hi,
i tried to install virtualmin GPL on a debian wheezy and it seems there is a dependency issue on packages about scponly. Does anyone has a solution to this ? I know wheezy is here since a few days so that will be fixed, just wanted to play with it on the meantime 
regards,
Ghislain.
Howdy,
Yeah there’s a few more changes we’re working on before Debian 7 is formally supported. Once of those is that scponly isn’t offered as a package anymore… we’ll need to remove that from the dependency list.

hi,
any ETA when virtualmin / webmin for wheezy will be available?
Kristijan
i was about to ask just for basic scheduling of our upgrade if this is in the pipe for something like a week, a month or much more. If you have any frame that would help us to schedule ourself
Regards,
Ghislain.
I unfortunately don’t have a specific timeframe, but it should be soon!
-Eric
would you know if its at all possible to install virtualmin on wheezy via the virtualmin software repositories rather than the install script?
i.e http://software.virtualmin.com/gpl/debian/dists/virtualmin-wheezy/
i’ve tried manually adding the repo, but getting:
Conflicting distribution: http://software.virtualmin.com virtualmin-wheezy Release (expected virtualmin-wheezy but got virtualmin-squeeze)
so im assuming that isnt working either yet?
thanks , good luck with the debian wizardry
regards,
Ghislain.
no depedancy issues will be the same.
regards,
Ghislain.
yes! you are very correct. seems the repository was updated yesterday to show debian 7 in the Releases file… but when installing virtualmin-base:
“The following packages have unmet dependencies:
virtualmin-base : Depends: scponly but it is not installable”
suppose we’ll just have to wait until webmin/vmin devs are done 
Sorry, it’s almost ready… we’ll post an announcement once it is
Alternatively, if you just really really want it to work now (knowing that it’s not completed or tested), you could always grab the scponly package from Debian 6, which installs cleanly on Debian 7.
-Eric
Hey, when you do post the Debian 7 announcement, will there be an updated “how to” or is this post:
http://www.virtualmin.com/documentation/system/os/debian-squeeze-to-wheezy-distupgrade
the correct steps to use??
Thx!!!
I’m kinda jumping into this thread, but I’ve noticed a slight anomoly when doing an aptitude update on squeeze:

Hi The repository should be good now.
Be sure to update before upgrade.
Preference for apt-get rather than aptitude for dist-upgrades
Im ready to update my Virtualmin Pro from Debian 6.0 squeeze to Debian 7.0 wheezy.
I want an auto update script or update from the main menu of virtualmin pro.
thanks
virtualminldwms
this still seems to be happening…have just run apt-get update on an older squeeze box:

Yeah that Releases file seems remarkably incorrect… I’ve asked Joe to look into it.

Hi Guys,
just to let you know… there is still a “scponly” dependency being looked for in debian wheezy when using the new install.sh
i’ve downloaded the install script a few minutes ago. to get the install to work properly on debian wheezy, i had to remove scponly from the dep list inside install.sh
specifically from this part of install.sh:
debdeps=“postfix postfix-pcre webmin usermin ruby libapache2-mod-ruby libxml-simple-perl libcrypt-ssleay-perl unzip zip libfcgi-dev bind9 spamassassin spamc procmail libnet-ssleay-perl libpg-perl libdbd-pg-perl libdbd-mysql-perl quota iptables openssl python mailman subversion ruby irb rdoc ri mysql-server mysql-client mysql-common postgresql postgresql-client awstats webalizer dovecot-common dovecot-imapd dovecot-pop3d proftpd libcrypt-ssleay-perl awstats clamav-base clamav-daemon clamav clamav-freshclam clamav-docs clamav-testfiles libapache2-mod-fcgid apache2-suexec-custom scponly apache2 apache2-doc libapache2-svn libsasl2-2 libsasl2-modules sasl2-bin php-pear php5 php5-cgi libgd2-xpm libapache2-mod-php5 php5-mysql”
ok, and has now just failed with:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
virtualmin-base : Depends: scponly but it is not installable
WARN - apt-get seems to have failed. Are you sure your OS and version is supported?
WARN - http://www.virtualmin.com/os-support
oddly enough… im running a second install on a rackspace VPS as i speak, and scponly seems to be available on their local repository for wheezy. will try another package repository and see what happens.
getting similar scponly issues from other repositories. so have copied the scponly deb package from apt cache on the server which worked. and all good for now…
if anyone else is having issues… search for a deb package called scponly_4.8-4.1_amd64.deb on a search engine, then install it manually using dpkg -i BEFORE running install.sh
I had an install that worked but i had to do it in two times:
1/ run the install
=> fails
2/ remove ipv6 in the dovecot and postfix configuration
3/ run the install again
=> success
Dovecot and postfix are filled with ipv6 thing and as i have no ipv6 on the machine they fail to start and therefor prevent the install from working.
best regards,
Ghislain.
