There is a new 7.9 iso available for testing at https://mirrorlist.clearos.com/clearos/testing/7.9.1.341114/iso/x86_64/ClearOS-DVD-x86_64-7.iso. This incorporates the new ca-certificates rpm recently published to get round the Let's Encrypt CA expiring. This was causing a problem during installation where the marketplace would fail until a manual update or an automatic overnight update was done. This was clearly a bad user experience.

The iso also rolls up any other changes since the last iso was created a few months ago.

I would appreciate some speedy testing so I can release the iso as soon as possible. The current new user experience is not good.

    Digging some more, the testing iso had a bad app-network package which was in the updates-testing repo. I will have one more attempt at building the iso, but ultimately it is not totally necessary as the workaround we are using (a backgound update of app-edition and app-registration when you select the version of ClearOS during the first run wizard. We have app-edition require the new ca-certificates package, so the ca-certificates package gets updated then, before the main update and marketplace steps) works but does require us to keep a copy of ca-certificates in the rarely used clearos-infra repo.

    Odd. The old release has only a beta app-network which should not have been released. The beta iso has the same app-network we've been using for 7.7 iso and possibly for isos before that.

    Do you configure the NIC during initial installation or in the console webconfig after reboot? I tend to enable it during the initial installation but will test both ways when I make the next iso, which won't be until at least next week.

    Have been unable to complete install with ISO release .341114 - External interface is not able to get an IP from ISP

    Terminal says to connect via https://w.x.y.z:81

    Attempting previous version to rule out hardware

    EDIT: release .328147 went okay, not sure why the new one gave me that issue

    I released an update last night which means that the currently released iso and previous isos will start working again and the Marketplace will work OK during the first-run wizard.

    There is still, however, a need for an updated iso but until the updated openssl gets released to the paid repos next week, I will be unable to build it. I will un-sticky this post and start a new one when there is a new iso available for testing, hopefully in a week or so.

    The iso is not good as it is pulling in openldap from upstream which is a bit ahead of ours. I am not sure why. To get round it I am updating our version of openldap to bring it into line with upstream.

    If you have used the test iso for an installation, please do a:
    yum downgrade openldap-2.4.44-22.v7
    If you don't, the directory server won't work.
