Re: movetopublicfolder.py error No module named 'ConfigParser'

Hello,
I just updated Kopano from 8.6.9 to 8.7.9 on CentOS 7.7.
The following errors showed up in kopano-dagent.log

Sat Dec 14 14:59:47 2019: [ 2421] [error  ] !-- failed to load: /var/lib/kopano/dagent/plugins/movetopublic.py
Sat Dec 14 14:59:47 2019: [ 2421] [error  ] !-- error: No module named configparser

I found that old thread but it did not solve the problem. I ended up with replacing the files

zconfig.py
plugins/movetopublic.py

from my backup. Then the plugin worked as before.
I also had to install libkcpyplug0 manually with

yum install libkcpyplug0

like described here

Is this a bug in dependencies or the plugin or is it a problem with our specific system?

Best regards,
Achim

Hi,

I see this on SLES12 to, this is a dependency problem.

Thank you for your answers!
@fbartels said in Missing libkcpyplug0 on Centos7/RHEL7:

you should be able to find the package in the RHEL_7_EPEL_7 archive. Other variants of RHEL/CentOS have a too old Python version and are discontinued from our side.

Is there any actual documentation about “preferred” dependencies or discontinued support of packages?
When I checked the requirements in the administration manual I only found quite old information (Kopano Core Administrator Manual 8.3.0).
Recently, updates are some kind of trial an error. That is not very satisfying.

Best regards,

the quoted sentence was in relation to the nightly packages and not the supported release packages. The “Edition 8.3.0 - Kopano Team” in https://documentation.kopano.io/kopanocore_administrator_manual/ is just a number set in the sources of the documentation, it does not reflect the version of Kopano it refers to.

Officially supported distributions are stated in the manual. But my personal recommendation would be to go for a Debian based system as it has the largest user base among Kopano users and therefore receives the most testing.
