    Curious as it has been out for a while if there will be built in centmin support to upgrade to it?

    Your efforts @eva2000 are as always astounding.

    Nginx 1.31.x
    MariaDB 10.x/11.4+/12.3+
    Centmin Mod 140.00beta01 development has MariaDB 11.4 plans. Though more work and end users will need to re-learn some things as all the client MySQL command/binary names have now removed alias shortcuts and refer to MariaDB's real binary client names i.e. MySQL = mariadb, mysqldump = mariadb-dump, mysqladmin = mariadb-admin etc

    centmin.sh menu option 11 submenu in 140.00beta01 added MariaDB 10.11 and 11.4 LTS private testing for now. While 131.00stable supports up to MariaDB 10.6 LTS.

    Examples in place for 140.00beta01 behind the scenes https://github.com/centminmod/centminmod/blob/140.00beta01/inc/core_functions.inc but end users managing MariaDB 11.4 outside of centmin.sh and shell scripts, will need to be aware of the changes. That includes changes to variable names and variable defaults https://community.centminmod.com/th...to-11-4-mysql-variables-change-history.25814/

    Looks like some big operational changes. I noticed 10.6 to 11.4 is blocked off still, will you be rolling that out to the Beta crowd soon or still working on it?

    I've just tried to upgrade from 10.6 to 10.11 after doing a backup and I'm still getting:
    Code (Text):
    Place holder for now until MariaDB 10.11.x is ready to be added

    EDIT: Upgrade started when I put ENABLE_MARIADBTENELEVENUPGRADE='y' in custom_config.inc.

    Upgrade failed.

    Error whilst installing the packages as AlmaLinux 9, MariaDB 10.11 no longer provides the MariaDB-compat package:
    Code (Text):
    MariaDB 10.11.x YUM install...
yum -y install MariaDB-client MariaDB-common MariaDB-compat MariaDB-devel MariaDB-server MariaDB-shared --disablerepo=epel --disableplugin=priorities

    MariaDB upgrade log attached.

    EDIT: As the script removed MariaDB 10.6 before it failed, I went ahead and installed the 10.11 packages manually (minus MariaDB-compat), enabled/started the service, ran the upgrade, verified tables and connectivity, checked logs, and 10.11.15 seems to be working as expected.

    I am on alma8. My 140.00beta1 does that same as yours - placeholder.

    Ill sit tight for a bit I think. I dont want the hassle of the removal and manual reinstallation

    @eva2000 did you see this issue with upgrading to MariaDB 10.11.x? I resolved it by continuing the install manually, but I think the upgrade script needs to exclude MariaDB-compat so that it doesn't fail half way through.
