Forthcoming csf file and directory changes

In the next release (due in the next few days) we will be moving csf towards the Linux Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS), rather than installing everything in /etc/csf/. The following structure will be used:

        /etc/csf/           - (mostly) configuration files
        /var/lib/csf/       - temporary data files
        /usr/local/csf/bin/ - scripts
        /usr/local/csf/lib/ - perl modules and static data
        /usr/local/csf/tpl/ - email alert templates

The functionality  and usage of csf remains the same with the csf CLI running from /usr/sbin/csf as it does now. The main difference will be the storing of temporary data in /var/lib/csf/. All the configuration files (apart from the email alert templates and regex.custom.pm) remain in /etc/csf/.

Existing data and templates files are migrated into the new structure automatically when upgrading to the new version. Some files and directories are symlinked to /etc/csf/ for backwards compatibility and ease of use. Nothing needs to be done at all other than performing a standard upgrade.

This information is being provided more for information than anything else, incase you panic because things appear to have suddenly disappeared from your installation. If you are modifying csf through anything other than the provided CLI or modification of the configuration files, you will have to take into consideration the location of, for example, the temporary data.

Here is a sample listing from those directories:

ConfigServer Script Updates

With the release of updates to all of our cPanel scripts, if you would like a convenient way to upgrade all of your installed ConfigServer scripts on a cPanel server then we have provided a simple script that can do this for you:
This script will update: cmm, cmc, cmq, cse, csf, cxs, msinstall, msfe
Only those scripts that are already installed will be updated. Those that are updated are done so regardless as to whether they are the same or an older version of those available.
To use this method you must be logged into root via SSH to the server and then run:

curl -s configserver.com/free/csupdate | perl

You should take care to read through the output to ensure that all the upgrades have worked as expected.

New cse v1.10

Changes:
– Added support for cPanel v11.38.1+ AppConfig addon registration
– Improvements to the Virtual Console output

NOTE: In accordance with the new conventions for v11.38.1+ AppConfig the url to the csf WHM plugin will change from /cgi/addon_cse.cgi to /cgi/configserver/cse.cgi. This will only happen with cse v1.10+ and cPanel v11.38.1+. Older version of cse will continue to use the old URL. This has no particular relevance to users accessing through WHM, but will affect direct URL access by users or third party applications

WHM/cPanel v11.36 in STABLE

cPanel v11.36 has now entered the STABLE tree and you will notice that most of your addon perl scripts failing. You can resolve this easily with our addons by reinstalling them. We have provided a simple script that can do this for you that we posted previously. This has to be done regardless as to whether you are running the latest versions:
This script will update: cmm, cmc, cmq, cse, csf, cxs, msinstall, msfe
Only those scripts that are already installed will be updated. Those that are updated are done so regardless as to whether they are the same or an older version of those available.
To use this method you must be logged into root via SSH to the server and then run:
curl -s configserver.com/free/csupdate | perl
You should take care to read through the output to ensure that all the upgrades have worked as expected.
