Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish) Beta
-
@RoboMod given that there is plenty of LTS time left on 20.04 I don't think we are in a rush to support it very soon. For a start I guess it makes to just wait a bit anyways for upstream to iron out any first hit issues.
This also is related to binary releases of other components like docker, nginx, ... which we download explicitly from their repos instead of the Ubuntu ones.
Then further the VPS provider often provider their own slightly changed Ubuntu variants, so also here I think it makes sense to wait a bit for them to settle.
Of course, if there is a security issue or such, which requires us to act faster, then the situation changes.

Since this got released today, I tried to install Cloudron. Mostly everything works but nginx packages are not there yet - http://nginx.org/packages/ubuntu/pool/nginx/n/nginx/ . So, we have to wait till they provide the packages for ubuntu 22.04 (I tried older packages but they don't work because ubuntu 22 seems to use libssl3 instead of libssl1.1).
-
@robi yes, just had to select the right package in ubuntu 22.04 . Just https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/box/-/commit/f5a2e8545b5e7e5c1d17a18790fccff0a5ea7669 was needed.

If you are trying 22.04 Jammy Jellyfish in a Virtual Machine, there can be issues with Wayland during login. (Scroll to 4:00 here:

Mouse over to the bottom right and activate the dropdown menu there.
Wayland isn't famous for playing well with proprietary nvidia drivers.
If you want a leaner experience and Lubuntu, then there is a LxQt 1.1 PPA here:

I managed to mostly getting it working. Some interesting changes:
- cgroup v2 is enabled by default - https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.html
- Private home directories by default - https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/private-home-directories-for-ubuntu-21-04-onwards/
- nginx upstream has not offered jammy binaries yet, so we have reverted to using ubuntu packages for nginx. On ubuntu 18 alone, we continue to use upstream packages for TLS v1.3
- Python 3 default

I noticed that Cloudron still has the install instructions for 20.04... does this mean we don't yet recommend using 22.04 at the moment? Or are the docs just a bit outdated? @staff
I noticed the Cloudron marketplace app in Vultr uses 22.04 now, so just was wondering about those inconsistencies in the docs and marketplace apps.

@d19dotca So, with Cloudron 7.3, we will make the default to be ubuntu 22. I am not aware of pending issues as such.
That said,
@d19dotca installation on a clean 22.04 failed for me lately so while it is working with some small adjustments, it is not stable out of the box right now. At least from what I saw is that you can upgrade from 20.04 to 22.04.
@subven do you know where it was failing? It should be in
/var/log/cloudron-setup.log
. If you tell me which VPS provider, I can test it out as well. -
Just curious if there was an update to this... was there a genuine issue with the 22.04 install/operation with Cloudron @subven / @girish ? Considering upgrading to 22.04 later this year just to be more up-to-date (I realize there isn't really a real-world issue to require upgrading yet but it's just my OCD, lol), so was just curious about the status / reliability on 22.04.
-
@d19dotca there should be no issue to upgrade to 22.04 LTS. Take a look at the documentation. Just had trouble to install Cloudron on some VPS that came with 22.04 vendor images. Never tested it again since 7.3 but since you don't read a lot of topics about it in the forums, it should work fine.

How long is re-creating the containers supposed to take more or less? Its been about three hours now and I'm not sure if things are supposed to go this way…

@andreasdueren Both, box and collectd are running. But the Dashboard is not available. To reboot or not to reboot is the question.
