Hello,
I just noticed that the recommended PHP version is v8.2 while it runs with PHP v8.1 currently. How to change this? See https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/stable/admin_manual/installation/system_requirements.html#server .
Best Regards,

@warg the PHP is part of the package and cannot be changed. I think using 8.1 vs 8.2 is mostly cosmetic. 8.1 will be supported till november .

Couldn't the package be updated to use 8.2?

@jdaviescoates yes, it can be. FWIW, Ubuntu 22.04 comes with PHP 8.1 by default (which is also the recommended installation OS). I think it's quite unlikely nextcloud will break support for the default PHP ...

Sounds good to me. It looks like they ship PHP 8.1 with their own docker while they recommend PHP 8.2. That's a bit weird.

So both for security reasons and support reasons it's recommended to have at least v8.2. -
@guyds yup, we are moving the base image to latest ubuntu (noble). This will bring us PHP 8.3 by default.
