vtigerCRM-5.0.3 release next week
May 25th, 2007 by Richie
vtigerCRM-5.0.3 is scheduled for release next week.
I am satisfied with the quality of the product now and hope that you too share the feeling.
We are working tomorrow and hope to have a few more tests run on the build. Those interested can join the fun and file bugs in the trac.
Barring any showstoppers, the release is set for the coming week.




Is the build posted somewhere we can grab to test in our environments?
Are you prepared for the volume of downloads?
Get ready for a huge spike as I feel there are many like us waiting on this update.
It’s about time!
When/where are the release notes going to be posted?
I am happy to read that vTiger is still alive.
Keep up the good work!
Will the new version come with a fix on the problems related to IMAP servers and TLS connections?

Hi Kåre,
Yes, we have tested IMAP server throughly in our labs. If possible, kindly test in your setup and let us know your feedback.
You can checkout the latest source from our repository (rev 11042).
Guys,
I hope you finally fixed the mail issues in 5.03.
Keep up the open source and good work guys & galls.
I’ll b testing………
I am using SUSE10.2 and the latest LAMPP installation. VT503 does not work with this combination. In the forum, the answer was that I should reinstall my SUSE to an older release.
That is not really the answer to me because I need the 10.2 release for other reasons.
My question: will the PHP5 issue be sorted out before the final release?

I would love to install that release.

Two thumbs up! Bring it on…
Hi Klaus,
Thanks for your trust on us.
Post v5.0.3 release, we will start working on supporting PHP 5.2.x. Kindly bear with us in the meantime.
We are looking for PHP gurus help in updating the PHP 5.2 related Wiki document.

Thanks,

The new code has a problem with Contacts to Potentials relation. When you create a potential it cannot be seen when looking it while in the contact. It can be seen when you are in potentials and looking at the related contacts.
Also when you send an email with a image in the email body using a url link the image does not get sent to all of the selected contacts. Only the copy to the sender is correct.
I am also having a problem with downloading attachments.
System = IE7 and Suse 10.1
Excellent. VTiger is the best crm on the market today from my point of view. Where can I find the new features in this new release?
The IMAP TLS is still not fixed as of rev 11073.
Please read the reply to the bug thread in the form.

This is extremely good news! We are waiting eagerly…
Where can I see if the Outlook Synch issues are solved? This would be a killer for us if still not working properly.
Keep going!
Hi Norbert,
We have fixed most of the Outlook synch related issues. For more information Click Here
Hi Theo,
Thanks for your kind words.
v5.0.3 is basically addresses most of the issues reported by our community (1100+) over a period of 7 months. In this release we are mainly focusing on stability & UI enhancements. For more information Click Here
Hi Warren Davis,
I have tried to reproduce these issues in our labs (IE7). However, I am unable to reproduce. If your time permits, please drop me a mail at gopals at vtiger dot com, so that our team will set up web conference and look into the issues.
Hi William,
I am looking forward for our community help in testing vtiger with IMAP TLS (various other combinations). Please let me know, if you would be interested in participating in testing, so that our Webmail developer will arrange web conference and look into the issues in TLS implementation.
Almost mid week now! Are you going to get the release out this week as promised?
Gopal,
I attached a patch for the IMAP TLS problem that we observed to the forum topic:
http://forums.vtiger.com/viewtopic.php?p=47544#47544
(see last entry, it didn’t like a .patch file).
I will be happy to test again when the changes get integrated with the Webmail code.
I have space on my dreamhost acct
- if a mirror is needed!!

OK, so now we are on thursday… PLEASE… is there any news on whether this is still on track for this week? We know that you are working hard, but so far there has been a post to say it’ll definitely be this week, and then we have heard nothing really since then…
Hi,
I heard it is still on track to be released during this week, a proof could be that 5.0.3 forum appeared on the board a couple of hours ago.
Keep faith,
Clem
Dear Team,
vtiger 5.0.3 will be officially announced in another few hours. Please stay tuned with us.
Thanks,
Gopal
