  1. OK great! I actually installed that package but wasn't entirely certain if it was a suitable replacement.

    I do have one other question.... I installed froxlor from the repository. The documentation states that I should be able to open a browser and connect to http://<IP ADDRESS>/froxlor. It doesn't look like the package installation took care of creating the site under apache2/sites-available (/sites-enabled). Is it expected that we create that file manually?

  2. Hello,

    I am new to Froxlor but I really like what I see so far! I've started the process of installing it on Ubuntu Server 20.04, but got stuck during the apache2 with fcgid configuration. The installation calls for installing libnss-mysql. This package is no longer distributed with Ubuntu 20.04. It looks like it's also not available in Ubuntu 18.04.

    I also looked at the documentation for installing Froxlor via apache2 with php fpm and it also calls for libnss-mysql. Lastly, I looked at nginx with php fpm and it calls for libnss-mysql-bg which also is no longer distributed with Ubuntu 20.04 (or Ubuntu 18.04).

    It looks like the last time either libnss-mysql or libnss-mysql-bg were included with Ubuntu was in version 16.04 which reaches end of standard support in April 2021 (end of life in April 2024), so I do not want to deploy an operating system that's 2 months away from no longer being supported.

    When was the last time this installation process validated and with which version(s) of Ubuntu? Are there any alternatives to libnss-mysql or libnss-mysql-bg?

    Please advise?
