Aegir 0.4 alpha 6 released

Another great update! Especially #710652 and #701792 are very useful to us.

Always forget to change permissions on our test-server when upgrading, maybe reminder is useful for others as well:

On the server Aegir apache document root lives outside of aegir home (/var/aegir), in a root owned /ebs1/sites.
It is of course necessary of /ebs1/sites to be writable to aegir.
In our case I have to temporary set it to 777.
Then "chown aegir.aegir /ebs1/sites/hostmaster_04_a5"
Now run hostmaster-migrate in /ebs1/sites/hostmaster_04_a5:

drush hostmaster-migrate aegir.site.com /ebs1/sites/hostmaster_04_a6 --uri=aegir.site.com

Permissions back to previous settings to re-enable SFTP, /ebs1/sites to 755 and "chown root.root /ebs1/sites/hostmaster_04_a6".

Now Aegir is running beautifully in all its 04_06 glory. Thanks!

Minor note: Didn't the previous versions of install.txt mention the necessity of enabling mod_rewrite? Can't find it in the current write-up, but apache2 restart fails without it and it presumably messes up clean urls further down the line. A quick note to a2enmod rewrite should do it.

Anyhoo, good work!

that you are instructed to include.

Does /var/aegir/config/apache.conf exist?

It sounds like that file /var/aegir/config/apache.conf hasn't been created for some reason. I would retry the install.sh and see if it gives an error along the way.

Followed the Upgrade.txt and can not get the migration from alpha5 to alpha6 to complete. I have restored the server and tried this 3 times

Symptons:
- Crontab gets wiped out and is left blank
- Says the database is created but there is no evidence it ever gets created (watching in phpmyadmin while command is running)
- No aegir.bigcouchmedia.com directory is created in /var/aegir/platforms/hostmaster-0.4-alpha6/sites/
- Output says it is altering tables but they don't exist
- Here is the output of EXPORT

mig5, thanks for the feedback, thought I was going crazy. If I pre-populate the new hostmaster root directory with a copy of 6.15 and they re-run the hostmaster-migrate command do you think it would work?
