APS installer patch for ISPConfig 3.0.5.4p5 available

This post is from 2015. Versions, commands and links in it may be outdated. The current release is ISPConfig 3.3.2p1.

We received reports that the APS installer currently fails to update the package list. Our investigation showed that the issue is caused by a malformed XML document that the installer receives from apscatalog.com. The error message that is logged in the ISPConfig system log is "APS crawler: String could not be parsed as XML".

The patch below improves the APS update script to skip malformed files instead of stopping the whole download process.

Patch ID: 3054_aps
Date: 2015-03-27
