig 2.2.24 is available for download.

This ISPConfig release adds support for CentOS 5.2 and OpenSuSE 11.0. A new interface for cronjobs and support for mod_python has been added. Several minor bugs were fixed.

- Changed: Enable XML in ispconfig PHP if libxml2-dev is installed.

In addition, it has been shown that servers supporting the TRACE method are subject to cross-site scripting attacks, dubbed XST for "Cross-Site Tracing", when used in conjunction with various weaknesses in browsers. An attacker may use this flaw to trick your legitimate web users to give him their credentials.

upgrading now, thanks. ill post results :)

[Hans]

Thanks Till for the work. I will install it soon. :)
One question, why did you not update ClamAV to the latest version 0.93.3 ?

[till]

One question, why did you not update ClamAV to the latest version 0.93.3 ?

Oops, did not recognize that they released a new version. I will try to make a update the next days.

[tal56]

Thanks so much Till !! Been waiting for this to upgrade along with upgrading from Centos 5 to 5.2.

Is there a recommended process for that? Should I upgrade ISPconfig first or update Centos first? I also notice some users on the Centos forums suggest a reboot before and/or after updating Centos, you think this is required?

Thanks again Till and Falko.

Ok Till,

Then i will wait until that moment. Thanks in advance!

I have no experience with upgrading Centos, but I would update centos first and then update ISPConfig, so that ISPConfig will use the updated libraries when it compiles the binaries during update process.

[amoniak]

THX for the Update! installing now!

big UP for the optional user quota! :)

[wpwood3]

Thanks for the update.

Where is it explained how to use the new CRON feature?

There is a new tab for the cronjobs in the forms of the users.

[madmucho]

Update to 2.2.24 ok on mandriva 2007.1

but Tools > Whois > info about domain .biz, select dont hold value when submit button is clicked and i dont get info about my domain. Is hosted on ispconfig, any idea where can i get log about whois action?

[till]

There is no log about this. You might have to debug the whois php script directly.

[Hans]

I just successfully updated one Debian Etch server from ISPConfig 2.2.22 to 2.2.24. Later this week i will update my other server as well.

Thanks for the work! :)

[pg001]

There is a new tab for the cronjobs in the forms of the users.
does that mean there is a new interface now where we can implement cron jobs via ISPConfig? If so, where do we find it?

All I see right now is a check box which says cron job.

[till]

Yes, there is a new interface and you quoted the description were you can find it :)

[bolero]

I also notice some users on the Centos forums suggest a reboot before and/or after updating Centos, you think this is required?
1. You *have* to reboot *each* time a kernel is updated.
2. You *should* update regularly, not just from one major version to next major version. If you wait that long with updating you are asking for trouble. (Because of security holes that you don't fix and because an update from one major version to another may have a few more glitches than going with all the minor updates in-between.)

[bolero]

I updated from 2.2.23 on CentOS 5.2. Just fine. I noticed that you don't reinvoke the certificate creation process and thus the certificate doesn't get replaced. Thank you. What gets replaced, though, are all the changes that I made with the form editor. This is all reset to the install default, which is a pity. Is there a way to backup these data and reapply after the update? I figure this might not be easy as there could be new forms/fields/values and if I reapply the backup the new functionality would get wiped from the interface. Anyway, if you have some idea how to achieve this I would be grateful for sharing. And, should I add this as a feature request either in this forum or on the bugtracker?

I've just install the update and it work fine for me ^^. Just question, when I enable the cron option for an user, how the user can add cronjob ? Because I didn't find option in user interface. Thanks for your answers :)

Post #10 in this thread.

Please make sure that you have the whois package installed on your server.

[pg001]

this is for those other newbies like me who could not find the crontab for the users in the ISPConfig (it took me a while searching for it):
1. Goto ISPManager=>Sites Folder=>Click a User website.

2. On the Basis Tab below it you will see a "Cron Jobs:" check box, check that.
3. Then go to "User and Email" tab.
4. Then click a user, for me it's web1_user.
5. Check "Cron Jobs:" checkbox and save, then go back to that section again there you will see a new Cron Jobs tab.

... just trying to help :D

[Gimly]

Thank you pg001 and till ^^

[madmucho]

Please make sure that you have the whois package installed on your server.

Bingo, whois isnt installed :-)
urpmi whois and is done :-)
Thank you

[Hans]

I also updated my second Debian Etch server with ISPConfig 2.2.24.
Everything went fine! Thanks again for the nice work. I am happy with the new cronjob function.

ISPConfig 2.2.24 comes with ClamAV 0.93.1.
Will there be an additional patch file to update to ClamAV 0.93.3 or does this ClamAV version come with the next ISPConfig release?

[linuxuser1]

I was able to update to 2.2.24 successfully but when I tried to update to phpMyAdmin-2.11.7 using the ISPConfig, I keep getting an error to enter username and password and when I do that and go back to install the phpMyAdmin-2.11.7 again its takes me back to logon pape again.

Any idea?

Thanks.

[createch]

Thanks till and all contributed!
The cron option is definitely a very good feature to be added.

[pakogah]

some how after I manage to restore my /root/ispconfig by upgrading into ver 2.2.24 I got weird experience with BIND's zone directory

when I look at /root/ispconfig/conf/named.conf.master, it still point to
options {
pid-file "/var/named/chroot/var/run/named/named.pid";
directory "{BINDDIR}";
auth-nxdomain no;
// query-source address * port 53;
};

but when I look at /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf, it pointed to /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/web/multidoc/edit
options {
pid-file "/var/named/chroot/var/run/named/named.pid";
directory "/home/admispconfig/ispconfig/web/multidoc/edit";
auth-nxdomain no;
// query-source address * port 53;
};

so ispconfig make a new record/zone placed on that folder, :confused:

I dont know is it a bug on ver 2.2.24 or this problem caused by I deleting /root/ispconfig before upgrading to ver 2.2.24 ?? :confused:

need help on this...

