Ubuntu 12.04 LTS support timeline

Posted by obrienmd on April 12, 2012 at 4:28pm

I been testing beta versions of 12.04 LTS w/ PHP 5.3 and Nginx (both from same sources as BOA), and stability / performance have been very good thus far. Post-release (end of April), is there any timeline for when BOA may support Precise Pangolin?

It will be supported after some initial testing, after release, as with all previous Ubuntu releases. See also: http://groups.drupal.org/node/216974#comment-711579

Precise support is already in HEAD, tested and working fine in the VirtualBox based VM. There are no releases of MariaDB or Percona for precise, so we are using their oneiric releases for now, and it works fine.

VirtualBox based VM ?

Looks like Precise may not be able to use purge module currently?

Commit: 27a8be1d1a506c24db0b2bcda03db745e4fd0957
BOA: Disable Purge on Precise - it is not available in the nginx-extras package (Robert)

Is the only way to get this solved to go push for inclusion in the Ubuntu package?

But Purge and Expire is no longer relevant after we have switched BOA to use microcaching only. It is still there for those who prefer to override defaults and force 1h cache with sites/all/modules/cache_hour/YES.txt control file (introduced in HEAD).
