Title: Zentyal 7 release date?
Post by: davidb on October 27, 2020, 09:41:15 pm

Hi all, is there a place to go for zentyal 7 features and release information?

Hi David,

We are currently working on the 7.0 version. As this is a major release, there are quite many changes going on on the background that require out attention still. We estimate that the new version should be out in 6-10 weeks.

Cheers,

Hi David,

Sure, thanks for the offer! I´ll let you know when the first ISO is available for testing.

If you need more beta testers, I would help, too ;-)

Hello Blorente,

Looking into deploying the new version. May I get an updated ETA regarding the release schedule?

Thanks!

This week would definitely be on the short end of their estimate; I'm not expecting anything sooner than mid-January.

Hi all,

The Zentyal Server 7.0 Beta version is now ready for testing. You can download it here:

http://download.zentyal.com/.beta/zentyal-7.0-development-amd64.iso

We are still polishing the Proxy and CA modules (we are aware that there are some minor issues). We are specially interested on receiving your feedback on the Samba module.

You can report any issues & bugs in this thread. All the feedback is much appreciated.

Woot!

Is there a change list? Any new features? Is there an issue tracker?

Someone want to clue me in on exactly what Zentyal-UCP is?  I've been through the sourcecode and looked at the installed components and still can't identify its purpose.

Title: Re: Zentyal 7 release date?
Post by: half_life on January 01, 2021, 09:34:39 pm

Nevermind,  I missed line 19 of https://github.com/zentyal/zentyal/blob/feature/ubuntu20/main/ucp/debian/control  Which states:

 This modules adds a transparent monitoring system for commercial editions

Will it be possible to keep using beta installation after full release (updating to the official release) or will I have to do fresh installation?

Title: Re: Zentyal 7 release date?
Post by: blorente on January 12, 2021, 02:02:57 pm

Hi! Beta version is experimental and might still go through some important changes so it would definitively be recommended to make a fresh install with the final version of 7.0. Cheers.

I have issues with DNS when I install AD. Before the initial Zentyal setup, "ping google.com" works (systemd-resolved takes care of the resolution). After installing the DNS in webadmin, same command won't work - "Temporary failure in name resolution".

Resolution of local names (in zentyal domain) seems to work ok.

Code: [Select]

$ dig google.com

Interface is configured with DHCP, which has 192.168.1.1 set as both DNS and gateway. Connection to DNS on that host works:

Code: [Select]

nmap -p 53 192.168.1.1

Directing dig @192.168.1.1 works as well.

Adding 192.168.1.1 to Forwarders has no effect.

Update: Disabling DNSSEC solved my issue (created modified stub for named.conf.options).

Not sure what is the cause of DNSSEC problem. My installation is on virtual machine (KVM), but has it's dedicated Ethernet (using passthrough) so acts just like ordinary server connected directly to LAN.

Another bug - cannot create configuration backup using Web interface.

Wanted to attach screenshot but it said that "upload folder is full" - it was small, 45 KB PNG. Here's copy of the error instead:

Code: [Select]

root command tar cf /var/lib/zentyal/conf//eboxbackup.tar -C /var/lib/zentyal/conf//backup.9Gbry1 eboxbackup --preserve-permissions --exclude eboxbackup/files.tgz 2>&1 failed. Error output: Command output: tar: The following options were used after any non-optional arguments in archive create or update mode. These options are positional and affect only arguments that follow them. Please, rearrange them properly. tar: --exclude ‘eboxbackup/files.tgz’ has no effect tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors . Exit value: 2

Got another problem.. Any advice? Not sure what caused this.. I noticed problems when I changed interface address and it did not update in DNS (the realm is dynamic).

Run this:

Code: [Select]

sudo samba_dnsupdate --verbose --all-names

You'll see all the samba dns records. Check them. In addition, I wonder if could be useful configure the [realm] krb5.conf section with the kdc of the realm.

Cheers!

Thanks.

Should I still do it when it started working without this? What I did is enable DHCP module and enabled Dynamic DNS in it.. It seems that the problem was using DNS without DHCP - though I am not sure what set the domain to dynamic - it happened on its own.

Title: Re: Zentyal 7 release date?
Post by: doncamilo on January 25, 2021, 02:19:03 pm

 :)

The Dynamic DNS Options can be setted on "webmin > DHCP >interface configuration > Dynamic DNS Options". Here you can enable or disable the DDNS.

I have disabled DHCP and the system seems to run properly (the DNS module shows the "Dynamic Domain" enabled though).

Could be your samba service was down when the system tried to update DNS?

Paste here the zentyal.log parts regarding network and samba errors if you need some help.

Cheers!

The samba was definitely running. Seems like the user and key for DDNS were not created because I never enabled DHCP and the option there.

Great! Do I need to do anything apart from apt upgrade to update my Beta installation to full release?
