Switch base distribution to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS Xenial Xerus

almereyda commented 8 years ago

The preflight issues a hard check for the used Ubuntu distribution.

With 16.04 arriving within a month and already having a beta.

Are there plans to start a new branch xx for Xenial Xerus to prepare for the upcoming migrations?

Häppy Hacking!

@jirislav Thank you for the info. Unfortunately when attempting to upgrade 'git checkout v0.24-ubuntu16' after running 'setup/start.sh' it ends as described by @bavicj with the last line -

Installing solr version 6.6.0`

Setup appears not to complete.

@madera17 Oh, I'm sorry for that inconvenience with the Solr :(

I plan to move the NextAnt + Solr upgrades to a separate module, which you will have the possibility to choose whether you want to install it or not, so that the main installation routine setup/start.sh stays focused on preparing clean mailserver solution.

@jirislav would you be able to replicate these changes on a 18.04 installation a few months from now? If so, wouldn't this be a good point to have MIAB switch to 18.04 as @JoshData suggested almost 2 years ago?

jirislav commented 6 years ago

@Memphizzz I actually think it is already compatible with 18.04 :) .. I just have to try it out & fix problems that appear

Memphizzz commented 6 years ago

@jirislav Sounds good but keep in mind, 18.04 ain't released yet. The feature freeze didn't happen yet, so stuff might still change until the first of March.

About install with Ubuntu 16 LTS 64-bit, some news? Can I use in it? ... Another option is to use a minimal hardware (ex. DigitalOcean droplet of 512Mb RAM 20 Gb HD and 1vCPU) with Ubuntu 14... There are some "minimal configuration" tips here? (no at README or site).

Really???

Mail-in-a-Box only supports being installed on Ubuntu 14.04, sorry. You are running:

Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

We can't write scripts that run on every possible setup, sorry.

jirislav commented 6 years ago

@ilyaevseev really what?

cybercode commented 6 years ago

According to the ubuntu CVE on the meltdown exploit, 14.x won't be updated because it is EOL. It is of course possible there will be a backport, but... Any plans to address this issue?

yodax commented 6 years ago

Do you have a link to that statement?

This shows it at pending. This doesn't mention 14.04 as not supported. 14.04 isn't EOL as far as I know.

Sorry, think i mis-read this page: https://people.canonical.com/%7Eubuntu-security/cve/2017/CVE-2017-5754.html, see the second entry below...
