varnish upgrade to v5

[cmdman]

hi

how can i upgrade varnish to v5

 as recent 2017-08-02 - Security Advisory: Denial of Service All varnish versions from 4.0.1 are vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack, please see VSV00001 DoS vulnerability
so its better to upgrade to Varnish Cache 5.1.3

[MRatWork]

Try open /etc/yum.repos.d/mratwork.repo and change 'baseurl=http://repo.varnish-cache.org/redhat/varnish-3.0/el$releasever/$basearch' to 'baseurl=https://packagecloud.io/varnishcache/varnish51/el/$releasever/$basearch'

[cmdman]

Redirecting to /bin/systemctl restart  varnish.service
Job for varnish.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status varnish.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.


iam getting this error when i use nginx with varnish and even after upgrade to Varnish Cache 5.1.3

[MRatWork]

I am not testing for this version. Maybe need modified their config files.

Inform here 'systemctl status varnish.service -l'

[cmdman]

[root@server ~]# systemctl status varnish.service -l

this is not upgrade i installed new server by default its installed 5.13 with kloxo 7

[MRatWork]

Kloxo-MR will modified varnish configs but based on older version (aka version 3.x).

[cmdman]

lo please understand its fresh server with fresh kloxo 7 installed i enabled nginxproxy with varnish by default varnish installed 5.13 not 3 or 4 version i didnt changed any repo.

[MRatWork]

Latest mratwork repo change varnish 3.x to 5.1.

[cmdman]

i know its changed but its not working with any webserver apacehe or nginx others too you need to change some config files i think

[MRatWork]

Try rename '/etc/varnish/default.vcl.rpmnew' to 'default.vcl'

[cmdman]

now its started with basic config..

[cmdman]

looks varnish is not caching site