[till]

Thats not a bug in ispconfig, the bind config directory has wrong permissions. You either changed them or you installed a bind upadte which changed them. Reconfigure bind as described in the perfect setup guide and then set the bind config directory in ispconfig under management > server > settings again.

[pakogah]

ok now I know what caused it,
on Management >> Server >> Settings >> DNS >> Zonefiles Dir.:
contain /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/web/multidoc/edit

but everytime I want to change it into /var/named/chroot/var/named the field it also back to /etc/bind no matter what

until I change the appropriate column on db_ispconfig into /var/named/chroot/var/named

but if I go back into Management >> Server >> Settings >> DNS and just hit OK without changing anything, it always came back to /etc/bind

fiuh... :confused::confused: any hint to fixed this ??

[till]

ok now I know what caused it,
on Management >> Server >> Settings >> DNS >> Zonefiles Dir.:

No, it is not caused by this. The cause are wrong bind directory permissions. That the directory changes is the symptom of the poblem, not the cause. Please do exactly what I told you above to solve the problem.

[pakogah]

got that Till, I love you muachh... ;)
the permission seems reset by CentOS upgrade..
now it works properly...

btw when version change from 2.2.23 into 2.2.23 did you change file /root/ispconfig/scripts/lib/classes/ispconfig_bind.lib.php ??

because tollan's hack for private/public DNS (to use ISPConfig using NAT IP/behind firewall) no longer works :(

it's works properly now

From the update of version 2.2.24, the page login of the admin panel and all of the users login, always they appear in language English, before they view in the language selected in the admin panel configuration :confused:

Any idea ?

[radim_h]

Hello,

i just have updated to 2.2.24
You have probably not noticed , that users limit in MB (WebSpace MB: ) can be again set to "-1", even if "Space MB:" limit is set for whole page, which has been chaged previously in 2.2.21 (i think)


Have also question, i'm using czech translation (but it appears also in english translation), ther is missing translation for "Traffic-uberschreitung" field in pages properties (showing german in all translations), where i can fix it ?

This is described in the release notes.

Add the translation for the german word to the language file of the isp manager module. I added this to the bugtracker too.

[radim_h]

Which file is the translation module, please? cannot find it...

On the moment, i use this latest ISPConfig version 2.2.24 on Debian Etch.
After adding new site, the site doesn't appear in the structure tree.
The site has been created by ISPConfig indeed, because it can be found with the Tools > Search feature.
After finding it this way, and saving the site once again, finally it appears in the structure tree.
I've noticed this behaviour with every new site i've added.

Is this a bug?

Thanks in advance for your reply!

[Snowman]

Hi there,
i have already added some sites and it appers in tree. May you tree is not properly refreshed or may you somehow missed "Folder:" dropdown at site settings(first page).:)

[bernholdt]

Just updated my Debian Etch without any problems tnx alot :)
Did u get the latest Clamav included in the update ??

Did you click on the Save button when you created the site, or did you just change the tabs?

[Hans]

@Falko,
I am almost sure that i've pressed save evrytime i added a site.
I will watch this behaviour closely the next couple of times to see what will happen.

Other question :
After i add new domain and i use awstats by jnsc it generate the statistics well, but in this new domain now appear all pages in English language. The rest of domains before update to latest version of ispconfig (2.2.24) generate well the Pages of awstats in the language assigned (spanish)

Please anybody suggestion :confused:

Thanks.

One problem I experience is that the tree does not display or takes minutes in FF3.
I guess it's that FF3 will just display the tree when all elements are loaded.
Anywhere here in this forum the problem of FF (also FF2) never stops loading also everything seems to be displayed fine.

Does anyone else have this problem?

[till]

I did not recognize that yet. About how many nodes (clients, sites and folders do you have approx. in the tree menu?

I have here a server with about 500 nodes in the tree and it takes about one second to load with FF3 on my relatively old laptop.

[Hans]

Does anyone else have this problem?

I have noticed the same from time to time with my Opera 9.51 browser.
Since i switched to https, i have that problem more often then before.

[till]

Ok, we will have to find a solution for this or use another tree menu for future releases. It would be great if someone who experiences this problem can try to have a look at it as I was not able to reproduce it on my systems yet. The file that includes the javascript and php code for the tree menu in the isp-manager module is:

/home/admispconfig/ispconfig/web/isp_manager/inhalt_tree.php

I never used it without https. But what I also found out, if using the web's apache as ssl proxy on 443 to access the ispconfig admin server, everything works fast and fine.

But when I am back home I will check if I can find out why it's taking endless time...

Did you click on the Save button when you created the site, or did you just change the tabs?

In the Mean time i know that i switched the tab and i did not click the save button. When i press the save button everything works fine. :)

Seemless upgrade! Thanks guys!

[PermaNoob]

Tried to use the update from within the controlpanel but I guess that's not working, or at least it timed out in my browser.

No problem updating from the command line on debian etch.

It appeared to spend a long time making a backup first--just wondering what was backed up and where it was stored?

You can not install ISPConfig updates there. This update function is for addon packages only.

The backup is stored in /tmp

To make the backup smaller, delete everything in the directory /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/temp/ except of the subdirectories webmail and squirrelmail (in case they exist).

2.2.25 is the latest version, so you should use that one instead.
