UPGRADING ezmlm-web 3.2 to ezmlm-web 3.3
|
|
|
|
1) the file webusers is mandatory
|
|
The admin has to add ALLOW_CREATE or user-specific permissions to the
|
|
webusers file, to allow changes to mailing lists otherwise no changes are
|
|
allowed. If you have ezmlm-web running already, a webusers file has already
|
|
been created for you (this was actually a bug - see issue #51 in the bug
|
|
database).
|
|
This change should not have any negative impact on working installations.
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
UPGRADING ezmlm-web 3.1 to ezmlm-web 3.2
|
|
|
|
1) the following dependency was added:
|
|
- File::Path
|
|
|
|
2) CSS stylesheet file
|
|
The css stylesheet file changed significantly. Please update your copy.
|
|
Additionally the stylesheet file was splitted into a common and a color
|
|
scheme part. Thus you need to specify the location of your color scheme
|
|
CSS file (a URL) in your ezmlmwebrc as HTML_CSS_COLOR. Otherwise your web
|
|
interface will be plain black and white. Read 'man ezmlmwebrc' for details.
|
|
|
|
Be aware that at least one of the supplied color schemes requires some
|
|
images to be available in the directory of the stylesheet file.
|
|
The easiest approach would be to publish the 'www-data' directory via an
|
|
'Alias' (or something similar) with your favourite web server.
|
|
Take a look at examples/apache.conf.dist for an example.
|
|
|
|
3) possible locations of ezmlmwebrc
|
|
ezmlm-web does no longer search for a configuration file (ezmlmwebrc) in
|
|
the current directory, as this can be a security risk.
|
|
If you relied on this behavior (should be rare), then you have two options:
|
|
A) move your configuration file to one of the other possible locations
|
|
B) patch the source of ezmlm-web.cgi to include the deprecated
|
|
configuration file location. Do this on your own risk!
|
|
|
|
4) renamed configuration setting
|
|
The configuration setting 'HTML_CSS_FILE' is replaced by 'HTML_CSS_COMMON'
|
|
for clarity. 'HTML_CSS_COMMON' falls back to the value of 'HTML_CSS_FILE'
|
|
if it is undefined. Thus your setup should work as before. But you are
|
|
encouraged to replace the setting, as it might break your setup in a
|
|
future version of ezmlm-web.

|
|
|
|
UPGRADING ezmlm-web 3.0 to ezmlm-web 3.1
|
|
|
|
1) update the perl module Mail::Ezmlm to v0.07
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
UPGRADING ezmlm-web 2.3 to ezmlm-web 3.0
|
|
|
|
1) install clearsilver (see INSTALL for details)
|
|
|
|
2) copy the "template" directory somewhere (see INSTALL again)
|
|
|
|
3) set "TEMPLATE_DIR" in your ezmlmwebrc file to this directory
|
|
|
|
4) copy the languge directory somewhere and adjust the "LANGUAGE_DIR" setting
|
|
|
|
4) maybe you want to define "MAIL_DOMAIN" in your ezmlmwebrc
|
|
|
|
5) the search order for ezmlmwebrc has changed
|
|
from HOME -> SYSTEM -> CGI_DIR
|
|
to HOME -> CGI_DIR -> SYSTEM
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
UPGRADING ezmlm-web 2.2 to ezmlm-web 2.3
|
|
|
|
1) set the location (URL) of the css file in ezmlmwebrc
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
UPGRADING ezmlm-web 2.1 to ezmlm-web 2.2
|
|
|
|
1) Creating of new lists is now controlled by a line in the webusers file instead
|
|
of a commandline switch for ezmlm-web.cgi.
|
|
|
|
necessary changes:
|
|
- optional: remove switch "-c" when calling ezmlm-web.cgi (take a look at index.c)
|
|
- optional: add a line like "ALLOW_CREATE: john, myra" to the webusers file
|
|
|
|
2) The location of the webusers file is now defined in ezmlmwebrc. (default: $LIST_DIR/webusers)
|
|
|
|
necessary changes:
|
|
- optional: add a line like "$WEBUSERS_FILE = /home/ml/webusers" to ezmlmwebrc
|
|
|
|
3) A german translation is available.
|
|
|
|
- optional: include "lang/de.pm" in ezmlmwebrc (there you can also remove the english definitions)
|
|
or copy the new ezmlmwebrc :)
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
UPGRADING ezmlm-web 2.0 to ezmlm-web 2.1
|
|
|
|
There are no major changes that need to be made in order to upgrade. All
|
|
that is necessary is to add two new lines to your ezmlmwebrc ... In the top
|
|
section of the file add
|
|
|
|
$FILE_UPLOAD = 1;
|
|
|
|
and in the %HELPER section, you need to add
|
|
|
|
addaddressfile => 'or you may enter the filename of a plain text file containing multiple RFC822 email addresses, one per line',
|
|
|
|
(or just copy the new ezmlmwebrc :)
|
|
|
|
Have a look for these two lines in the new ezmlmwebrc included in this
|
|
distribution if you are unsure of how/where to put these.
