| Maintenance of database servers The database servers for the web hosting will undergo maintenance on Thursday, April 11, 2024 between 7:00 and 7:30 h (AM).

The MySQL version is updated from MySQL 8.0.21-12 to 8.0.36-28. |
| Switching the default PHP version from PHP 8.0 to PHP 8.1 The software PHP 8.0 that we provide does not receive security updates any more. Therefore, we will switch the PHP version of all sites that still use PHP 8.0 to PHP 8.1. Scheduled time: Tuesday, 5 December 2023, morning What does this mean for you? Please check your web application for compatibility with PHP 8.1 and upgrade it if necessary. Otherwise, your website might not operate properly after 5 December 2023. If you program the application yourself, use the migration guide. If your site is already running with PHP 8.1 or higher, this information does not apply to you. |
| The access servers (webdev02…) now have a central Composer installation – /usr/local/bin/composer. We usually update it a few days after a release. If you need a certain / older version, you can still install it in your server directory. |
| Limitations for e-mails sent by web sites An explanation of reasons, implementation and how a suitable sender address can raise the limit from 50 to 250 mails per 24 hours can be found on the new page in our documentation. |
Available PHP versions: 8.1 (default), 8.2, 8.3
