Upgrade from Zentyal 6.2 to 7.0 is now available
« on: March 08, 2021, 04:40:57 pm »
Hi all,

The upgrade path from Zentyal Server Development 6.2 to 7.0 has been published now. When you upgrade the 'zentyal-core' package to its latest version, "Upgrade button" will appear on the Dashboard.

We would recommend you to follow this checklist to avoid issues:

* Make sure you don't have pending updates
* Back up your server and data before upgrading
* Make sure that there are no errors in the /var/log/zentyal/zentyal.log file
* Make sure that there is space available on the disk
* Make sure that the server is updated
* Make sure that there are no broken packages
* Make sure that there are no errors in the internal Samba database or in the MySQL databases
* Make sure that you have Internet connectivity
* Click on the Upgrade button on the Dashboard
* Make sure that the packages have been updated

The official documentation for Zentyal Server 7.0 will include more detailed instructions (it will be published shortly).

Looking forward to receiving your feedback and comments.

Hi All!

I run the upgrade from 6.2.2 to 7.0 and currently the webadmin is not started with a follwing error message:
nginx: [emerg] SSL_CTX_use_certificate("/var/lib/zentyal/conf/ssl/ssl.pem") failed (SSL: error:140AB18F:SSL routines:SSL_CTX_use_certificate:ee key too small)

How can i solve this issue?

Can somebody help?

Hi Gabor,

Please note that you should upgrade from Zentyal 6.2.7. This issue is handled by the release-upgrade script in this line https://github.com/zentyal/zentyal/blob/support/6.2/main/core/src/scripts/release-upgrade#L248, so... the issue probably occurred in a previous upgrade stage, anyway, you have to update every package of your system before launching the script, otherwise the script won't continue (this is handled by the "checkPendingPackages" in L:69). How did you do your upgrade?

 I think you used an outdated version of "release-upgrade"

Hi Blorente!

Sorry but nope, i use the web ui...

I update to the latest version before i tried the upgrade.
The upgrade is started from the web interface....
And under the upgrade i didn't see any major issue....
Some small dependency issue has been occurred but nothing bigger....

BR,
Gábor Strama

Ok, thats the same, the button of the GUI runs a CGI that executes the release upgrade script, keep in mind that you used an outdated script because the latest and proved release script for 6.2 was released yesterday in zentyal-core 6.2.7 in https://github.com/zentyal/zentyal/commit/225ac49fd6c0aeeb9bba139aea290a7e2c4ca3c0

The issue that you suffer occurs because the new version of nginx needs a longer key than the old, if you already have an updated version of zentyal core (7.0.x) you'll need to run

rm -rf /var/lib/zentyal/conf/ssl
/usr/share/zentyal/create-certificate /var/lib/zentyal/conf/ssl `hostname --fqdn`

Anyway, if you have a backup, restore it, update your system to the latest 6.2.x version of every package and run again the upgrade.

Well as luck would have it I just hosed out my only server.
DNS wont upgrade:
Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install zentyal-core
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
zentyal-core is already the newest version (7.0.0).
You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 zentyal-dns : Depends: zentyal-core (< 7.0.0) but 7.0.0 is to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

sudo apt --fix-broken install
attempts to upgrade zentyal-dns but fails
Code: [Select]
Preparing to unpack .../zentyal-dns_7.0.0_all.deb ...
Unpacking zentyal-dns (7.0.0) over (6.2.0) ...
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/zentyal-dns_7.0.0_all.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite '/etc/bind/db.root', which is also in package bind9 1:9.11.3+dfsg-1ubuntu1.14
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/zentyal-dns_7.0.0_all.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

sudo dpkg --configure -a does not solve it
sudo apt-get autoremove does not solve it:
Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get autoremove
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 zentyal-dns : Depends: zentyal-core (< 7.0.0) but 7.0.0 is installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

I attempted to update since I have been seeing the "Update to 7.0" in the gui for maybe 6 weeks.
But as I read that was just a screw up on the developers side and somehow that was popping up when it should not have been.

Not really sure what to do now, besides just rebuild and waste the rest of my week and the clients time.

DNS will not install, logins won't function, and Domain Controller and File Sharing is not installed now.

Any ideas???? Doubt I can roll back in any way.

UPDATE:
Success, I rolled back.
Edited sources.list, removed 7.0
removed Zentyal, sudo apt-get remove zentyal-core zentyal-software
re-installed it all
Had to hack DNS to get out and install again
Edited resolve.conf, added upstream router as DNS
sudo apt-get update (->>it worked so I know DNS is resolving)
sudo apt-get zentyal-core zentyal-software
Installs the basics, screws up resolve.conf again, so can't install Domain, NTP (what I use and need)
Edited resolve.conf again as above
Via the Zentyal Gui, install Domain Controller and File Sharing, NTP
Installs successfully.
All users, groups, computers are in place.
----
Only issue is I can't map drives. I assume I can re-attach the workstation(s) and that will fix it, which is a pain in the ass, but better than rebuilding the entire domain from scratch.
Working on the issue. Can't ping by FQDN, I'll go back though and test that path, make sure DNS is setup correctly.

Hi all,

Thanks for the feedback. Until now we have not been able to reproduce issues in the upgrade process itself (few issues that were affecting deployments with multiple DCs have been fixed now). What is very important is that you have the system fully updated and in the latest version (6.2.7) and also, that you have Internet connection (network connectivity issues might cause errors in the upgrade process). Please also make a full backup and have a roll-back procedure in place before upgrading.

BR.
