3CX V18 Update 1 Now Available on Windows

[rfcomms]

I have two v18 systems running in 3CX hosted cloud, both were updated to 18.0 Update 1 (Build 234) this week. Under Email-Notifications, one system has had the newer v18 alert option "Notify when Scheduled backups are created successfully" completely removed from the list of available alert options; we had that setting enabled prior to the update and we stopped receiving the successful backup alerts for that system the same day SP1 was installed. This system with the enabled feature removed was born and created native in the 3CX cloud, if that matters.

The second system still has this alert option available after the SP1 update was applied, however it was not previously enabled or used. This system had been migrated into 3CX cloud from an on-prem deployment a long while back, if that matters.

This seems to indicate some inconsistent SP1 update behavior and it is a problem for me because I utilize the successful backup notification on most of our systems.

Wondering how to get the feature back on the first system described above, and wondering how this problem will translate to non-3cx-hosted debian and windows deployments.

Likewise, identical problem, as need to know when they work as well as not.

@vvoiceI can understand what you are saying but I must say that this is a little bit impossible to happen for SP1 as this email had already stopped way before SP1.

I noticed that after all the PBx upgraded V18, for some reason, the existing v16 scheduled backup job is lost and the backup function is still disabled.

I don't understand why we lose the scheduled backup when the V16 restore is performed during reinstallation, is it a 3CX design or a simple oversight?

scheduled backup are turned off after reistall 3CX serwer with new 18 version, i just turned it on back .. All old backups from v16 accessable from managment console ( i can see all backups in list ).

For all those with a Windows Server installation. How is your nginx config looking like for SSL?
It looks like I'm the only one with problems.

If you install new, then restore a backup, the Scheduled Backup options are not set because they are not included in the backup.

If you had e.g. V18 U0, the upgraded to V18 U1, then if you had the option enabled, it would remain enabled.

Perhaps I am wrong, but I can't see a valuable reason to lose the scheduled task, when restored , PBX is able to access old location alone with previous settings, so why this setting is ready to go on previous location and not the backup task And backup is DISABLED in console after the first V18 start.
I stay more persuaded this is a miss or a bug in restore process

I will put this more clearly, check the Academy page for Backup and Restore:
https://www.3cx.com/3cxacademy/videos/intermediate/backup-restore/

The "Scheduled Backup" check box is "Host Data".

The "Scheduled Backup" check box is "Host Data".

Not very smart in my opinion , I'd prefer to retrieve complete settings including backup task and feature enabled by default, almost when you choose to restore a pbx file

Losing TAPI fuctions from v16 to v18 doesn't seem right..
Does this mean our clients that work with a TAPI will never be able to move to v18?

You can still continue to use the old/legacy Windows App for the TAPI functionality. We are not planning to deprecate it very soon, so it should be around for quite some time yet.

Note however that new features will probably not be coming to the old Windows App.

Sorry for the confusion, yes, we have also tested the WH63, WH66 and WH67.

Hello,

Did you tried without the USB pluged but only the WH66 base BT paired with the PC/Notebook using 3CX app or Webclient ?
I've tried and the headset is fully functionnal in the app, but in the integration menu, it is not working "No device is connected".

The USB connexion seems mandatory.
But, this is maybe a "work as intended"..

Yes, this is correct.
