Webmin: Should i let it handle all package updates?

littleguylittleguy Member

Running it on a Ubuntu server. Webmin sometimes suggests updates for certain packages, but seems to ignore updates for php and apache2 packages.

Is it ok for me to update these packages via SSH console? Is there a possibility it will break webmin?

    I doubt it would break webmin unless there is some major change to the way it operates or to config files. Just read the release notes for the updates.

  • Try it in a testing server maybe?

  • I always update my virtualmin servers via a terminal and it never breaks :)

    Besides, most are bug-fixes anyway. There's a very slim chance you'll see new functionality introduced in these packages. So the chance you break your server with upgrading it is very small :)

  • Thanks for the great advice!
