Update Ubuntu

[privsec]

Hello everyone!

I want to update my ubuntu to the latest version.

Is it a simple update, or is there a better process to follow with Cloudron?

Hey @privsec, as per the message when you log on to your Cloudron via SSH, please do /not/ manually update packages in Ubuntu

If you mean an upgrade to a newer version, please follow this guide: https://docs.cloudron.io/guides/upgrade-ubuntu-22/

Note that only the latest stable is supported as far as I know.

@staff I just spotted that that still says:

Cloudron will support 18.04, 20.04 and 22.04.

But as far as I understand it 18.04 is no longer supported?

Right, Ubuntu 18.04 is by now only in ESM mode, so quite old and not in LTS anymore https://releases.ubuntu.com/

We kept it as supported for Cloudron until now, but found that Cloudron 7.5 needs a nodejs version which does not work on Ubuntu 18.04 anymore. So we are dropping support. There will be more official info once Cloudron 7.5 is pushed as stable.

We can't change the doc page yet atleast until 7.5 is stable. Also, 18.04 is still supported to install pre-7.4 releases.
