[webmin-l] Bash automation for Webmin

[Travis B. <tb...@gm...>]

Hello,

I developed Bash scripts to automate the installation and
configuration of open-source software (i.e., launchpad.net/linuxha and
launchpad.net/linuxsoho). I want to make sure the syntax of these
scripts is perfect so I can use them as teaching tools to educate
people about Linux.

I need to know if there is anything misconfigured with my Webmin syntax.

If you find a bug in LinuxHA or LinuxSOHO, please submit a bug report
to bugs.launchpad.net/linuxha/+filebug or
bugs.launchpad.net/linuxsoho/+filebug.

Kind regards,

Travis Bean

[Jamie C. <jca...@we...>]

Would it be possible to get the full output from those backup-domain and restore-domain commands? I'd like to see what it says about slave servers..

Re: [webmin-l] BIND9

[Dave O. <da...@sy...>]

Sometimes issues get too complex:

 

1.	NS2 has been in service with just webmin installed for years, just being a slave/secondary server.
2.	NS(others) come and go on individual virtualmin managed servers.
3.	NS11 is moving from Centos to Rocky.  NS2 is sitting bored and doing its job
4.	NS11 has been in service for years.
5.	Do the migrate thing, (just started over to verify all this)
6.	Restore step “creates records on NS2”  But really doesn’t.  (I manually fixed the “slave/secondary” issue a while back and my fix is still in place)
7.	Delete from rocky install to see what happens, says it removed records from NS2, but doesn’t.

 

Make any sense to you?

 

End result, removing a domain from a migrated install, doesn’t remove the secondary dns records.

Webmin should already handle the different names for master/primary and secondary/slave zone names, unless there's a bug.

 

What goes wrong exactly when you try to add a zone?

There are lots of places that the “master/slave” references are still there instead of “primary/secondary” but that can be generally handled, but I think probably for consistency the master/slave stuff should be gone.

 

Not a political statement, just annoying that the server and webmin don’t use the same terms.

Webmin should already handle the different names for master/primary and secondary/slave zone names, unless there's a bug.

 

What goes wrong exactly when you try to add a zone?

So, now take a look at the Bind Module in Webmin.

Add a domain as a “Slave” fails.

 

Not unexpected, as those folders aren’t there anymore.

Hi!

I have briefly looked through the mail queue.
There were 100+ mail messages stuck in the mail queue trying to reach unreachable destinations.

And what was in these messages?
That should have been the first question you've had.
WHY did they stuck in the loop?
I have an unhealthy few of those stuck regularly trying to reach their
error-path on unreachable destination.

[webmin-l] I have found out the reason why Postfix keeps getting killed by OOM Killer

[Turritopsis D. T. En M. <teo...@pr...>]

Subject: I have found out the reason why Postfix keeps getting killed by OOM Killer

Good day from Singapore,

On 1st March 2025 Saturday, my Postfix service stopped responding. When I executed the "systemctl status postfix" LINUX command, it shows that postfix was killed by the OOM Killer.

To solve the problem, I tried restarting the postfix service but it did not solve the problem.

Then I tried rebooting my Virtual Private Server (VPS) in Germany but it did not solve the problem.

As a last resort, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling postfix but it did not solve the problem as well.

My postfix service was consuming 6.2 GB of RAM before it got killed by the OOM Killer. The total amount of physical memory (RAM) my VPS has is only 8 GB. No wonder my postfix service keeps getting killed by the OOM Killer. Is this a Denial of Service (DOS) attack?

This morning, on 2nd March 2025 Sunday, I suddenly had an idea. I started checking the Mail Queue. There were 115 messages stuck in the Mail Queue! After some deliberation, I decided to clear the mail queue.

After clearing the mail queue, my postfix service resumed normal service and no longer gets killed by the OOM Killer. Clearing the mail queue actually solved the problem!

But until now I still have no idea why 115 messages stuck in the mail queue will cause postfix to consume ENORMOUS amounts of RAM and cause it to get killed by the OOM Killer. OOM = Out of Memory.

Could somebody explain why? Do you think my Virtualmin VPS server has been compromised by Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) hackers?

I am looking forward to your reply. The last time my postfix service stopped working due to a similar OOM condition was on 11 Jan 2025 Saturday, as posted earlier.

Thank you.

The trigger I think was changes in the latest Webmin to detect the 
available ProFTPd modules and version.

This is odd, but when I went to check the "Scheduled monitoring" 
settings, and chose "Save", this behavior stopped. And looking at the 
cron job now, it has the correct output re-direction.

