    Please some advice!!

    I have been out for work since June this year and disabled automatic updates just in case.

    Now finally back again at my Cloudron instance and ready to catch up with things, like updating my Cloudron version.

    I noticed that when i want to upgrade, it wants to upgrade to an unstable version (See attachment)

    not considered stable yet.jpg

    My question...... Is it safe to update from this point? And will it finally catch up to the latest version?

      Seems odd that it's still saying that pre-release message given we're now on Cloudron 7.6!

      You'll be able to catch up so long as you're running a new enough version of Ubuntu. If you're still on 18.04 you'll need to ugrade or move to another server which already has a new version.

      But I'd guess it's almost certainly safe to update to 7.4.1!

      I use Cloudron with Gandi & Hetzner

        Thanks for thinking with me 😉
        I also thought it would be no problem, just want to be on the safe side.
        at least im on Ubuntu 20.04, so that should be good...

        maybe I'll wait a little longer until someone from the Cloudron team can give me a definitive answer to this?
        Don't wanna revert to a backup, when it's not neccesary....

          I think you'll be totally fine. But fair enough. Better safe than sorry 🙂

            It is safe to update to 7.5, the current flag refers to 7.6 which we haven't rolled out yet for automatic updates. It is a suboptimal behavior of the updater to show this flag for all updates as soon as we put a testing release out. Mostly this is no issue as we don't have frequent updates. 7.6 will be marked shortly as stable though.
