    Hi guys. I am running Cloudron on a Netcup VPS on Ubuntu 18.04. What's the best approach regarding upgrading the OS? I could think of those options:

    1. Wait until there is a cloudron image with Ubuntu 22.04 and using Cloudron Backup to reinstall Cloudron.
    2. Upgrade Ubuntu 18.04 and hope for the best. Use a Netcup snapshot if things go bad.
    3. Do nothing: 18.04 ist just fine and upgrading to 22.04 has no real advantages in terms of performance and security.

    Happy to hear your thoughts. I would somehow enjoy to try option 2. But I have a feeling it might fail hard as I only have minor to zero Linux skills. πŸ™‚

    Cheers
    Erik

    @erikscholz I would go with option #2 and actually recently upgraded from 20 to 22.
    Did you check out
    https://docs.cloudron.io/guides/upgrade-ubuntu-20/
    and
    https://docs.cloudron.io/guides/upgrade-ubuntu-22/
    ?

    Personally, I'd go with option 1 then there is no risk of the update not going according to plan (and also, Cloudron already supports 22.04)

    Edit: but see also these @staff posts which suggest try 2 and if you have any issues just revert to 1:

    @BrutalBirdie said in Best way to update from Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04?:

    @jdaviescoates
    I did both πŸ˜„

    The upgrade to Ubuntu 20 might be faster, depends on what you have to restore. (2TB of Movies?) 😬

    I would do a backup, start with the upgrade to 20 and if you don't like something, you can always just do a clean sweep and restore from backup 🀷

    @girish said in Best way to update from Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04?:

    Ubuntu 20 upgrade has worked via dist-upgrade works fairly well. Only thing is one has to baby sit the upgrade and keep pressing 'yes'.

    I would do what @BrutalBirdie said, make a backup and then try to upgrade ubuntu. If it doesn't work, restore from backup into new ubuntu.

    I use Cloudron with Gandi & Hetzner

    2 is probably the quickest. But on a few VPS I have seen some packages not updating properly (something to do with their mirrors). So, if ubuntu upgrade does not work, try option 1.

    @girish I have checked the Cloudron docs and seen the following:

    β€žUpgrade fails with Full text search feature
    There is a bug in Cloudron 7.2 where in the mail server does not start in Ubuntu 22 when the Full text search feature is turned on. Please wait till Cloudron 7.3 to upgrade.β€œ

    Source: Upgrading to Ubuntu 22.04 (Jammy Jellyfish)

    I think this note is obsolete and the docs can be updated?

    Best
    Jay

    Hi Girish. Upgrading from 18.04 to 20.04 went pretty well. Now I am kind of stuck at the end of the upgrade from 20.04 to 22.04. It's the step "/home/yellowtent/box/scripts/recreate-containers". I started it around 3 hours ago. It has not finished yet as you can see in the attached screenshot. I just have 6 apps running: 2 Ghost instances, Surfer, Umami and Chatwoot. Any idea what the issue could be?

    @erikscholz can you try rebooting the server? Sometimes that fixes the docker getting hung.

    The reboot fixed the issue. Seemed the containers were updated even though the status bar was still progressing. Thanks!
