Compatibility and Known Limitations¶
Version: Snotic Self-Hosted 0.1.30~rc1 | Status: Early Access
Supported matrix¶
| Platform | Architecture | Clean install | Upgrade from 0.1.29 | Reinstall | Rollback and re-upgrade |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ubuntu 22.04 LTS | amd64 | Validated | Validated | Validated | Validated within schema v1 |
| Ubuntu 24.04 LTS | amd64 | Validated | Validated | Validated | Validated within schema v1 |
ARM64, other Linux distributions, shared hosting, container-only application deployment, and an existing conflicting web/database stack are not supported by this release.
Preserved identifiers¶
The Snotic public name does not rename the installed compatibility surface. This release preserves:
- package and CLI name
hipanel; - existing systemd units and installed paths;
- configuration keys and schema version 1;
- SQLite metadata and authentication state;
- sessions and scoped API keys;
- backup metadata, formats, registries, encryption keys, and restore behavior;
- API routes and scopes; and
- package ordering and release history.
Do not replace hipanel with snotic in commands or paths.
Upgrade and rollback limits¶
The declared minimum source package is 0.1.29. Same-version reinstall is
supported and preserves state. Package rollback to 0.1.29 is declared only
while configuration and application data remain readable and writable at
schema version 1.
A package rollback does not undo changes made to WordPress, MariaDB, Nginx, DNS, certificates, or external storage. Take a verified encrypted backup and independent host snapshot before package changes.
Early Access limits¶
- The distribution is supplied privately to approved recipients and is not a public download.
- The core application is not represented as open source.
- There is no automatic update, public APT promotion, SLA, managed monitoring, customer portal, payment, or software expiry.
- S3 is optional and non-EC2 use may require customer-managed static AWS credentials.
- Snotic Site Exporter is a controlled-pilot build. Its PHP fallback does not claim live-write consistency.
- The customer remains responsible for server security, DNS, TLS, capacity, updates, backups, restore testing, and incidents.
