Open Server Panel 6.2.1

[OSPanel]

What's New

• GUI: Graphical settings interface with built-in help and a convenient log viewer.
• Languages: Vietnamese, Spanish, Italian, German.
• New modules: Mailpit, MariaDB-11.4, MariaDB-11.7, MongoDB-8.0, MySQL-8.4, PHP-8.4, PostgreSQL-17, RabbitMQ-4.0, Redis-7.4, Smtp4dev.
• Third-party configuration files check: The program now checks for the presence of my.cnf and my.ini files on drive C:, helping to avoid conflicts with standard installed software.
• Ability to specify HTTP and HTTPS ports for projects: You can now flexibly configure ports for web projects, ensuring optimal configuration and security.
• short_project_title option: When enabled, only the project name will be displayed in the console instead of the detailed window (tab) title.
• use_system_environment option: Ability to forcibly include the system environment in all projects' environments.
• additional_ssl_hosts option (for modules): Allows specifying IP addresses and domains to be added to the automatically generated SSL certificate.
• ignore_shutdown_all option (for modules): When enabled, the module won't be shut down by the command to shut down all modules.
• Project selector: When entering the osp project command without specifying a project name, you can select the desired project from the general list by entering its number. When entering the osp project auto command, if you're already in the project directory, the project will be activated automatically. If the current directory is assigned to multiple projects, the first project in the list will be activated.
• Menu icon themes: Additional styling options for menu icons to improve the visual design of the interface.
• Menu font size customization: Users with visual impairments can customize the font size in the interface menu if using Windows system scaling is inconvenient or inapplicable for various reasons (e.g., conflicts with other applications or personal preferences).
• System menu rendering support: This option enables system menu rendering for compatibility with screen reader programs, ensuring accessibility for visually impaired users.
• Project archive: A special section for inactive projects (enabled = off). You can manage project status from the menu: deactivate (archive) or activate (restore from archive).
• Project categories: A project categorization system in the program menu. The category is specified in the project configuration file. A special hidden category is available for service resources - projects in this category are not displayed in the main menu. This is convenient for administrative tools like phpMyAdmin.

Changes

• Automatic IP address assignment: For modules using local IP addresses in the format 127.127.126.XXX, automatic configuration is now used. This simplifies creation and distribution of new modules for users interested in their integration. If necessary, the IP address can be manually specified in the module parameters.
• Return of the Ioncube PHP extension: Ioncube support is available again, but be careful when changing default settings as this may cause failures when launching child PHP processes through the scheduler or manually.
• Separate proxy settings block for Composer: Proxy settings for Composer are now in a separate block, simplifying their configuration and management.
• Separation of some PHP add-ons: Blackfire, FFMpeg, Ghostscript, and ImageMagick are now separate add-ons. This optimizes disk space usage and allows installing only necessary components.
• HTTP header optimization in Apache and Nginx: Popular HTTP headers are disabled by default and collected in a single block, preventing header duplication and failures in some CMS.
• PHP-CGI subprocess self-management: FCGI versions of PHP modules now manage their subprocesses independently, without using php-cgi-spawner.exe, improving performance and stability.
• FCGI PHP module dependency on regular PHP modules: FCGI versions of PHP modules now use regular PHP version files, significantly saving disk space. The template variable {parent_module} has been added for use in FCGI module configuration templates.
• Project icon highlighting in the menu: Project icons are now highlighted depending on status, similar to modules, improving visual perception and navigation convenience.
• Simplified menu navigation: Current profile names for modules and assigned module names for projects are now displayed directly in the module or project menu.
• Increased stack size in Apache and PHP 8: Default stack size increased to 8 MB, allowing processing of more complex requests and scripts.
• ThreadsPerChild parameter optimization: ThreadsPerChild value reduced to 32, decreasing memory consumption after increasing ThreadStackSize.
• Increased xdebug.max_nesting_level in PHP 7.x: The xdebug.max_nesting_level parameter increased to 512, allowing deeper nested calls without errors.
• Removal of built-in SMTP server: The built-in SMTP server has been removed due to integration of Mailpit and Smtp4dev modules, which provide similar functionality with enhanced capabilities and improved flexibility for email handling.
• Change in domain alias processing logic: Aliases specified as IP addresses are no longer treated as IP addresses of domains managed by the web server.
• New domain alias processing: Domain aliases without a dot in the name are no longer supplemented with the project host name and are treated as full domain names.
• Critical SysPrepTool operations: All critical operations performed by SysPrepTool are now hidden and cannot be disabled.

Fixes

• Shell launch issues for MariaDB and MongoDB modules: Fixed Shell launch for correct operation with these modules.
• Removal of outdated MySQL-5.5 and MongoDB 3.0-3.2 modules: Outdated module versions removed due to unstable operation, increasing overall system reliability.
• mod_watch and SNMP configuration adjustment: Improved configurations for mod_watch (Apache) and SNMP (PHP) to avoid service directories appearing on the system disk.
• "Request-URI Too Long" error fix: Adjusted Apache and Nginx settings to prevent this error.
• Project launch command fix: The command "osp project <DOMAIN> start" now works correctly.
• Tray icon color correction: Fixed the red shade of the program's tray icon for clearer perception.
• Task scheduler fix: The task scheduler now correctly interprets standard plan settings.
• Interface scaling support: Fixed menu display on systems with interface scaling enabled, such as 4K monitors.
• Disk root launch fix: Program launch is now possible directly from the disk root.
• Console command improvements: Fixed certain console commands and interaction with console environments.
• IDN converter correction: Fixed the IDN converter, ensuring correct conversion of domains containing hyphens.
