ISPConfig 3.3.1 Beta 1 Released – Debian 13 Support in ISPConfig

This version brings Debian 13 support with Dovecot 2.4 compatibility, RHEL 10 based distribution support (AlmaLinux 10, RockyLinux 10), PHP 8.5 compatibility, pgAdmin for PostgreSQL databases, improved DNS validation, and many bugfixes.

When will the ISPConfig 3.3.1 final version be available?

The release of the final version is planned for January 2026.

How to install new Debian 13 servers using the ISPConfig 3.3.1 Beta?

The ISPConfig 3 Auto-Installer now also runs on Debian 13. It automatically switches to installing the ISPConfig development branch until ISPConfig 3.3.1 final is released. Systems that were installed with a development version or the current beta version can be updated to the stable branch later using the ispconfig_update.sh command.

What’s new in ISPConfig 3.3.1 Beta 1?

Debian 13 Support

ISPConfig 3.3.1 adds full support for Debian 13 (Trixie), including compatibility with Dovecot 2.4 which introduces an incompatible configuration language. The Dovecot configuration templates have been updated to work with the new 2.4 syntax.

RHEL 10 Based Distribution Support

Support has been added for RHEL 10 based distributions including AlmaLinux 10 and RockyLinux 10.

PHP 8.5 Compatibility

ISPConfig is now compatible with PHP 8.5. This includes fixes for deprecated functions like `mysqli_ping()` and non-canonical casts.

pgAdmin for PostgreSQL Databases

A pgAdmin link has been added for PostgreSQL databases, similar to how phpMyAdmin works for MySQL/MariaDB databases. The phpMyAdmin link is now correctly hidden for PostgreSQL databases.

DNS Record Validation Improvements

Improved validation for DNS records including better CNAME conflict detection, SRV record field validation, and DMARC record handling.

Rspamd Greylisting Fixes

Fixed issues where rspamd greylisting settings from spamfilter policies were not being applied correctly to domain-level spam filter entries and user configurations.

Let’s Encrypt Improvements

  • Removed OCSP stapling sections from vhosts as Let’s Encrypt no longer supports OCSP
  • Fixed default CA setting when acme.sh is installed from the Let’s Encrypt class

Extended CLI Resync Functionality

The Tools > Resync function has been extended in the ispc CLI command, allowing more flexible server synchronization from the command line.

Improved Autoinstall Updates

Improved updating with autoinstall.conf.php including better documentation and the ability to pass –autoinstall option from ispconfig_update.sh and ispc update to update.php.

Improved website logfile permissions

Website logfiles are now created with stricter permissions (640) and ownership (root:clientX).
