Thank you for choosing i-MSCP.

Re ;

For those which are using the Monitorix plugin, don't forget to disable it before any update. Monitorix listen on port 8080. This create a conflict with Nginx that listen also on this port. In such a case, you can set the monitorix port to 8081 by editing the /etc/monitorix.conf file and restarting it: service monitorix restart. This issue will be fixed in next Monitorix plugin version.
