Upgrade MariaDB version 10.3 to maintained version of MariaDB

[Jabberwock]

Installing CyberPanel on ubuntu 20.04 will install MariaDB version 10.3.
This is an old version, and will stop being maintained shortly.
Even plesk installs version 10.6.
Version 10.3 breaks my project because of missing sql functions such as JSON_ARRAYAGG()
What do you think?

Upgrading MariaDB manually

I think have finally properly upgraded to MariaDB v10.6 on Ubuntu 20.04. Here is what I did. The process should be similar for other OSs, but please be careful and post any variations that you discover below. Note: there’s a lot of extra steps included here just to be extra thorough. For instance, it isn’t absolutely necessary to check the packages installed/uninstalled, check status of mariadb etc… 1.

Yeah, I’ve successfully upgraded using these instructions.
But I think it’s best that by default version 10.6 will be installed.

Should I convert this to a feature request ?

[Jabberwock]

Sure. Appreciated

10.11 is the latest LTS version. Might as well set that to the default. It’s simple to do with the Cyberpanel install script - just add the repo with 10.11 as the version. Then when cyberpanel script does apt install mariadb, it’ll just install 10.11 rather than the OS default (10.03 for 20.04, 10.06 for 22.04) - no need for anyone to mess with the upgrade process.
