Hi I am running the ISPconfig perfect server with ubuntu 18 + Nginx 1.18 There is a nginx module that I want to use, and it requires Nginx 1.19 + , so I want to upgrade nginx to 1.19. but I can not upgrade to ver 1.19. I guess 1.19 is not treated as stable for ubuntu 18. 1. Should I upgrade to nginx 1.19? How to do the upgrade? Add the repository for the stable version of Nginx $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nginx/stable Now update it $ sudo apt-get update Run install $ sudo apt-get install nginx nginx is already the newest version (1.18.0-3ubuntu1+bionic1). thanks
The nginx provided by the nginx developers will probably not work out of the box as it runs under a wrong user (nginx) compared to the nginx that ships with Ubuntu, which runs as www-data. So exchanging Nginx in that way will likely break your setup and the system and ISPConfig will stop working if you do so.
Even Ubuntu 20.04 has nginx version 0.18.0, so my guess is nginx 0.19 is too new to yet be in any stable Ubuntu. Wait for 22.04 LTS, that may have a later nginx. If I were you, I would remove that extra nginx repository from apt configuration so yo do not by mistake install something from there.
