I cannot make automatic update from 1.210 to 1.220. If
I select Webmin update (last version) from
www.webmin.com in module Webmin update, all data are
proper downloaded and verified, but it's all, no more
text on browser window. I had to kill all relevant
processes and (for sure) install again an old 1.210
version from rms package. It was first time problem
with webmin update, all previous updates were without
problem, all at the some procedure .
OS=Mandrake 9.2 console only (small server).

    Does this happen even if you upgrade from the command line,
    by downloading the webmin-1.220-1.noarch.rpm file , and running
    rpm -U webmin-1.220-1.noarch.rpm
    ?

    I tried update in two ways:
    1) like Webmin update (Webmin>Webmin configuration>Webmin
    update).
    2) like rpm update (system>system packages>update rpm from
    downloaded file.
    In both cases were results the some, a blank screen and no
    progress more, but in 2nd attempt (rpm update), after I
    restarted Webmin manualy, so a new version number was shown.
    I downgraded previous version, because I wasn't sure about
    proper installation of 1.220. My server works without
    keyboard and monitor
    so Webmin is the only way to control it.

    3rd way, update from command line, I'll try today and I send
    a result.

    Hi,

    I get this behaviour too, updating from the webmin screen on
    4 of my servers running 9.2 * 10.1 results in webmin
    downloading but pausing for 30 mins on the 'Applying RPM'
    message before my browser times out.

    after a reboot and trying again, the upgrade seems to have
    broken webmin somehow, when I try the same process again
    I get:

    require acl/acl-lib.pl failed :
    Undefined subroutine &acl::is_readonly_mode called
    at /usr/libexec/webmin/acl/acl-lib.pl line 8.

    I've not tried applying the rpm manually yet, should I try that?

    I would recommend trying to install the RPM from the command
    line..
    If that still hangs, try running the command :
    pstree
    to see what sub-processes of the RPM processes are running
    and hanging it up.

    Hi,

    trying to install from the command line using urpmi causes
    the session to hang:

    installing ./webmin-1.220-1.noarch.rpm

    Try installing the 1.221 development version from
    http://www.webmin.com/devel/rpm/webmin-1.221-1.noarch.rpm .
    It resolves this problem ..

    I tried update to 1-221-1 in Webmin>rpm packages>update from
    downloaded package and as yet all seems to be O.K. So I hope
    the problem was resolved. Thank You for Your fast response.

    Still one note for previous message:
    when I explore /tmp/.webmin/ directory, so there is a file
    webmin-setup.out, with date and time of last update (1-221),
    where some errors are written in acl files, concrete in
    acl-lib.pl and postinstall.pl. Due this errors an
    installation process doesn't end regulary, ie. it closes
    without any message about succesfully update, but Webmin is
    (in my opinion) fully functioning.
    Because I'm using Webmin in translated (Czech) version, so
    in attached file "Chyba"=error and "Zpet na"=back to.
    May I Try anything else for flawless update?

    On my Mandrake 10.1 system:

    I was getting
    require acl/acl-lib.pl failed :
    Undefined subroutine &acl::is_readonly_mode called
    in several places, including module upgrade and cron job update.

    Installing
    http://www.webmin.com/devel/rpm/webmin-1.221-1.noarch.rpm .
    fixes things up well.
    I installed with Mandrake's GUI installer tool.

    So, it looks like you are on the right path to fixing this
    issue.
