The following updates will be sent out to all Apache shared hosting servers beginning on Jan 27, 2010.

Email Messages Routed to Spam Bug Fix

Code updated so that blacklisted email addresses do not result in all email messages from that domain to be routed to SPAM. Now, when a customer adds an email like Joe@a_real_domain to a blacklist, other email messages from that domain will make it past the blacklist. Previously, when a customer added Joe@a_real_domain to their blacklist, email messages from others like jack@a_real_domain would go to trash. This update fixes that problem.

MySQL V5 UPGRADE PROCESS—NEW INFORMATION

We have added a knowledgebase article on how to

upgrade to MySQL 5

SpamAssassin EMERGENCY Patch

(Already implemented)

SpamAssassin had a scoring rule bug that caused some email messages sent after January 1, 2010 to be incorrectly labeled as “spam.” This fix ensured that the spam scoring for all customers returned to 2009 levels. It was patched on January 6, 2010.

Calendar 8 Rollback

Due to an unresolved bug in Calendar 8, the feature has been pulled from this release. An upgraded version of Calendar 8 will be offered in a subsequent release.

Added Gallery2 to Control Panel Features

The Gallery feature on the Control Panel has been joined by Gallery2, so customers can manage picture files using MySQL (Gallery1 does not use MySQL). For more information about Gallery, see: http://gallery.menalto.com/. VSAP updated for this feature.

Note: Gallery 2 requires MySQL to function. It will not be visible in accounts that have MySQL disabled. A few strings were added to the English and Japanese versions to the website.xml and global.xml files in association with this feature.

Upgraded Site Search

The Swish-e feature (Labeled as Site Search on the Control Panel) has been updated to version 2.4.7. This version is available to any customer that is not using Site Search at this time. Current Site Search users will have to delete the following files to use the new version:

/usr/home/userid/index.swish
/usr/home/userid/swish.conf
/usr/home/userid/www/htdocs/sitesearch.html
/usr/home/userid/www/cgi-bin/query.pl
/usr/home/userid/www/cgi-bin/query.pl

Customers will then go to their Control Panel to install Site Search again. After deleting the files and redoing the install, customers can use the newer version. For more information about Swish-e, see: http://swish-e.org/

Note: The files strings/website.xml and strings/global.xml were modified in association with this feature.

Update phpMyFAQ

Updated code so that customers could upgrade to phpMyFAQ v2.5.4. New phpMyFAQ customers will get this version when they install the feature. Current phpMyFAQ customers must back up their phpMyFAQ content before installing the current version. To perform the upgrade, current customers must access phpMyFAQ through their Control Panel, uninstall phpMyFAQ, and then reinstall the application to use v2.5.4. For more information, see: http://www.phpmyfaq.de/changelog.php

Urchin Default Settings Update

Updated code so that customers can set the default installation locale of Urchin in the Branding System.

Upgraded ShopSite Update Button

Customers can now click a link in the Control Panel to upgrade their ShopSite 9 accounts to ShopSite 10. Once a customer upgrades to ShopSite 10, they will not be able to roll back to version 9. For more information about ShopSite, see: http://shopsite.com/news_10_0_released.html.

Changelog

Updated the “What is New” file.

File Manager Updates

Added a feedback message and character rules to File Manager so customers will know if they fail in their attempt to create a directory. This fix also includes a change so that the following characters cannot be used in a file name: | : * < > ? / ” \

Fixed a bug where File Manager was allowing double quotes in a file name. A customer now sees an error message when they attempt to create a file name with double quotes.

UserID Field in Web Access Bug Fix

Code updated so that customers cannot use double quotes when creating a userID in the WebAccess feature.

View CSR in Digital Certificate Bug Fix

Code updated so that customers can view the digital certificate CSR without scrolling to the bottom of the page.

Email Updates/Bug Fixes

Updated rc.whitelist, so that customers can create a WhiteList entry that will not be blocked by the RBL settings.

Updated Blacklist so that the proper Whitelist entries make it to the customer’s IN box; when a Blacklist entry is made, the entry was causing email messages associated with certain whitelist entries from making it past the filters.

Updated Code so that qmail-smtpd will check tmlocals AFTER it checks locals.

Updated Code so that email addresses with multiple periods (…) display correctly in Webmail.
