@scottalanmiller
I have not had this issue but I only have 45 machines and they are all Windows 10.Edit - Forgot the two windows 2016 servers with no issues.

Does MeshCentral automatically update now? I snafu'd my system and built it when it was 0.44a... It now is showing 0.44-s.
I'm not complaining, lol. Just something I noticed.
If you set it to, it will. It's done that for a long time now.
lol. Guess I better go dig into my config file, lol.

That might only be like 3 days worth of updates, sometimes they do a crazy number of releases in a short time...

Yeah. It's not the number of updates that surprised me. It's the fact that it updated on its own. I just checked my config file and the SelfUpdate is on, so nothing broken, system working as designed.

I really need to get in the habit of checking every day...
Me too, ha ha.

Or set it to update automatically.

I would also set up AutoBackup too.

About five releases have come out today. Just went to 0.4.4-z
-
On to the 0.4.5-a range now!
-
updating now
-
FYI. Just published MeshCentral v0.4.5-b, this is a super-update because it includes the next generation MeshAgent. You can check Twitter for updates, but this version includes a new remote desktop privacy bar, wallpaper toggling, improved Windows terminal and more.
-
@Ylian Another trick in MeshCentral v0.4.5-b is that the MeshAgent should be able to be installed within a Docker container. We will start testing that a bit more. Should be useful to manage what is going on inside server containers remotely.
-
When was this available? I have MeshCentral set to auto updates so I don't know when this options was available.
-
Just updated to it here.
-
@black3dynamite I posted about an hour after I published MeshCentral v0.4.5-b. If you are set to auto-update, your server will generally check between midnight and 1am for any updates. So, 24 hours after I publish a new version, you should have it.
-
0.4.5-c is out, but I don't see notes in Twitter as to what is new in it.
-
@scottalanmiller The best way to see the smaller changes between releases is to look at GitHub commit log. MeshCentral v0.4.5-c has a first pass at a Czech translation, a bit better French translation, Internalization improvements, support for "MpsAliasHost" in settings section of config.json.
I just post on Twitter major changes. The quick releases are to fix issues on GitHub or respond to specific requests.
-
@Ylian 0.4.5-e and searching is no longer working, at least not reliably. Very odd. Not ready to file a bug report because I can't figure out how to reproduce it yet.
-
How do you go about updating the Agents already installed? How are people handling this?
-
@scottalanmiller Published MeshCentral v0.4.5-f that should fix a problem with the web application.
@hobbit666 When you update the server, all agents are automatically updated.
