Recompiled Modsecurity / disable modsecuriry /
get the following error with CLI da on the commandline

The failed to connect to bus error.
 
Try to disable modsecurity and after successful build enable it again
Code: 
da build set modsecurity no
 
@HageHosting, please open a support ticket if toggling modsecurity on and off does not fix the issue. Thanks.

@Dauser2007 and @HageHosting could it be that you have customized nginx configure script? The script was updated in DA 1.667 the official version in custombuild/configure/nginx/configure.nginx adds additional modules with --add-module=static_modules/ngx_cache_purge. Adding module with --add-module=../ngx_cache_purge was used in older DA.

Based on the error message it seems that configure script still uses old location.

Changes to the configure script is made to make sure nginx is being built in temporary directory and does leave temporary files dangling in the custombuild workdir. This also ensures nginx builds are now much more deterministic. It is not longer possible for previous failed build to affect new builds.

Local custom configure script can be removed with rm /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/custom/nginx/configure.nginx.

After updating to the new version, when changing the user's password, the DirectAdmin account works normally, but the FTP account cannot log in. Has anyone experienced this?

@ViT

I did not see any mention of this issue in the changelog. Additionally, I manually changed the password, received a completion notification, but the situation remains where the DirectAdmin account works normally, while the FTP account cannot log in.
I have tested this on two servers.

@ViT, thanks for reporting the issue. This problem only affects pureftpd (not proftpd). We will release a hot-fix for the problem today to auto-fix it. A manual fix for the time being is running da taskq --run 'action=rewrite&value=pureftp_db' from CLI.

A hot-fix update is released to make sure pureftpd passwords will stay in sync. It will refresh password DB on update to make sure no extra action is needed (just auto-receiving the hot-fix).
 
I am getting this when changing a useraccount password through DirectAdmin?

Error changing password
route ip+net: no such network interface
Click to expand...

See also included screenshot. Is the above related to this?

Never had this before in any previous DirectAdmin versions, but I started to experience this with the latest available version: Version 1.667
Which was released two days ago?

Previous versions worked all fine and without any issue?

Hello, when I try to change user password, I get error:

Error changing password

Click here to return to the main page

Details

route ip+net: no such network interface
 
@tommyB, @HHawk79, this can happen if directadmin.conf has ethernet_dev configuration entry with non existing network interface name. Older DA versions used to be fine with invalid ethernet_dev value, latest version is more strict and refuses to attempt changing password if this field is not valid.
 
Is it normal for da build versions sometimes to fail to give a new DA version? I was confused as to why it wasn't triggering. I had to do da update, and wollah...

The pessimist in me thought it could be another LLU thing.
 
When I log in to directadmin and navigate to user > terminal, nothing happens, you then refresh directadmin or press F5 to open the terminal. @fln

We use openvz for our vps servers and can't change any passwords anymore after the latest directadmin update. This is the parameter on all these virtual machines: ethernet_dev=venet0:0

How can this be fixed?

Regards
 
An update is release with the following improvements:
  • Prevent the no such network interface error, if invalid network interface is specified in ethernet_dev DA will fallback to using default server IP address.
  • Prevent the errors when domain config file has open_basedir field set to off (strict config parser used to expect OFF in upper-case).
@LawsHosting starting DA 1.666 CustomBuild will stop reporting DA updates.
@exlhost we were unable to reproduce the issue. Could you please open a support ticket so we could test it on your server?
 
@ViAdCk the real network interface name is venet0, the extra :0 suffix part was used by the legacy tool ifconfig to show multiple IP address. Removing the suffix would fix the interface lookup error. Modern tools from the iproute2 package (for example the ip a command) would show accurate interface names.
