What's coming in 7.6

@necrevistonnezr meemo, rocketchat, ackee, wekan & nodebb need mongodb. But the way it's implemented you cannot update beyond 7.5.x . It will just error saying AVX support is needed.

Update MongoDB to 5.0. Important: this release requires AVX support in CPU
I asked Netcup if they could add AVX support to their VPS offering, but they said:
Sorry, but we can't add the AVX Flag to our VPS, because of the nested virtualization.
But our Root Servers have avx and avx2 available.
I was going to add to to the initial thread about AVX support but for some reason that has been locked (which I've just discovered also means you can't easily quote any of the posts in it. Odd).
So I guess it's bye bye affordable (and powered by renewable energy) Netcup VPS servers then. Oh well.

@jdaviescoates I have unlocked the avx thread. Would be good to know how many get affected by requiring AVX .

I guess there's no easy way to update MongoDB only if needed?
-
@necrevistonnezr yeah, that's not possible (well, not trivially) since we only maintain one db version and the app manifest has a
minBoxVersion
,maxBoxVersion
etc which implicitly maps to the db version. For example, an app relying on mongodb 5 would putminBoxVersion
as7.6.0
in manifest. -
@girish i have 2 servers both running in a vsphere in r930s one is ubuntu 22.04 and another on ubuntu 20.04
Ubuntu 20.04 upgraded to 7.6
Ubuntu 22.04 refusing to update due to avx -
@sufian-mughal you should upgrade the VMware virtual machine version (vm), as too old of a template can be prior to the avx support for that vm, even though the CPUs support it.
So check the underlying virtual hardware rev.

Yes after upgrade vmware on linux it worked thank you

After almost three weeks after “beta release”: when will the rollout begin and will it be marked as stable?
-
@imc67 7.6.1 will be out later this week, but still won't be stable till end of this month. There's a whole bunch of Cloudrons stuck on ubuntu 18 and we are having to help customers upgrade. We don't want to leave them too behind, so 7.6 cannot be stable too soon.

To give an update here, we had to update all apps to the new base image 4.2.0 . Practically all apps are updated by now. We can now start rolling out 7.6 . Probably from thursday.
This was 22 days ago, still not started I guess?
