Installation, Migration & Upgrade / cannot update to joomla 5.3.1 ...
Last post by Renata - May 29, 2025, 17:47:56 PMDear all,
It is impossible to update joomla 5.2.5 to Joomla 5.3.1 as after pre-update check by Joomla i get the warning:
Update required
Update these extensions before Joomla is updated. VirtueMart Package
I am not a member, sorry.
Will there be a free version which is compatible with Joomla 5.3.1?
Thanks in advance
Kind regards
Renata

Last post by WebStuff - May 29, 2025, 17:18:03 PMHappening to me on 3 Systems. Wondered if they are now called something else or the update files haven't been updated in the installer and the updater has got confused.

https://www.lexo.ch/blog/2024/11/solved-spf-setting-does-not-apply-to-return-path-causing-more-spam-and-phishing-e-mails-spamassassin-postfix/
Also figured out that SpamAssassin rules like FORGED_REPLYTO and FROM_DIFFERENT_DOMAINS can add several points to the spam score.
On some mail servers (like ours), outgoing emails are spam-filtered too, not just incoming. As far as I know this is a common practice on stricter setups. In such cases, if the Reply-To address is an external domain (e.g. gmail.com) while the From is a local domain (e.g. shop@mydomain.com), the server may flag or reject the message as spam before it's even sent.
This happens because:
SpamAssassin increases the spam score when Reply-To differs from From or the envelope sender.
SPF and DMARC alignment checks can be stricter depending on how the MTA interprets the headers.
By default, VirtueMart sets the customer email address as Reply-To in vendor confirmation emails. While that may be acceptable in many cases, it breaks deliverability in stricter environments.
It would be great to have a configuration option (even hidden) to disable the Reply-To header entirely, so that only the From address is used.
Thanks a lot for considering!

Last post by iWim - May 29, 2025, 09:40:42 AMAlso I recomend doing the update locally first.
Then you'll know what to expect and you can safely check if everything works as expected (Don't forget your template!)
If something needs extra work or something goes wrong, your live website is not affected.
Install WAMPServer or MAMP on your computer.
Create a backup of your webshop (Akeeba Backup)
Unpack/install your backup in WAMP/MAMP (Akeeba Kickstart)

Last post by Ghost - May 29, 2025, 08:47:10 AMUpdate VM first, then Joomla. VM4 supports J3 but VM3 does not support J4. If you really have no 3rd party extensions, upgrade should be easy. But always make a backup anyways. Template will probably need updating/changing too.
