Already done!

[des (Dominik)]

Allready seen today updates → all of them points to 7.4
I am waiting to update them this evening

[pike (Michael Kicks)]

Still stucked in beta. I’ll yum tomorrow.

[m.traeumner (Michael Träumner)]

Test environment is up to date now. Yum Error occured, but after clearing yum cache it looks well.
I’ll test it.

Update: Squid, Webtop, Horde and Samba AD is running without any problems

[davidep (Davide Principi)]

Added the ISO download link and hash info. TL;DR torrent.

This is a preview release, please test it (even on bare-metal, really appreciated!) /cc @quality_team

[mrmarkuz (Markus Neuberger)]

Updated 7.3 via mobile phone, worked like a charm…

[Andy_Wismer (André Wismer)]

Hi
So far 5 Servers updated OK.

One Server brings this problem, even with a reboot:

I do have a current backup and, as the server is virtualized, even a complete image from last night, so it’s all no sweat.

But - as there’s hardly anything special on this server or it’s environment, add to that the whole system is fairly new and hardly used (Only one Windows 10 client and one windows 7 client in the AD domain) I do wonder what could have caused this problem?

The Accounts-Provider page doesn’t show any problems…

Any Feedback welcome…
Andy

[davidep (Davide Principi)]

Please look at /var/log/messages if you find any relevant error message.

You could also execute manually the following command and catch its stderr:

/usr/libexec/nethserver/list-users

@Andy_Wismer see if your logs match this…

Sssd.service times out after machine (vm) startup

NethServer Version: 7.3 updated to 7.4 Module: samba Users can’t login to access shares and cannot login to the web gui, nextcloud user clients can log in, this is what I could find in the logs afterwards… does this say anything useful to anyone?

@davidep

Manually trying this out gets me:

@davidep

/usr/libexec/nethserver/list-users

Failed to start authentication backend: NT_STATUS_INTERNAL_ERROR at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/NethServer/LdapClient.pm line 126.

This seems relevant.

Var/log/messages: (Excerpt)

This looks good:

But later on:

@fasttech

Hi

Thanks for the quick anwser. Checked that one out, but seems to be a different one…

I’ve posted excerpts of the logfile…

Thx
Andy

[iglqut (Dr Thomas Quinton)]

I think I’ll wait until next week.

[davidep (Davide Principi)]

Can you see the Samba DC version under Accounts provider page?

[mrmarkuz (Markus Neuberger)]

I updated 2 x 7.3 and 3 x 7.4b1 and nearly everything was fine except of

On a 7.4b1 update webtop5 completely lost the AD connection - NethServer domain wasn’t there anymore - I had to create it again(could copy from another NethServer), binary bind password didn’t work with copy paste, but DOMAIN\admin worked. This webtop5 did not work because of the binary password after install some time ago so I changed the config and it was a test vm for some time, maybe this was the reason.

With a fresh installed webtop on another updated 7.4b1 webtop looks ok, even with binary password:

Working on the Nethservers at first look:
samba dc/shares
nextcloud via android
nethserver http mirror
mailserver roundcube
webtop5 AD login
IPS suricata
squid proxy
content filter
antivirus
ntopng

@Andy_Wismer
Maybe you already tried but…just an idea…disable firewall with “shorewall clear” for testing

Found at the end of this thread:
http://samba.2283325.n4.nabble.com/NT-STATUS-INTERNAL-ERROR-td4705648.html

EDIT:

Fresh install with new iso also worked in a first test.

[mrmarkuz (Markus Neuberger)]

There was a nightly kernel update to 3.10.0-693.5.2.el7 and on one of my servers it worked after reboot but my managed host nethserver mirror didn’t come up again. Don’t have direct contact to the provider and no control, just SSH which doesn’t work but I will report…maybe it’s just a provider error. Just to be warned of the kernel update…

EDIT:

It was just a firewall problem, server is up again with new kernel…

@davidep

@davidep

Can you see the Samba DC version under Accounts provider page?

Yes, I could see the version of Samba, on that page everything looked ok.
However, I did not make a screenshot, and reverted the machine to the version a night before…
(This is a virtual home server for a client).

My bad. ;-(

Hi

I saw your message a little too late. As this was a clients home server running on Proxmox, i restored an image from last night, and all’s working again.

Best regards
Andy

Hi

Wanted to download the latest ISO for my personal ISO repo, but seems to be an error here:

The ISO is the older U1…
