BETA of OpenEMM 25.04 now available!

[maschoff]

We just published the first BETA version of OpenEMM 25.04.

Please have a look at our OpenEMM Wiki (https://wiki.openemm.org) with
* videos
* a Factsheet with all new and improved features
* a new and improved Install&Admin Guide (EN only)

You can upgrade your OpenEMM version with your OpenEMM Maintenance Tool OMT. First step is upgrading the frontend runtime to a 25.04 release. Please be aware that OMT was renamed to OST (OpenEMM Support Tool) with version 25.04 to reflect its increasing scope. You can also use OST to install the completely revised new user documentation for OpenEMM 25.04 (EN and DE).

We put a LOT of work into this new release and we hope that you will enjoy the new version. As usual, we are ready to fix any bugs you find and report here!

Today we have published a new (and probably the last) BETA version of OpenEMM 25.04: 25.04.000.100 !

[JuergenB]

Almalinux 8.10 has switched to Python3.11 as default version.
Almalinux 9.5 still has Python3.9.12 as the default.

Even with an installation of Python 3.11 as recommended in your admin guide, Python 3.9.12 will be the default version.

so ...

Code: Select all

sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python3 python3 /usr/bin/python3.11 1

or the runtime will need to call python3.11

But why does the runtime installer still tries to installs java-11-openjdk

Code: Select all

Install a JAVA environment by command 'yum install java-11-openjdk java-11-openjdk-devel'
Do you want to install a JAVA environment now? (N/y, Blank => Cancel):

the installer option 5. Install or update package from AGNITAS Website behaves strangely,
it relies on US locales installed, with US missing and with DE locales installed, it keeps failing.

Code: Select all

/home/openemm/scripts/config.sh: Zeile 85: Warnung: setlocale: LC_ALL: Kann die Regionseinstellungen nicht ändern (en_US.UTF-8).

We will have a look at the AlmaLinux 9 issues. We ourselves still prefer to use AlmaLinux 8.
