[rant] So many breaks this 1.9.x update brought

I am going to disable auto update because of this bad experience I had with it. to me looks like poor testing was done.

webmail broken, file manager not working, some people reported full website not working. and it can only be solved manually.

The developers have been testing for months and have also requested users to install beta versions and report issues during this period.

This version has been thoroughly tested.

Webmail has been instantly fixed with 1.9.1, aswell as @Gohrum writes, there has been multiple testings. We upgraded more than 65k servers, that there are some issues is usualy normal.

Please feel free to use cpanel, if you want to have warranty.

The update should have done some things automatically but it didn’t.

For example the file /home/admin/.ssh/hst-filemanager-key should have changed ownership to hestiaweb:hestiaweb automatically but it didn’t.
I hope more testing will be done in the future and more care is given before pushing updates especially major updates.

How many tests have you participated in? Stop discrediting; if you don’t like it, go to a paid panel.
The creators of this panel, to me, are great people, and on top of that, they don’t charge anything fixed for it.
By the way, how much have you donated to the project?

How do I become a tester?

Stop discrediting; if you don’t like it, go to a paid panel.

Why are you being so aggressive? I am giving feedback, this post is on the “Site Feedback” section.

I have never discredited anyone on my post what is that? I am giving the fact that the tests were not enough, and that issues that need manual fix appeared.

These are facts I have never said bad things, this project is a great free alternative to cpanel.

By the way, how much have you donated to the project?

Currently I have donated nothing.
