In the installer, there is no possibility to immediately install cgroup (resource limitation)

jekasumy · August 10, 2026, 1:55pm

There is no translation into Russian or Ukrainian.

The version with the installation of mysql 8 also does not work:

The method to add the repo has not changed so looks like a local problem. I’ve also tested it and no problem at all adding the repo and the signing key. The same for mysql8.

I don’t think that will be included in the 1.10.0 release. No new features will be added until after the 1.10.0 release.

That’s strange. This PR was merged yesterday, and it was supposed to include the latest Ukrainian localization.

sahsanu · August 10, 2026, 3:18pm

I’ve tested Ukrainian and it is translated:

jekasumy · August 10, 2026, 5:57pm

I changed the language. Unfortunately, it does not display. It may not be included in the update.

jekasumy · August 10, 2026, 5:58pm

I did a test installation on hetzner vps. Clean server on debian 13, without ipv6

sahsanu · August 10, 2026, 6:09pm

It is, the screenshot I posted above is from a fresh install of Hestia 1.10.0~rc1 on Debian 13.

I don’t know what happened but it works fine on my end, as I said, there are no changes to the steps to add the nginx repo.

This is what Hestia does (example using arch=amd64):

mkdir -p /root/.gnupg/ && chmod 700 /root/.gnupg/
echo "[ * ] NGINX"
echo "deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/nginx-keyring.gpg] https://nginx.org/packages/mainline/debian/ trixie nginx" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nginx.list
curl -s https://nginx.org/keys/nginx_signing.key | gpg --dearmor | tee /usr/share/keyrings/nginx-keyring.gpg

jekasumy · August 10, 2026, 6:21pm

I’ll try to reinstall it a little later)

As I understand it, there will be no IPv6 support in the panel?

They should be included in the translations..

Also only test server

I can correct the Ukrainian and Russian translations if needed.

eris · August 10, 2026, 6:26pm

jekasumy · August 10, 2026, 6:26pm

I will make corrections for both languages and report them here.

eris · August 10, 2026, 6:28pm

There are few more string not 100%

sahsanu · August 10, 2026, 6:42pm

Double check that you installed rc1:

v-list-sys-config json | jq -r '.[]|.VERSION'

Not yet.

jekasumy · August 10, 2026, 6:45pm

I have finished the translation of the text.

jekasumy · August 10, 2026, 6:51pm

It would be nice to be able to work with two email clients.

For example, roundcube or snappymail. Your choice.

And you’re stuck with just one email domain. For example, webmail.example.com.
I’m not sure how feasible this is.

jekasumy · August 10, 2026, 8:56pm

Another incomprehensible moment:

I use remote backups via sftp to a remote server. When removing a user from the panel, copies on the remote server are not deleted. Why?

Is it possible to do something so that when the user is deleted, the copies are also deleted. At least a week later, for example, after the removal, so that there would be an opportunity if something else was restored.
It is clear that you can do it somehow with custom scripts, look at which user is not in the panel and delete the backup if there is one left. But this is not a very convenient option (
