Update Rollup 4 for Windows Azure Pack Web Sites Version 2

Windows Azure Pack Web Sites Version 2

This update rollup fixes the following issues:

• The combination of classic mode and Active Directory integration does not work. This update resolves this issue for Azure Pack Web Sites, but the issue is still present for Internet Integration Services (IIS). The problem stems from running IIS on a file server that uses Active Directory integration.

• There was a pre-existing capability to change the DNS suffix. However that capability did not work correctly. This is fixed so that the DNS suffix for an Azure Pack Web Sites cloud can be changed by using the following PowerShell command:
  
  

  Set-WebSitesConfig Global -DnsSuffix
  

• Because of a bug in the repair logic, it was possible to put the management role into a state in which it continuously repaired and would not stabilize.

• There was an issue with the PHP 5.5 support that was added in version 2 update 3. This issue is fixed, and PHP 5.5 is enabled correctly with this update.

• Repair worker was not working after an upgrade on newly added workers. This issue is fixed in this update.

• The vdir/vapp feature was not exposed in the on-premises portal but was available through the API. The portal update that is available with this update rollup release resolves this issue.
