Hi all;
In response to a problem found with batch processing in 1.4 and confirmed
in 1.3, we have gone ahead and released 1.3.44 a bit early and with a
fairly small changelog. Especially if you use batch processing on 1.3 you
should upgrade. Long-time users may not notice the problem on older,
upgraded databases, but with newer databases, the batch locks may lock
users out of the software.
The accompanying 1.4 release corrects a number of minor issues in 1.4.1.
Additionally there have been some reports of silent failures when creating
databases. In the cases we have been able to look at so far, this has been
caused by Apache not being able to find the PostgreSQL client programs.
Better handling of this condition will occur in future versions but in the
mean time, we are happy to provide support for users experiencing this
issue on the -users list.
I have also revised the RPM packaging so that it uses the Dojo packages of
RHEL, Fedora, and friends.
Finally a note on the recent Shell Shock vulnerability in GNU Bash. We
have tested the software in typical configurations and found that the
vulnerability profile is fairly low. We expect to release a longer
statement soon. While you should certainly update to address this
vulnerability (especially given other remote exploits elsewhere on the
system), LedgerSMB is not a significant attack vector as typically deployed.
The following are the changelog for these releases:
Changelog for 1.4.2
* Separated address classes for employees out (bug 817, Chris T)
