[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1560792671923{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Write sites and apps in any language and they’ll be versatile enough to fit the complicated requirements of most businesses. But for custom app builds, the extra effort’s time-consuming. So shorten deployment time of web services, apps, and APIs by using frameworks. You’ll be able to reuse code and simplify common tasks like database access and session management. Rasmus Lerdorf, PHP creator, never would have thought in 1994 that his scripting language would go on to be the most widely used server-side worldwide. Same for David Heinemeier Hansson, author of the Ruby on Rails framework that began…

Joomla! 3.3.6 Released

Oct01
by Ike on October 1, 2014 at 5:15 pm
Posted In: CMS, Community, Joomla, Project Release News, Releases

Joomla! 3.3 - Do More

Security ReleaseThe Joomla! Project is pleased to announce the immediate availability of Joomla 3.3.6. This is a maintenance release addressing issues with yesterday’s 3.3.5 release. This release addresses an issue related to the core update component, one regression in the user password reset process, and adds a fallback upgrade mechanism for the update component. This release is considered a security release since it includes two resolved security issues associated with 3.3.5. A 3.2.7 release is also available for users who are still using Joomla! 3.2 which addresses the security issues and the upgrade component bug.

If you are currently running a Joomla! release on a server with PHP 5.3.10 or later, we encourage you to update immediately to Joomla! 3.3.6 via either the one-click update or the update downloads available at http://www.joomla.org/download.html.

Note that in order to update directly to 3.3.6 via the core update component, you must be running 3.2.2 or later due to the raised minimum supported PHP version and the update system not supporting checking the server’s PHP version in older releases. Older 3.x releases will be prompted to update to 3.2.7 before being presented the 3.3.6 update.

Special Download Instructions

Because of the issue with the update component, users who are running 3.2.6 or 3.3.5 will be unable to update to the next release using Joomla’s update component. These users will be required to update their Joomla! installation via the Extension Manager. Instructions for updating via the Extension Manager can be found on the Joomla! Documentation Wiki. Users who are running Joomla! 3.3.0 through 3.3.4 and 3.2.5 or earlier will be able to update using the update component. The Joomla! Documentation wiki contains full instructions on how to update your site.

The following issues were resolved:

[-] Migration failed if the migrated objects were already present on the destination server. (PPPM-919)
[-] When users created a subscription based on a service plane that had the option “Redirect to external mail server with IP address” switched on, Panel issued the error “Unable to create DSMail: Email address is invalid”.(PPPM-1069)
[-] (Linux) If more than 255 IP addresses were added to Panel, the script mailsrv_conf_init failed with the error “Incorrect format of RTM_GETADDR request response”. (PPPM-1274)
[-] (Windows) The training function for SpamAssassin attempted to use mail of suspended domains. (PPPM-1122)
[-] (Windows) The training function for SpamAssassin failed if a wrong IMAP connection string was specified. (PPPM-1122)
[-] (Linux) Instead of a PHP handler’s php.ini file, the system default php.ini file was used to generate a domain-level php.ini file. As a result, sometimes custom PHP for a domain did not work. (PPPM-893)
[-] (Linux) To avoid heap-based buffer overflow in the mod_fcgid module (CVE-2013-4365), the mod_fcgid module shipped with Panel was updated to version 2.3.9. (PPPM-1314)
