Happy New Year! Open Beta Ready! - TGates - 01-01-2022

Hey gang! Happy New Year from the Sentora crew!

I know it's taken forever, we have some great news! The Sentora pre-v2.0 open beta will be launched for the new year! Jettaman has been incredibly busy sorting things out and getting this BETA ready for public release!
I will be posting a more formal message as soon as Jettaman sets up the links and the update URL.

NOTICE!!
This is NOT an UPGRADE! This is for FRESH installs ONLY! Do NOT try to install it on your current Sentora server! There are many database changes because of the new software version requirements.

We do have an upgrade script prepared, but since this is a BETA we want to make sure everything works as intended before rolling out the official upgrade.

Thanks for the new version!

But euh... I don't see any download link or an attachement...

Thanks for linking! did not see that thread. Is php 8 supported?
It mentioned:


Quote:Centos -
8 - PHP 7.2

Ubuntu -
18.04 - PHP 7.2
20.04 - PHP 7.4
The panel is brand new, not even officially released yet, and we are talking about centos 8
"CentOS Linux 8 will reach End Of Life (EOL) on December 31st, 2021."

And for ubuntu, well 7.2 is EOLed and 7.4 will be in 9 months... I will download and give it a try with PHP 8 to see if it works,* but imho if it does not support php 8, then it is better to wait and release it when it supports php 8.

I have downloaded Hetsia/vestaCP several times on my tests servers, considered moving on, and leaving Sentora, but I can't bring myself to do it, I just love Sentora.  If it will take another 5 years to support php 8 (by the time it is dead), it will be sad...

Thanks to all contributors for all for all the hard work

* edit: no it does not work if you update to php 8. First problem you can no longer add new websites.
if you try to run
Code:
php /etc/zpanel/panel/bin/daemon.php
you get  
Quote:"PHP Fatal error:  Declaration of db_driver::query($query) must be compatible with PDO::query(string $query, ?int $fetchMode = null, mixed ...$fetchModeArgs) in /etc/sentora/panel/dryden/db/driver.class.php on line 123"
in php7 this used to raise a warning, in 8 it became a fatal warning. I rolled back my php version to 7 and it works again now.
