Hi,
Thanks for posting your feedback. Quote How do you expect any type of security when the Nginx domain template is 5 lines from webuzo, when my NextCloud domain alone config is 128 lines of code, created following template from the provider. Nginx / Webserver are not meant to be edited by users. If you need to upload custom configuration, Webuzo has utilities to do it on a per domain based. Likewise many updated confs are re-written when updates are pushed. Its meant to simplify it for users who don't know how to maintain confs.

I can sympathize with your loss and struggle, but why even push the update? If everything is good on the server and you are not at risk of any exploits, why mess with it?
I may not be the best one to speak on the subject...All softwares are always pushing untested updates onto the "Stable" branch well-before I would personally consider them to be stable. That being said, I've had my share of difficulties with some other softwares to a much greater extent than any Softaculous product...I do feel as though Softaculous products are generally some of the soundest code to hit the "Stable" branches. I also commend them on constantly started brand new projects from scratch (deskuss looks just right for a lot of helpdesk applications). I have perfected the art of server restoration from backup in response to faulty software updates that shouldn't be pushed to production environments, but I also see a lot more of that with other organizations...Just my two cents, man. ----------------------- Rad Web Hosting - Dallas, TX | Phoenix, AZ KVM VPS - Dedicated Servers - Colocation |

You have to push updates man, do you see what’s going on out there. Equifax got hacked yesterday…
You are right Softaculous is pretty stable, I am just saying that a few modification or additional options for advanced users would make it great. I’m not worried about backups either, I use Acronis Enterprise and I do a full drive image daily, which helped me restore when this happened. But still, I had to hear so much crap from Accounting when they had to redo 4 hours worth of work in Quickbooks after they were restored. I think users should be more aware and research their application setup procedure before they do the 1 click install from webuzo. But webuzo in itself is very secure, last vulnerability reported was 2013 v2.1.3, that’s very hard to beat compared to others. https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/31982/ |
