I got error messages when attempting to upgrade iRedAdmin:

I had to run

pip install python-multipart

...and then re-run the

 sudo bash upgrade_iredadmin.sh 

command again, and then the output did not indicate errors.  Just in case someone else runs into the same thing.

Successful output:

sudo apt install python3-python-multipart should have done the trick.
Running pip install is a bad thing to do on a Debian based system.

I changed the contents of my /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sogo-nightly.list to

deb https:packagingv2.sogo.nu/sogo-nightly-debian/ trixie main

After that I did an apt full-upgrade

This command installs the new sogo packages for debian 13.

I am running nginx as webserver and sogo did not work as expected after the upgrade. I found out that the sogo templates in /etc/nginx/templates pointed to the wrong directories.

In sogo.tmpl I commented out the old config and added the new config:

#location /SOGo.woa/WebServerResources/ {
#    alias /usr/lib/GNUstep/SOGo/WebServerResources/;
#    expires max;
#}
#location /SOGo/WebServerResources/ {
#    alias /usr/lib/GNUstep/SOGo/WebServerResources/;
#    expires max;
#}
#location ^/SOGo/so/ControlPanel/Products/([^/]*)/Resources/(.*)$ {
#    alias /usr/lib/GNUstep/SOGo/$1.SOGo/Resources/$2;
#    expires max;
#}

location /SOGo.woa/WebServerResources/ {
    alias /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/GNUstep/SOGo/WebServerResources/;
    expires max;
}
location /SOGo/WebServerResources/ {
    alias /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/GNUstep/SOGo/WebServerResources/;
    expires max;
}
location ^/SOGo/so/ControlPanel/Products/([^/]*)/Resources/(.*)$ {
    alias /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/GNUstep/SOGo/$1.SOGo/Resources/$2;
    expires max;
}

I also updated the sogo-subdomain.tmpl:

#location /SOGo.woa/WebServerResources/ {
#    alias /usr/lib/GNUstep/SOGo/WebServerResources/;
#    expires max;
#}
#location /SOGo/WebServerResources/ {
#    alias /usr/lib/GNUstep/SOGo/WebServerResources/;
#    expires max;
#}
#location ^/SOGo/so/ControlPanel/Products/([^/]*)/Resources/(.*)$ {
#    alias /usr/lib/GNUstep/SOGo/$1.SOGo/Resources/$2;
#    expires max;
#}
#location (^/SOGo/so/ControlPanel/Products/[^/]*UI/Resources/.*\.(jpg|png|gif|css|js)$) {
#    alias /usr/lib/GNUstep/SOGo/$1.SOGo/Resources/$2;
#    expires max;
#}

location /SOGo.woa/WebServerResources/ {
    alias /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/GNUstep/SOGo/WebServerResources/;
    expires max;
}
location /SOGo/WebServerResources/ {
    alias /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/GNUstep/SOGo/WebServerResources/;
    expires max;
}
location ^/SOGo/so/ControlPanel/Products/([^/]*)/Resources/(.*)$ {
    alias /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/GNUstep/SOGo/$1.SOGo/Resources/$2;
    expires max;
}
location (^/SOGo/so/ControlPanel/Products/[^/]*UI/Resources/.*\.(jpg|png|gif|css|js)$) {
    alias /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/GNUstep/SOGo/$1.SOGo/Resources/$2;
    expires max;
}

Restarted nginx and Sogo is now working om Debian 13!

1.8.0 (APR, 2026)

Fixed. Thanks for the feedback.

There is a typo in the website Download:

STABLE
1.8.0 (APR, 2025)

should be:

STABLE
1.8.0 (APR, 2026)

Thank you!

May be it's worth to include IRedAdmin Update in Upgrade notes too.

Fixed. Thanks for the feedback.

May be it's worth to include IRedAdmin Update in Upgrade notes too.

And on debian 12, upgrading iRedAdmin to 2.8 gets done with an error.
It requires the python3-more-itertools to be installed

Fixed. Thanks for the feedabck.

Customers who downloaded iRedAdmin-Pro package later than this forum post should not have this issue anymore.

The link for Debian 13 is wrong, https://docs.iredmail.org/upgrade.debian.11-12.html
It should be this one : https://docs.iredmail.org/upgrade.debian.12-13.html

fixed. Thanks for the feedback.
