fix(invidious): correct indentation in version retrieval
fix(fleet-install): switch from MariaDB to MySQL setup and update database creation logic
fix(tools): add MySQL repository handling in helper functions
Call stop_spinner in cleanup() to ensure any active spinner is stopped on exit. Consolidate duplicated qm set branches in ubuntu2604-vm.sh into a single invocation to reduce code duplication and simplify VM disk/serial configuration. Remove the explicit ide2 cloudinit device and redundant cloud-init status messages; setup_cloud_init() is still invoked when USE_CLOUD_INIT is enabled, keeping cloud-init configuration centralized.
Introduce optional Cloud-Init integration and better machine type handling for VMs. Changes include: loading cloud-init helpers lazily (load_cloud_init_functions), interactive cloud-init prompt/configuration (vm_prompt_cloud_init) and SSH key handling, a cloud icon for UI, and vm_machine_type_label for readable machine type display. Default machine type switched to q35 and displays the label in prompts and summaries. VM creation logic now conditionally attaches the cloudinit drive (ide2) and runs setup_cloud_init when enabled; otherwise it creates the VM without the cloudinit device. Post-install messaging now either shows cloud-init details or a guidance message about manual guest filesystem expansion. Minor UI/output adjustments and defaults updated accordingly.
Introduce a shared vm-core loader and refactor the Ubuntu 26.04 VM script to use reusable helper functions. misc/vm-core.func: add COMMUNITY_SCRIPTS_URL default and load_api_functions to dynamically source API helpers, then call load_api_functions from load_functions. vm/ubuntu2604-vm.sh: switch to sourcing the shared vm-core via COMMUNITY_SCRIPTS_URL, replace many inline UI and utility functions with generic vm_* helpers (vm_confirm_new_vm, vm_prompt_*, vm_select_storage, vm_define_disk_references, set_description, etc.), modernize quoting and pushd usage, simplify disk import/resizing logic, and set START_VM default to yes. Also update repository URLs to ProxmoxVED and adjust some behavior (machine type handling, storage/disk references). Overall this centralizes common functionality, reduces duplication, and prepares scripts to use the shared core utilities.
Introduce interactive whiptail-based helpers and robust error handling for VM creation.
- Add error_handler() to report failures (calls post_update_to_api if available), print contextual error info, and call cleanup_vmid.
- Ensure TEMP_DIR is removed in cleanup().
- Replace brittle pve_check with version parsing that supports Proxmox VE 8.0–8.9 and 9.0–9.1 (exits with code 105 on unsupported versions).
- Add ssh_check() to warn users running the script over SSH.
- Add sanitize_vm_hostname() and a suite of vm_* helper functions to prompt and validate interactive settings via whiptail: vm_confirm_new_vm, vm_choose_settings_mode, vm_prompt_vmid, vm_prompt_machine_type, vm_apply_machine_type, vm_prompt_disk_size, vm_prompt_disk_cache, vm_prompt_hostname, vm_prompt_cpu_model, vm_prompt_cpu_cores, vm_prompt_ram, vm_prompt_bridge, vm_prompt_mac, vm_prompt_vlan, vm_prompt_mtu, vm_prompt_start_vm.
- Add storage helpers: vm_select_storage, vm_apply_storage_layout, vm_define_disk_references to detect storage pools, set formats/extensions and prepare disk refs.
- Use APP/NSAPP for description title by introducing local description_title in set_description().
These changes centralize validation and interactive flow, improve UX, and harden error reporting and cleanup.
Introduce GitLab release helpers and use them to conditionally update Storyteller.
- misc/tools.func: add get_latest_gitlab_release and check_for_gl_release functions (GitLab API calls, token support, pinning, error handling, requires jq).
- ct/storyteller.sh: wrap update sequence with check_for_gl_release so rebuild/deploy only runs when a new GitLab release is detected; update author metadata.
- install/storyteller-install.sh: remove python3 from apt dependencies and drop NODE_OPTIONS export; minor whitespace cleanup.
These changes prevent unnecessary rebuilds by detecting upstream GitLab releases and improve robustness of release detection and error reporting.
Append a guarded snippet to /root/.bash_profile that forces TERM=linux on physical LXC consoles (e.g. noVNC) for login shells. This prevents readline (8.2+) from querying CPR (ESC[6n) which can produce stray R;80R garbage; the change runs only for non-SSH sessions and detects /dev/console or /dev/ttyN. The block is only added if a __cs_console_term marker is not already present.
