GroupWise 24.3 is now in SLD

GroupWise 24.3, Mobility, Messenger, GWWeb and others have been available for download in OT SLD for a few hours now.


The installation went through completely without any major problems.

    Georg - thanks for that announcement.  I was going to post it yesterday but didn't get there.  I am glad that the installation went smoothly.  - Pam

    I installed it today. GW is running fine, GMS is good, client is good but I cannot get Web 24.3 to launch.  It appears to launch but the gwweb docker image is nowhere to be found.

    How did you install it? Downloaded the image file and then "docker load -i <image>" .. or you pulled "the latest" from a repo?

    Docker pull has only delivered the “old” images for 24.2. Since I worked with the first release of GWWeb in the beginning, I wanted to go through the Docker with a broom for a while and cleaned everything with Docker prune all and then copied the images locally from the SLD repo and installed them.

    docker load -i gw24.3-web_docker_multi.tar
    docker load -i gw24.3-web-config_docker.tar

    docker run -it -v /opt/novell/gw:/config -e GWADMIN_SERVICE=gwadmin@server.mydomain.com:9710 -e GWSOAP_HOST_DEFAULT=server.mydomain.com mfgroupwise/web-config:24.3.0-145940

    Cli:INFO: SMGList is empty is a hint

    docker run -d --restart always -v /opt/novell/gw:/etc/nginx/gw --name gwweb -e FQDN=server.mydomain -e DNS_SERVER=my ip of dns server -p 80:80 -p 443:443 -v /opt/novell/gw/certs:/certs -v /opt/novell/gw/logs/:/var/log/nginx/ -e GWSOAP_SSL_VERIFY=off mfgroupwise/web:24.3.0-145940
    Check result with
    docker ps --no-trunc
    and
    docker inspect gwweb for a deep dive

    Sweeping out GroupWise Web and setting it up again with wildcard certificates for the GWDVA was done in 5 minutes and working.

    The refresh from 24.2 to 23.4 of GroupWise, Messenger, Mobility including the latest SLES 15 SP5 patches took less than an hour.

    My steps were the same as I've always upgraded Web

    1) docker stop gwweb

    2) docker pull mfgroupwise/web

    3) docker run -d --rm -v /opt/novell/gw:/etc/nginx/gw --name gwweb -e FQDN=<url.domain.com> -e DNS_SERVER=<dns_ip> -p 80:80 -p 443:443 -v /opt/novell/certs:/certs mfgroupwise/web:latest

    It looks like that last command runs successfully, but there is no gwweb image. 

    "docker inspect gwweb" produces: Error: no such object: gwweb

    Did your 2nd command "docker pull mfgroupwise/web" downloaded & installed anything on the server?

    Would "docker image list" show it was updated?

    Yes it did pull new files

    "docker image list" shows:

    Seeing a plethora of old images on this screen, perhaps it is good to do some house-keeping and remove old stuff from your server(s):

    docker rmi <image_ID_number>

    I've removed all the older images....but still no resolution.

    See what output comes from "systemctl status docker.service". Might try to stop this service and start .. and then start newly gwweb.
