After the upgrade, you can use wo stack migrate --nginx to upgrade Nginx packages and all your sites configurations. It will enable HTTP/3 QUIC and update all deprecated directives previously used.

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS

WordOps code is already compatible with Ubuntu 24.04 LTS but some php packages required for WordPress are not available yet. We will publish an official release as soon as Ubuntu 24.04 LTS is fully and officially supported by WordOps. So please stay tuned !

• $host variable added to Nginx fastcgi_params and proxy_params with HTTP/3 QUIC

• install script mariadb repository migration failed on some servers

Issues with MariaDB repository

If you encounter an error with the MariaDB repository after installing one of the latest versions of WordOps like the example below :

Error: The list of sources could not be read.
Error: Malformed entry 1 in list file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mariadb.list (URI parse)

Check your current MariaDB version with the command sudo mysql --version. It will display something like this :

mysql  Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.11.8-MariaDB, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using  EditLine wrapper

In this example, the MariaDB version is 10.11, displayed afterDistrib
You can fix this error by properly set the MariaDB repository with the following commands :

# get the linux distribution
distro=$(lsb_release -is)
wo_linux_distro="${distro,,}"
# get the linux distro codename 
wo_linux_codename=$(lsb_release -sc)
# set the MariaDB version running on your server
version="10.11"
# add the repository
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/mariadb-keyring.pgp] https://deb.mariadb.org/$version/$wo_linux_distro $wo_linux_codename main" >/etc/apt/sources.list.d/mariadb.list
# update apt preference
sed -i 's/^Pin: origin .*/Pin: origin deb.mariadb.org/' /etc/apt/preferences.d/MariaDB.pref

deb.mariadb.org is dynamic mirror which redirect to the closest repository to your server. Learn more here.