Create a systemd override for console-getty.service inside LXC containers to set Environment=TERM=linux (written to /etc/systemd/system/console-getty.service.d/pve-console-term.conf) instead of touching getty@tty1/serial-getty unit dirs. This targets the noVNC/LXC console behavior where console-getty.service, not getty@tty1, is used and prevents agetty cursor-position queries from corrupting the noVNC login prompt. Also remove the older workaround in create_lxc_container that forced 'cmode: console' in the LXC config, since the new override addresses the issue.
Reset shell command hash in spinner and make sleep resilient to shells without redirected sleep, preventing stale PATH lookups and failures in background subshells. Improve Gentoo bootstrap by syncing portage (emerge-webrsync or emerge --sync), preferring binary packages (--getbinpkg --usepkg) before falling back to source emerge, and add a fallback fetcher: prefer curl but use wget if curl is unavailable; fail with a clear error if neither is present. Replace direct curl sourcing with a configurable _fetch command to support the wget fallback.
Add a forced container env (_ct_env) exporting LC_ALL/LANG=C.UTF-8 and DEBIAN_FRONTEND to ensure commands (apt, sed, locale-gen, getent, tz setup) run reliably in fresh templates that lack generated locales. Use the env when running pct exec for locale setup, timezone symlink, DNS checks, and apt installs.
Improve terminal handling: set TERM=xterm-256color only for SSH sessions by appending a guarded block to /root/.bashrc, disable /etc/profile.d/vte.{sh,csh} by renaming them to avoid CSI 6n prompt garbage on LXC/noVNC consoles, and add /etc/profile.d/00-lxc-term-size.sh to force a sane stty rows/cols when the pseudo-tty reports 0x0. These changes prevent locale-related errors and stray CSI responses in LXC containers.
Configure both container-getty@1 and console-getty to auto-login root with unified agetty options, ensuring either Proxmox noVNC (/dev/tty1) or pct/serial (/dev/console) works. Add stable _agetty_opts, write per-service override files, enable console-getty on distros that need it, and reload systemd. Disable vte profile scripts to avoid cursor-query noise on first prompt, restart only active getty services to avoid duplicates, and create /root/.hushlogin to suppress login messages.
Refine LXC container bootstrap and sysvinit autologin handling.
- Fix case branch formatting and change Debian-family check to an elif to avoid logic fall-through.
- Add a non-apt branch for Fedora/Rocky/Alma/CentOS/openEuler/openSUSE/Arch/Gentoo that sets the container timezone from the host and ensures curl is installed via the appropriate package manager.
- Improve sysvinit (/etc/inittab) auto-login changes: use more robust sed patterns, append a console autologin entry via heredoc, signal init to reload inittab before killing getty processes, and target getty processes more precisely to ensure proper respawn with new settings.
Suppress perl/apt locale warnings by configuring C.UTF-8 for apt-based systems. The script now exports DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive and LC_ALL/LANG/LANGUAGE=C.UTF-8 when PKG_MANAGER==apt, and appends LC_ALL and LANG to /etc/environment if not present. This addresses cases where a container inherits an ungenerated host locale (e.g. Devuan) and ensures C.UTF-8, which is always available, is used.
Add Arch Linux container support and integrate pacman into install utilities. New files: ct/archlinux.sh (container build/update script), install/archlinux-install.sh (install entrypoint), and json/archlinux.json (metadata). misc/install.func: detect_arch in detect_os, add pacman bootstrap, and implement pacman handlers for pkg_upgrade, pkg_install, pkg_remove, pkg_clean and package refresh; include openssh install path for pacman and provide a cleanup_lxc override to run pkg_clean. Enables creating/updating Arch Linux LXC containers and proper package manager handling.
Bump Fedora template to 43 and enhance container installation tooling. Persist DIAGNOSTICS setting and introduce post_progress_to_api() to send lightweight telemetry pings from inside containers (fire-and-forget, enabled when DIAGNOSTICS=yes and RANDOM_UUID set). Harden package management flows: re-detect PKG_MANAGER when commands are missing, add apt mirror fallback logic (apt_update_safe) and more robust apt-cacher proxy parsing. Fix Debian 13 LXC root ownership bug (chown /) and add additional DNS/Git host checks (including api.github.com). Improve downloading and validation of tools.func, add multiple post_progress_to_api hooks to signal progress, and add two new install entrypoints (misc/main/install.func and misc/main/alpine-install.func) that consolidate network checks, OS updates, MOTD/SSH setup and container customization.
Seed a default admin account and harden the installer; update symlink behavior and LXC hook argument handling.
- Install: downgrade Node setup to 22, write ADMIN_EMAIL/ADMIN_PASSWORD into /opt/trek/server/.env for initial boot, chmod the file, wait for app health, then remove plaintext creds from the env and print the default admin credentials. Remove previous DB patching script and credentials file generation. Add health-check failure handling.
