BOA-2.3.8 Full Edition
We are happy to release BOA-2.3.8 Full Edition, with includes updated versions of all supported Drupal platforms to provide latest Drupal 7.34 and Pressflow 6.34 cores, new features and fixes.
### Stable BOA-2.3.8 Release - Full Edition ### Date: Sat Nov 29 09:58:45 SGT 2014 ### Includes Aegir 2.x-head with improvements # Release Notes: This new BOA release includes new features, improvements and bug fixes. #-### Support for optional Drupalgeddon daily checks on all hosted D7 sites ~/static/control/drupalgeddon.info Previously enabled by default, now requires this control file to still run daily, because it may generate some false positives not always possible to avoid or silence, so it no longer makes sense to run this check daily, especially after BOA has run it automatically for a month and finally even disabled automatically all clearly compromised sites. Note that your system administrator may still enable this with root level control file /root/.force.drupalgeddon.cnf, so it will still run, even if you will not create the Octopus instance level empty control file: ~/static/control/drupalgeddon.info Please note that current version of Drupalgeddon Drush extension needs the 'update' module to be enabled to avoid even more false positives, so BOA will enable the 'update' module temporarily while running this check, which in turn will result with even more e-mails notices sent to the site admin e-mail, if these notices are enabled. #-### Support for automated BOA upgrades: weekly and one-time You can configure BOA to run automated upgrades to latest stable version for both Barracuda and all Octopus instances with three variables, empty by default. All three variables must be defined to enable auto-upgrade. You can set _AUTO_UP_MONTH and _AUTO_UP_DAY to any date in the past if you wish to enable only weekly system upgrades. Remember that one-time upgrades will include complete upgrade to latest BOA stable for Barracuda and all Octopus instances, while weekly upgrade is designed to run only 'barracuda up-stable system' upgrade. _AUTO_UP_WEEKLY= #------ Day of week (1-7) for weekly system upgrades _AUTO_UP_MONTH= #------- Month (1-12) to define date of one-time upgrade _AUTO_UP_DAY= #--------- Day (1-31) to define date of one-time upgrade All three variables should be added in your /root/.barracuda.cnf file. # Updated Octopus platforms: ERPAL 2.2 -------------------- https://drupal.org/project/erpal # New features and enhancements in this release: * Support for automated BOA upgrades: weekly and one-time. # Changes in this release: * Drupalgeddon daily checks on all hosted D7 sites are now optional. # Fixes in this release: * Issue #508 - The _EASY_HOSTNAME is not required in local install mode. * Issue #516 - Do not break binaries detection with 'which'.
