v18.0 Stable Release #6 - 10 Newly Updated ISOs, Hub Builds & Proxmox/LXC builds

The TKL team is thrilled to unveil 10 fresh updates to our appliance lineup!

See here for all v18.x announcements. These 10 updated apps are available now on the TurnKey Hub, as well as downloads as ISOs or Proxmox/LXC builds.

We're excited to announce that the release of 10 appliances is finally here, after a bit of a wait! Apologies for the delay—the TKL team is focused on streamlining our processes to make our company more efficient and give you guys faster releases.

While there are only a few appliances left to update (some have been retired), please note that the next batch might take a bit longer. We've saved the most challenging ones for last, but we're making progress!

Key Points from this Batch's Updates

These appliances from this batch have numerous bug fixes and enhancements. If any appliance in this batch or previous ones lacks certain updates, you can typically install them via apt. Just keep in mind that one update, the PHP version change/update script in all PHP-included appliances, can't be installed this way. Here's the lineup, listed in no particular order:

• Downgraded Bugzilla to 5.0.6 due to tracker issues in #1918
• Gitea as of v1.19 includes CI/CD [closes #1877] & fixed Gitea appliance inithook (note correct username 'gitea', not 'admin') [closes #1808]
• Installed latest GitLab-CE v16.7.7 - from third party GitLab apt repo.
• Upgraded to latest LTS version of TYPO3 12.x via composer: 12.4.12
• Updated Mattermost to latest upstream: v9.0.1.
• Installed latest Observium CE release - 23.09.13005
• Installed latest upstream version of phpBB: 3.3.11
• Install latest version of processwire: 3.0.227
• Updated roundup to 2.3.0
• Updated to latest upstream Syncthing (via upstream apt repo) - v1.27.4

Exciting news! Some appliances now come with fixed upstream bugs and added features from third-party providers. This release automatically includes these updates (all upstream software updated since v17.x), bringing even more value to our users.

Any problems with any v18.0 appliances, any of our custom software or other included tools, please feel free to post in our support forums or lodge an issue on our GitHub Issue Tracker.

Both GitHub and our Forums require registered user accounts. GitHub accounts are easy to create and should "just work" (because they have lots of resources and thus advanced spam managment). Unfortunately due to large amounts of spam, the automated website account approval requires manual approval. If you don't have an account and want one, please register for one. Then follow the instructions in the automated account creation email that should be sent out immediately. An alternate option if you have feedback is to do a guest comment here, using the email that you registered with and note that you also want your website account enabled. If you don't want a website account but do have feedback, please just do a guest comment here.

Please note that any guest posts will require manual moderation. so your post won't be visiable until it's approved. So if you can't see your post, that's likely why.

Looking Ahead

This release is a part of our ongoing effort to deliver robust, secure, and flexible server appliances. We're already working on the next batch of updated appliances, but as noted above, the next batch may not be that quick. As always we're guided by your feedback and the evolving needs of all our user base, please do provide feedback - good or bad. Regardless, stay tuned for more updates, and as always, we value your input and support.

Thank you for choosing TurnKey Linux. Happy deployments!
