Upgrading Ubuntu 18.04 ->20.04 on Cloudron 6.0.1

[necrevistonnezr]

Is upgrading Ubuntu still more or less done as described for 16.04 -> 18.04 here https://blog.cloudron.io/upgrading-to-ubuntu-18-04-lts-bionic-beaver/ ?

I'm also interested, mainly if someone knows how upgrading from 16.04->20.4 is done ^^ Yeah, I'm a bit late

Yes, no other upgrade flow as such was properly tested so far. Generally ubuntu dist upgrades have not proven to be very consistent and reliable in the past. But we don't really have much data for 20.04 here.

@nebulon About that, has Cloudron6 been tested with 16.04, or should I update to 18.04 before updating Cloudron ?

@mehdi I have one 16.04 machine left and Cloudron is still working fine after the update to 6.0

[nebulon]

Yes Cloudron 6 is also tested on Ubuntu 16.04

@necrevistonnezr Don't upgrade yet, I have a blog post that I will publish later today on how to update. It's a bit different than 16 to 18. That main difference is that the mysql server has to be upgraded as well.
