minor feature:
* ubos-admin status has learned a number of new tricks. It can now report on IP addresses, incompletely performed upgrades, and more. It also distinguishes between soft and hard scenarios for disks getting full.
* ubos-admin createsite is more tolerant and explains better when certain incompatible input is provided, such as adding the wrong Accessory to an App, or attempting to run an App at a Wildcard hostname.
* If the UBOS Staff is written during boot of a Device while no network is available, the generated HTML now displays the warning message much more prominently. This was done in direct response to user feedback as previously it could easily be overlooked.
* Application upgrades for Mastodon, Matomo, Mattermost, Nextcloud, Webtrees and Wordpress.

2020-08-1617 Aug 2020 17:01
major feature:
A new UBOS update is available on all release channels and all platforms. Here are some of the highlights:
* The Raspberry Pi 4 is now supported.
* UBOS has become even smarter about dependency management: if an Accessory requires another, you don t need to specify the second one any more when creating or updating a Site. This is a great time saver when running Apps such as Wordpress or Nextcloud where Accessories often depend on others.
* Improvement to the HTML generated for the UBOS Staff.
* More customization options are available for Nextcloud
* Speed improvements, bug fixes and lots of little things that make day-to-day work with UBOS even simpler. Like ubos-admin listsites --with .
As usual, the details are in the release notes.

beta1206 Nov 2017 18:18
major feature:
This release has been focused on: improving the way how UBOS is built and tested; making it possible to release app upgrades and OS upgrades independently of each other; making it easier for developers to package their applications for UBOS. There are now application examples for apps built using PHP, Python, Java, Ruby on Rails, MySQL and Postgresql.
beta1114 Jun 2017 02:45
major feature:
UBOS Beta 11 is here, and we are proud to add the Marvell EspressoBIN to the list of supported devices.
Launched on Kickstarter earlier this year, the EspressoBIN is an interesting board: it doesn t have any graphics (which is fine with us because most UBOS devices are used as headless servers) but instead it has three Ethernet ports and a SATA connector. The currently available 1GB version costs only 49 on Amazon. So it s perfect for running UBOS.
We have also verified that the Raspberry Pi Zero W (the 10 version that has WiFi) also works out of the box with UBOS.
beta910 Nov 2016 18:14
major feature:
One-command installation of Nextcloud 10. One-command upgrade from ownCloud to Nextcloud, and from Nextcloud 9 to Nextcloud 10. Added some Wordpress themes and plugins.
Automatic file system snapshots protect against failing upgrades. Not that those should ever happen, but let s be safe instead of sorry.
The development of UBOS-based appliances has become simpler and more secure.
Various bug fixes and improvements.
All images for all platforms has been updated (PC, Raspberry Pi Zero/1/2/3, BeagleBone Black, Docker, Cloud, Container)
beta817 Aug 2016 18:00
minor feature:
When creating a new site with ubos-admin createsite, you can now easily install several apps at the same site. For example, you could run your Wordpress blog at example.com/blog and your Nextcloud family file sharing at example.com/files. The command has been restructured to allow you to enter multiple apps.
You can now restore old backups to new apps. For example, if you d like to migrate your ownCloud installation to Nextcloud, all you need to do is to create a backup of your ownCloud site with ubos-admin backup and then tell ubos-admin restore that you d like to migrate. It s really easy.
UBOS now has the beginnings of internet protocol 6 (IPv6) support.
Various bug fixes and improvements.