I'm not sure what caused the behavior to change in the first place, but 
it's behaving as expected now.

The output is from the monitor.pl script, as run by the configured intervals in "Scheduled monitoring". On that particular service, there are other "monitors" too.

Hi,

My Postfix service is now working after I restored main.cf and master.cf Postfix configuration files from the backup archive “virtualmin.tar.gz”.

I can now receive emails.

May I know which other configuration files I would need to restore from the backup archive “virtualmin.tar.gz”??? In case I miss out something.

Please advise.

Thank you.

SYSTEM INFORMATION	
OS type and version	AlmaLinux 9.5
Webmin version	2.202
Virtualmin version	7.30.4
Webserver version	2.4.62
Related packages	Postfix

Dear Virtualmin and Webmin community,

I have stopped receiving emails since 11 Jan 2025 Saturday at about 3.00 AM.

I tried rebooting my AlmaLinux 9.5 Virtual Private Server (VPS) and restarting Postfix but to no avail.

Whenever I try to start Postfix, the service would be killed by the OOM Killer almost immediately.

Running "systemctl status postfix" shows oom-kill.

When I checked /var/log/messages, many related services were also killed by the OOM Killer.

But this is strange. This should not be happening at all because I have 8 GB of physical memory for my VPS.

But I do notice there were 100+ messages inside the Postfix message queue. Did my email account(s) get compromised by hackers?

Then I tried uninstalling the Postfix package and reinstalling Postfix from within Virtualmin.

After doing this, there were no more oom-kill error messages but Postfix is still not working!

I suspect that all the Postfix configuration was lost after uninstalling and reinstalling. The message queue was also reduced to zero.

Before flying to Seoul, South Korea on 7 Jan 2025 Tuesday, I had made a backup of all Virtual Servers and all Virtualmin settings on 5 Jan 2025 Sunday.

Inside the backup archive "virtualmin.tar.gz", I have the following backup files.

How should I go about restoring the Postfix configuration which was lost after uninstalling and reinstalling?

Please advise.

Thank you very much.

[webmin-l] Upgrading Rocky Linux Server from version 9.2 to 9.3 using Webmin

[Turritopsis D. T. En M. <tdt...@gm...>]

Subject: Upgrading Rocky Linux Server from version 9.2 to 9.3 using Webmin

Good day from Singapore,

I have upgraded my Rocky Linux server from version 9.2 to version 9.3
on 23 Nov 2023 Thursday between 2 pm and 2.30 pm Singapore Time.

[root@vmi701385 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Rocky Linux release 9.3 (Blue Onyx)
[root@vmi701385 ~]# cat /etc/os-release
NAME="Rocky Linux"
VERSION="9.3 (Blue Onyx)"
ID="rocky"
ID_LIKE="rhel centos fedora"
VERSION_ID="9.3"
PLATFORM_ID="platform:el9"
PRETTY_NAME="Rocky Linux 9.3 (Blue Onyx)"
ANSI_COLOR="0;32"
LOGO="fedora-logo-icon"
CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:rocky:rocky:9::baseos"
HOME_URL="https://rockylinux.org/"
BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.rockylinux.org/"
SUPPORT_END="2032-05-31"
ROCKY_SUPPORT_PRODUCT="Rocky-Linux-9"
ROCKY_SUPPORT_PRODUCT_VERSION="9.3"
REDHAT_SUPPORT_PRODUCT="Rocky Linux"
REDHAT_SUPPORT_PRODUCT_VERSION="9.3"


This is my Webmin slave DNS server in Germany. Enterprise Linux
operating system upgrade was done using Webmin server control panel.
It is very easy using the Web UI.

I am a proud user of Rocky Linux 9.3 and Webmin.

I also have a Virtualmin Master Server in Germany as well.

It only shows active leases.
Expired leases may be left in the file but they are not useful nor used in any way.

Re: [webmin-l] Webmin and Freebsd pkg upgrade

[Jamie C. <jca...@we...>]

Oh I see, you're using packages and not ports.
In that case, what output do you get if you run :
pkg search -Q comment glib
On 28/Aug/2023 18:53 Dave Overton via webadmin-list  wrote ..  Initially, the "make search" fails because I don't use or care about "/usr/ports" except when something strange happens.  So I went ahead and did a make fetchindex so it would work, then it just gives a list of 12,300 available programs.  So yes, the command as provided returned nothing to start with.
