      Anyone know how to add a patch from Redmine? The post states to but I've never done it before and it isn't explained.

      @stephenw10 are you aware?

        Install the System_Patches package.
        There you can enter the patch ID or URL.

          @viragomann Thanks, that doesn't work unfortunately, the "Apply" button never appears.

            After entering the ID c5faa351c1ef6d4555478a7f50b3a16ece7e0b2a and a description, I can save it.
            Then I get a fetch button.

            This doesn't work on your installation?

              @viragomann Yes I get a fetch button but no Apply button, and the patch isn't applied when I verify the file itself. Is this normal behaviour?

                @viragomann OK doesn't seem like normal behaviour. If I debug I get the following:

                Patch does not apply cleanly (detail)
                Patch does not revert cleanly (detail)

                Patching file usr/local/bin/notify_monitor.php using Plan A...
                Hunk #1 failed at 20.
                1 out of 1 hunks failed while patching usr/local/bin/notify_monitor.php

                  Yes, I get the same.
                  Obviously the patch is now for 2.7.

                    @viragomann Thanks.

                    Who needs reliability in production anyway! Guess I will wait for 2.7 to resolve this if the patch isn't even available any more.

                        Ah, it's because it's a patch against 23.01. It's in the recommended patch list there.

                        It's in 23.05 and 2.7-beta so you can upgrade to either of those now. Otherwise 2.7 is not far off.

                          @stephenw10 Thanks for that, appreciate your time.

                          I assume I can also achieve something of the same effect by simply disabling the NUT notifications?

                          When is 2.7 due?

                            Simply reducing the notifications will certainly help.

                            2.7 is in Beta and it's looking good. So unless something show stopping is found I would anticipate 'weeks'. Hard to be more accurate than that.
