Any news about 10.04 support ?
Thx
I’d be happy to test any beta’s. Ubuntu 10.04 is now essential for me.
Any status on 10.04?
Same here, any news?
Awaiting for the update as well.
Any update at all?
I’m also eagerly awaiting this. Any chance someone could throw us a bone of information? Even just some progress info?
I’m sorry to add to this thread, as i’m sure your working on it, but I’m getting to the point where this is becoming an issue for me.
All I ask for is just a quick update, let us know how far off this support is.
Thanks

If its getting to the point where it is an issue for you why don’t you simply install everything manually? No need to get upset about it, only takes a short amount of time.
Ubuntu is one of the most popular server OS distributions, so you can be sure the Virtualmin team are working on it.
Personally I’ve decided to stick to Debian as I found there to be some stability problems with Ubuntu.
Well, I tried to install everything manually in 9.04 and got a partially working config. Arguably better than nothing at all, but certainly not everything that virtualmin is. I’ve also got a cloudmin license that unsuccessfully tries to install virtualmin on ubuntu, and fails.
So if you have a procedure for installing virtualmin manually, that works, I’d be happy to learn of it.
But you can agree that the suggestion of retreat is unexciting. You retreated to debian. I may retreat to centos. My problem is that to retreat to centos means that I have to change my hardware platform as centos has issues that ubuntu solves on my hardware. And we’re giving up native support for apache TLS SNI support for SSL certificate overloading that is not native in the other OS’s. Not that it can’t be done, just that it is more work. Or worse, a TLS SNI patched apache gets wiped out from an update at some point in the future.
The absolute lack of status likely indicates that there is to be no update any time soon. Very discouraging.
I’m sure most of us on this threat have been using Virtualmin and f’in around always trying to make every feature work why it does NOT.
This threat has been going for a while and not one single reply from the great ones, and this kinda ticks me off.
Then people come on here and rant that they think they know better and suggest things like do it yourself.
Nice.
Look at the support list for this package and you see that there has not been a decent update in sometime. Yah sure some things here and there and updated install scripts…ticks my ass.
I submit support ticket and get told to run without feature.
I search in these forums for similar problems and nobody replies to these…blanks
And then dumb asses come on and think they got an answer for everything when they are not qualified.
So what is going on with this project anyways.
I would think by now that there would be more momentum, and if there is not, start outsourcing for some more dam features…like billing and keeping up with LTS.
And stupid things like redirecting me to SSL after install instead of non-ssl after install script, or even making anything non-php actually work!!
So…is someone going to step up and take us seriously, like serious.
I just renewed my Lic, and hoping that this ‘Package’ actually start putting out.
How about getting some answers.
Anyone??
Sorry rpg, if I came across like I was having a dig at anyone, that wasn’t my intention and didn’t mean any disrespect.
I do agree with you that manual install can be a pain. I had issues with apache myself and preferred how things worked in debian. Guess I should think twice before ‘opening my mouth’ on a forum full of experienced system admins 
freebrew, although a very ‘strong’ response, I must agree with you. The Virtualmin project has been less then fun when it comes to public relations. Would be nice to see a (even very rough) roadmap or just simply hear from the developers. Other then the minor updates every now and then that pop up, it seams there is no other contact from any of the virtualmin team.
The 2 things I’ve always thought the project lacked was a clear scene of direction through public communication and good user experience/user interface. I think it would make great business scence to really give virtualmin a rehaul, it’s still got great potential to take market share from the other big players namely cpanel, plesk.
Really need an update on this, folks.
I’m maintaining a live & active server running Ubuntu 10.04, and doing absolutely nothing useful except slowly siphoning away funds from my budget. I also can’t afford to take the time to manually install everything from scratch only to have it ultimately not work just right.
We had to install 10.04 because we need to be able to rely on long-term support availability; but If I’d had any inclination it would have taken this long to get an Install script updated for 10.04, I probably would have gone ahead with a different product (which I may do anyway at this point). Can we please get a GENUINE update as to how far away we are on this? If you tell me it’s a month, I’ll plan for that; but if you can’t give me a timeframe, then I’ll just have to spend my money elsewhere.
Thanks.
I’m in the same boat as creatorbri; can you give us an estimated timeline for official installer support for 10.04? I need to plan accordingly, as the clients are getting restless. Thanks!
I also really need a timeline on this. I’m more than a bit concerned over the lack of feedback on this thread from the folks at Virtualmin. Why no response at all?
So the question I have is about doing the install manually, as someone mentioned above. I’m certainly no stranger to installing packages in Linux. So assuming one can install and configure the modules necessary for Virtualmin (apache, mysql, etc. etc.), will Virtualmin work? Completely, or partially? Has anyone tried this?
Of particular importance to me is adding/editing email users, managing domain and user quotas, adding/editing new virtual domains.

This should be upgraded to an issue because no one on the virtualmin team is really reading this
Anyone??
Ah that would include me too, a customer as well.
In favor of the webmin team I’d say a few things:
Updating the install.sh isn’t going to cut it without the proper repository. Making such repo is not done overnight and needs to be done properly. This is very time consuming.
The webmin company consists of only 3 people.
Joe is on the road for a year and hasn’t always a good connection to work decently (amongst other issues he encounters on the road) and happens to be the one working on the repos.
The focus is aimed at customers based most popular OS (which is CentOS)
The install.sh works fine on Ubuntu 8.04 tls, one could upgrade the OS later when Virtualmin has the repo in place.
Creating a support ticket usually works better if wanting to talk to the developers opposed to this user-based forum where you mostly deal with other virtualmin users and customers like myself.
Personally I think your post reads more like trolling than as a valued entry to the issue at hand, but that could just be me.
I count 6 responses from a virtualmin team member. There is no time line.
Also there are multiple threads about 10.04 LTS… just saying…
And I apologize, but I just haven’t heard any details as to the progression of things. If you’re a customer and you really want to get a feel for how things are progressing, the best I can offer are to do what Ronald mentioned – to file a support request using the Support link above.
One thing to watch out for with Ubuntu 10.04 is that an awful lot of PHP apps don’t work correctly with PHP 5.3.x. I’ve seen significant issues with simply using PHP 5.2.10+, even with the cgi.fix_pathfinfo set to 0.
So that may play a part in all this, I’m not entirely certain how that’ll be handled

Yes, and those can chose to remain on ubuntu 8.04. PHP 5.3 is precisely what makes ubuntu 10.04 attractive: modern software. We’ve had to re-adapt our PHP application for 5.3 and all changes were very minor.
