#5595 undefined get_miniserv_config after 2.010 update

[BadBeta]

Hi,

After the 2.010 update, I got this error when I entered to my webmin website :

Undefined subroutine &main::get_miniserv_config called at /usr/share/webmin/authentic-theme/session_login.cgi line 15.

The only solutions are to downgrade to the 2.000 version or to configure gray-theme in the config files in place of authentic-theme.
It seems the last version of the authentic-theme 20.10 is not compatible with the last version of webmin.

What is your OS and version?

If you try restarting Webmin manually does it help to solve the problem?

[BadBeta]

My OS is Debian 11.
Yes I have rebooted my server and webmin but the bug was always here.

[Ilia]

Can I have a look at your Webmin config and miniserv.conf files?

Also, does reinstalling Webmin package works dor you?

[Ilia]

And one more question - how did you update Webmin exactly?

[BadBeta]

I don't want to reinstall it, there would be a lot of work to reconfigure it.
But I have downgraded it, then upgraded it again without error.
The update was processed by the repository via apt.
I will post the configuration files later.

Thank you.

I don't want to reinstall it, there would be a lot of work to reconfigure it.

I meant re-install Webmin source files not configuration, i.e. running apt-get install --reinstall webmin should work just fine.

But I have downgraded it, then upgraded it again without error.

Does it mean it works for you? If not would running /etc/webmin/restart-by-force-kill works?

I have tried to reinstall and to restart with the force kill but it doesn't work.
The only solution for me is to edit the 2 config files to replace "authentic-theme" by "gray-theme" and restart webmin.

Thanks. I see the problem now. We will fix this on the next Webmin release. This patch is here.

At the moment, you could simply fix it by removing perllib=/usr/share/webmin line from your miniserv.conf file and restart Webmin.

Also, I would like to suggest trying Authentic Theme is it's much more advanced than Gray Theme. Furthermore latest releases of Authentic are much faster.

[BadBeta]

It works now after removed the line.

Yes, it is the theme I used many years. I have rollback to use it and I can login now with this theme.
But I don't understand why the appearances of the website is not the one I used until now.
Like it's still the gray theme.

[Ilia]

You can change the theme for the current user on Webmin ⇾ Change Language and Theme page and globally (including login screen) in Webmin ⇾ Webmin Configuration: Webmin Themes page.

[BadBeta]

I changed from the Webmin Themes page but no change appears.
I have restart but still no change.
So I changed manually the theme directly in the 2 configuration files and restart webmin.
It works. All is good now like before the update.

Thank you for your help !