- ct/trek.sh: check for /opt/trek instead of ~/.trek, run npm ci without --production, and recreate server data/uploads by removing any existing dirs and creating explicit symlinks.
- Installer: mirror symlink strategy used in the container (rm then ln -s) and ensure generated ENCRYPTION_KEY note; add ADMIN_EMAIL default.
- json: set default username to admin@trek.local, update notes about seeded admin, ENCRYPTION_KEY storage, and APP_URL recommendation.
- tools/pve/lxc-prehook.sh: fix append_unique_line_in_ct to pass positional arguments into the bash -c snippet safely (avoid parent-shell expansion).
These changes ensure a reproducible default admin creation flow without leaving plaintext credentials, improve symlink handling, and fix a bug in the LXC prehook.
- fleet: use setup_mariadb instead of setup_mysql (MariaDB works fine for
Fleet and avoids MySQL repo complexity on trixie)
- tools.func: add missing mysql) case block to manage_tool_repository
(was causing 'Unknown tool repository: mysql' error)
- openthread-br: add socat dep for TCP adapters, add --vendor-name/--model-name
(mandatory), bind REST API to 0.0.0.0:8081, configure otbr-web to listen on
all interfaces, update TCP example with socat forkpty pattern
- kan: export BETTER_AUTH_SECRET and POSTGRES_URL before build (required by
@t3-oss/env-nextjs zod validation at build time)
- mysql: remove MariaDB-on-trixie workaround (MySQL repo now has trixie packages),
update GPG key from RPM-GPG-KEY-mysql-2023 to RPM-GPG-KEY-mysql-2025
MySQL APT repo GPG key (RPM-GPG-KEY-mysql-2023) expired 2025-10-22
and no trixie packages exist. Use distro MariaDB which is a drop-in
replacement and natively available.
Replace inconsistent msg_info calls with msg_warn for mirror-list warnings and msg_custom for "Attempting mirror" lines to unify output formatting in misc/build.func and misc/install.func. Simplify tools/pve/update-lxcs-cron.sh by removing the long mirror-probing block and using a straightforward apt-get update + noninteractive dist-upgrade (and cleanup of EXTERNALLY-MANAGED) in containers to reduce complexity and improve maintainability.
Improve package mirror resiliency in misc/build.func and misc/install.func by adding fallback and detection logic for Debian/Ubuntu and Alpine CDNs. Changes include:
- Detect distro (debian vs ubuntu) and use appropriate mirror lists and primary mirror (ftp.debian.org vs archive.ubuntu.com).
- Add retry loops that try a shuffled list of regional mirrors, test connectivity, update repo files, and attempt package installs/updates again.
- For Alpine (apk) installs and updates, try alternate mirrors on failure, write /etc/apk/repositories, and surface clearer warnings/errors if all mirrors fail.
- Update interactive prompts and informational messages to reference the correct mirror list (Ubuntu vs Debian) and generalize prompt wording.
- Improve exit handling so failures are reported and abort the process when necessary.
These changes make automated installs more robust against CDN sync issues and unreachable primary mirrors.
Standardize and clarify apt mirror diagnostics in misc/build.func and misc/install.func: update warning phrasing when apt-get update fails; change per-mirror failure messages from "Mirror X: <reason>" to "Mirror X failed (<reason>)"; change success messages to "CDN set to <mirror>: tests passed"; and add informational logs like "Attempting mirror: <mirror>" when trying alternate mirrors. These changes improve visibility into mirror selection and failure reasons during package update/installation.
When apt-get update fails, capture and display the failing mirror host to aid debugging. Adds grep-based extraction of the upstream host (from /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.sources or /etc/apt/sources.list) with a fallback to "unknown", and includes the host in the warning/echo. Applied to misc/build.func (inside pct exec), misc/install.func (pkg_update), and tools/pve/update-lxcs-cron.sh.
Reduce noisy mirror-related output and clarify messages across misc/build.func and misc/install.func. Reword various apt/mirror status lines (hash mismatch, SSL/certificate, apt-get update failed, package install failed) and standardize success to "Using mirror"/msg_ok. Remove verbose scan/try/skip/count logs and suppression of detailed apt output to make output cleaner for automated runs. Also change the custom_mirror sed replacement to use http:// instead of https:// to support non-HTTPS local mirrors.
Add explicit detection of SSL/certificate errors when running apt-get update and treat those mirrors as failed (logs a short SSL error snippet and returns failure). Change mirror URL rewrites to use http:// instead of https:// when substituting mirror hosts, and remove ftp.in.debian.org from the AP mirror lists. Changes applied to misc/build.func (try_mirrors) and misc/install.func (pkg_update/_try_apt_mirror) to improve mirror fallback behavior and error reporting.
