Ubuntu 8 LTS Server ISPCONFIG

[t.roijers]

Today i upgraded Ubuntu Server 6 LTS to Ubuntu Server 8 LTS. The network upgrade worked perfect! Afterward i reinstalled ISPConfig because it's wasn't functioning properly. When reinstalling ISPConfig it stopped after a while with the announcement ISPConfig will not work with the installed version.

To bad, have to wait for an ISPConfig release that works with the new Ubuntu LTS 8 server.

Just wanted to warn the rest before you have to restore from backup

Greetinx,

Which ISPConfig version did you use? As far as I know, Falko installed the current ISPConfig stable version on Ubuntu 8.04 (see rhe tutorial on the howtoforge frontpage).

Could this have to do with the change of the default shell, maybe…?

/bin/sh is now dash

• To improve overall system performance, the /bin/sh shell in Ubuntu 6.10 and later is dash, rather than bash as it was in Ubuntu 6.06 LTS. This may cause compatibility problems for local shell scripts. Please see DashAsBinSh for more information.

This stopped me from jumping right into it in the first place — plus I do not like the idea of upgrading a running server the day after any new release. So, this will all better be testet on a VM-Install beforehand.

Set up your server as shown here: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-ubuntu8.04-lts
and you won't have any issues.

The more convenient way for an existing sys is of course using the new "update-manager-core" package. Have you maybe tested this Falko?

No, not for 8.04.
I think that AppArmor could cause problems. It's enabled by default, and in my tutorial, I disable it.

I used to have Ubuntu Server 6.06 Dapper LTS and Upgraded Ubuntu Server 8.04 LTS server edition.

The upgrade of Ubuntu works just fine, but ISPConfig come with a lot of errors when rebooting.
