    Hello,

    I just noticed that my server informs me about this:

    *** Livepatch has fixed kernel vulnerabilities. System restart recommended on the closest maintenance window ***

    Shouldn't this trigger a notification in Cloudron that I should reboot the server next time it's pleasant for me? Looks like it just works if no Livepatch is used so maybe a bug.

    Best Regards,

      Where do you see this message? Cloudron will raise a notification, if the files /var/run/reboot-required exists which was at least so far the convention for Ubuntu to communicate if restarts are required.

        @nebulon said in Reboot for security updates broken on Livepatch?:

        Where do you see this message?

        This is printed out directly after the NOTE TO CLOUDRON ADMINS part after logging in to the server via ssh. /var/run/reboot-required doesn't exist.
