Just thought I would provide an update. After upgrading my Raspbian distribution from 9(stretch) to 10 (Buster) and re-installing docker, I was able to successfully get Citadel working via the Docker installation method.

However, the "easyinstall" method still gives the same undefined reference errors that it was before. 

Looks like the "easyinstall" method is deprecated....

Hi

ive installed citadel on a fresh ubuntu 22.04 machine

Hi

I found probably unreported vulnerability on citadel and am looking for a contact I can send the detail to.

It would be great to know the support's email address or other contact information.

Thanks

I reported to the Information Security Early Warning Partnership of Japan (because it's my country) about the vulnerability's detail, so messages may be sent from JPCERT for coordination and investigation.

If direct information about this vulnerability is needed from me, who found the vulnerability, please tell me where to send message.

Thanks

Just an FYI sort of thing of something amiss, but not a critical bug, just odd.

I hit one of the rooms ( Religion ) was rendering the page, stopped with a message "error:" between the names ( see screenshot below ) for a moment then finished rendering. Tried it another time to get a screenshot in action but it was too fast for me. 3rd attempt it rendered to the bottom of the page ok  but i could scroll back up to get the error.

I'm having easy install issues too. Literally a week ago it worked perfectly on my RPi with stretch. I've not changed the OS but now I get lots of...

Customer reported an issue with  MS OL2013 where they selected several emails from inbos and pasted them into another folder under the MS OL Inbox then changed to that folder and the emails disappeared. Then also, the email is not found anywhere.

has anyone experienced this rather bizarre occurence and where does The email go?

I am also curious how one could get a list of emails as admin slated for auto purge and if possible to reset some for restore to user access. 

Hello, i'm trying to get Citadel running on my Pi and tried various methods (each from a clean install of Raspian) and get the same error each time.

(full dump here: https://pastebin.com/1LcdxxKw)

Can anyone offer a suggestion to what i'm doing wrong or is Bullseye not yet supported? I've heard from others that it worked on Debian Buster but i'd rather stick with Bullseye if possible.

i'm using citadel now for several months. and i'like it. but, the most bad problem is. the server is runing some time, later crash always the db. i'dont know why.

today i'will try a upgrade to the new version, and i'hope this worst case will gone.

i'm happy, for taht i'do every night a full backup, so if this happen i'can restore the last backup. but it is only a workaround.

target system, current update and upgraded debian bullseye

older version of citadel was runing

might be a silly question but have to spare systems

1) and old Raspberry PI i believe the 1GB model 

2) have a small intel i7 desktop 4"x4"x2" block i think it has 16GB ram and SSD drive not sure how big haven't used both in a while.

I want to install on Debian Linux on the PI preferred

The system is going to operating mainly on x.25 over ham radio on a public IP with ssh / telnet (BBS)  about 1200 baud. 

thanks for your Feedback. Citadel runs here in a proxmox server as container. container in a container ... there a also hardenig this mashine to prevent hacking and other bad stuff. the upgrade runs fine, stop only at this point ...

better to fix this ...

mut_pthread.c:(.text+0xc5): undefined reference to `pthread_mutexattr_init'

Something might be wonky with the latest Debian. I haven't tried it yet, but it looks like we have to get on that.

In the mean time, you might want to try the containerized distribution of Citadel using Docker. It's already built for you.

Hi,

Hoping someone can help and that I am posting to the correct place.

I am attempting to install Citadel on a Raspberry Pi 4 running Rasperian (Debian) Version 10 aka "Buster"

I am executing the citadel install script "curl http://easyinstall.citadel.org/install | sudo bash"

when I get the error "undefined reference to symbol 'pthread_rwlock_trywrlock@@GLIBC_2.4'"

Would appreciate any help on this.

Thanks
