Got an error already ..

package perl-Compress-Zlib-1.33-0.rhfc1.dag (which is newer than perl-Compress-Zlib-1.33-fc1.build75050128.10) is already installed


Bill

I had to remove dag package and install the sw-soft package then the updater ran fine afterward ..

17. It is now possible to disable Updater feature and remove the Updater button from the Server Administration page.

Nice, but after the installation, the button is gone away.
How can I get this button back?? Anyone any ideas?

[WebDork]

Anyone successfully upgraded through the admin updater?

[sandesh]

Where can you disable it?
I searched for it but cannot find that either.

Btw .. upgrade went fine for the first time after 4 releases!

Grtz!

[Mirco]

Table 'misc' - parameter 'disable_updater' - value 'true' or 'false

mysql -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow`
use psa;
UPDATE misc SET val='true' WHERE param='disable_updater';
exit

[Cranky]

Sorry, but why would someone want to disable it? I mean I don't use it, and wouldn't want it used on any of our managed servers, but if someone has Plesk admin access they also have Plesk 'psa' DB access so they can make changes anyway.

Something like editing a file in /etc/psa/ would be better surely?

[scooter]

So, if I enable 'updater' again will the control panel slow down, again?

[brandonp]

[-] Hard disk quotas is not reset during upgrade anymore.

This is a very big deal to me, upgrading should go much smoother and not require me to take the server down for 1 hour+. I would like to thank the Plesk staff for this improvement,

Nope, Horde 2.2.5.

[Griffith]

cranky: have you updated to 7.5.2? or are you waiting?

[RexAdmin]

We've upgraded to 7.5.2, no problems so far.

Good luck.

[dats]

Upgraded last night and instantly lost the updater icon and then had clients contacting me to let me know they are receiving quota errors after logging into the control panel.

This quota issue should have been fixed by now in a release

and

I want the updater ICON back !!!

Because I am also on Virtuozzo had to get the quota issue fixed by a tech at the data centre and he also had to reboot.

[smtalk]

Updater button:
mysql -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow`
use psa;
UPDATE misc SET val='false' WHERE param='disable_updater';
exit

[brandonp]

Only problem I have is waiting for quotacheck to finish on upgrades, which took over an hour.

But, it seemed worth the upgrade. The control panel appears to be significantly faster.

Good upgrade, but someday they need to find a way to not shutdown every server and perform the quotacheck. I takes everything down for over an hour.

I've upgraded 85% of our physical servers to 7.5.2 - and the 7.5.2-hotfix. Haven't begun upgrading VE's to new plesk template though yet.

[Cthulhu]

Thanks for the hints on getting the updater icon back, everybody... I was just about to bug sw-soft about it.

[Jamai]

Updated from 7.5.1 without a problem. I just wish to thank SW-Soft for (finally) updating the login-buggy (which made it took so long to log in) and for speeding up the complete interface, it reacts way faster now. Thanks!!!

Does anyone know what the hotfix-update was for?

Have updated two servers from 7.1.5 --> 7.5.2 + hotfix with no problems.. ;)

[PixyPumpkin]

I updated to 7.5.2 but now I cannot add hosting to a domain because of a quote bug in Plesk?

Unable to assign variables for PHostingForm: Unable to get hardquota state: usermng: Unable to add user: velpprint

0: /usr/local/psa/admin/htdocs/domains/hosting/phosting_setup.php:290 psaerror(string "Unable to assign variables for PHostingForm: Unable to get hardquota state: usermng: Unable to add user: xxxxxxxx")

I there a fix for this?

After starting this upgrade from 7.5.1 to 7.5.2, we are once again having mysql problems interfering with the upgrade where it only upgraded 1/2 of the items in the list. It seems the installer is unable to stop and start mysql so it just quits and errors out.

I don't know why it can't just work like with cpanel. Just click on upgrade and its supposed to do it or so I thought but I don't think thats worked in quite a while for us. Upgrades with plesk are such a pain that it's easier to avoid them, but I need the bugfix in spamassassin so it has to be done I guess.

Having the very same problem on the first server I tried to upgrade. I swear I wan't even going to touch any upgrades but the temptation to have those fixes was too much. I wonder why its unable to stop and start mysql!

[Traged1]

Anyone notice that 75% of the application vault's applications are missing including Mambo ect..After the 7.5.2 upgrade?

[matt.simpson]

Anyone know if there's going to be a 7.5.3? I'm waiting at Plesk 7.1 to upgrade, but I don't want to bother if they're just going to put out another patched release shortly.

Any insight?

~Matt

[JLChafardet]

I think they should put a hotfix for the domain user password issue, i have seen LOTS of people who had suffered that bug (including myself) instead of waiting for us to ask for support and they send us the DomainUserMng (or something like that) php file to overwrite the one on the box(es).

regards,

[Griffith]

I was told by Todd that they probably release 7.5.3 in mid April

[matt.simpson]

So would you recommend waiting for 7.5.3 or upgrade 7.1.6 to 7.5.2?

~Matt

[Griffith]

I upgraded from 7.1.6 --> 7.5.2 on two servers with no issues, but normally a new update will have fewer bugs, so if you need new features in 7.5.x fast you should upgrade, else you could wait a couple of weeks :)

I was told that by swsoft that plesk 7.5.3 will support horde 3.

[Griffith]

It will also support CentOS-3.3 :P

I recomend you to wait until mid april to see if it is true that 7.5.3 is released, if so, go for it, if no, then install 7.5.2

Regards,

[Cranky]

While 7.5.2's pretty good compared to previous x.x.2's it's still got a few bugs. I'd say it is stable, but you might as well wait for 7.5.3 now.
