Debian 12

To start, read the official release notes.

If your install fits into "vanilla Debian plus maybe a handful of 3rd-party repos", then this guide for a simple upgrade to Debian 12 "bookworm" from Debian 11 "bullseye" can be helpful. 3rd-party repos are handled with a find command.

Note upgrade is only supported from Debian 11 to Debian 12. If you are on Debian 10, upgrade to Debian 11 first and make sure to change the security repo as per the release notes. Then once on Debian 11, you can upgrade to Debian 12.

• Check free disk space

Making Nextcloud's Cron Behave

Nextcloud needs frequent background jobs to keep running properly.

Depending on the situation this "cron job" may take a very long time, overlapping with the default 5 minute delay between jobs. Which may end up running several instances of the job.

To mitigate this we have 2 options:

• Use a systemd service+timer
• Encapsulate the cronjob into a bash script that checks if it is already running

The systemd approach has official support and will (by default) not run on top of a previous run (if still running).

You'd like a docker container that runs cron jobs, with the output of those cron jobs going to stdout so they are accessible as docker logs. How do you do that?

Install cron, and set it up to run in the foreground

In your Dockerfile, apt-get -y install cron Use apk or whatever if you are running on alpine or another distribution Set the command or entrypoint in your Dockerfile to run cron 9n the foreground

ENTRYPOINT ["/usr/sbin/cron", "-f"]
