Ubuntu 18.04 LTS release transitions to extended security maintenance
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS release transitions to extended security maintenance
News on June 1st, Canonical announced today that the Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) operating system series has officially transitioned to Extended Security Maintenance (ESM) and will be launched in May 2023. Effective immediately on the 31st.
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) continues its tradition of providing commercial support for Ubuntu LTS versions in the form of Extended Security Maintenance (ESM, Extended Security Maintenance). After reaching the end of standard support after maintenance, Ubuntu 16.04 ESM products will end support in April 2024.
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS was released five years ago, on April 26, 2018, and will now have critical bug and security fixes provided by Canonical for five years through the Extended Security Maintenance (ESM) package of Ubuntu Advantage for Infrastructure Supported until April 2028.
Businesses that rely on stability and are not yet able to upgrade to newer Ubuntu LTS releases are advised to purchase an Ubuntu Pro subscription if they want to benefit from five years of support for their Bionic Beaver installations.
Ubuntu Pro is available for amd64, arm64, s390X and PowerPC architectures and is available for desktops, servers, IoT devices, public clouds on AWS (Amazon Web Services), Azure and Google Cloud, as well as IBM Cloud and Oracle Cloud platform.
"By subscribing to Ubuntu Pro, you ensure that your Ubuntu 18.04 LTS deployments are fully supported until 2028. This extended support period provides ongoing assistance and maintenance for your workloads," Canonical said.
Those users who have no plans to purchase an Ubuntu Pro subscription are urged to upgrade their installations to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish) as soon as possible, which brings an updated kernel that supports more devices, as well as a number of update packages.
Canonical states that the supported upgrade path from Ubuntu 18.04 LTS is through Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and then to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.
Users still running Ubuntu 18.04 after May 31, 2023 will not receive any security updates, which means this installation will be exposed to security threats.
The above is the detailed content of Ubuntu 18.04 LTS release transitions to extended security maintenance. For more information, please follow other related articles on the PHP Chinese website!

Can I install mysql on Windows 7
Apr 08, 2025 pm 03:21 PM
Yes, MySQL can be installed on Windows 7, and although Microsoft has stopped supporting Windows 7, MySQL is still compatible with it. However, the following points should be noted during the installation process: Download the MySQL installer for Windows. Select the appropriate version of MySQL (community or enterprise). Select the appropriate installation directory and character set during the installation process. Set the root user password and keep it properly. Connect to the database for testing. Note the compatibility and security issues on Windows 7, and it is recommended to upgrade to a supported operating system.
Can mysql and mariadb coexist
Apr 08, 2025 pm 02:27 PM
MySQL and MariaDB can coexist, but need to be configured with caution. The key is to allocate different port numbers and data directories to each database, and adjust parameters such as memory allocation and cache size. Connection pooling, application configuration, and version differences also need to be considered and need to be carefully tested and planned to avoid pitfalls. Running two databases simultaneously can cause performance problems in situations where resources are limited.
Unable to log in to mysql as root
Apr 08, 2025 pm 04:54 PM
The main reasons why you cannot log in to MySQL as root are permission problems, configuration file errors, password inconsistent, socket file problems, or firewall interception. The solution includes: check whether the bind-address parameter in the configuration file is configured correctly. Check whether the root user permissions have been modified or deleted and reset. Verify that the password is accurate, including case and special characters. Check socket file permission settings and paths. Check that the firewall blocks connections to the MySQL server.
Do mysql need to pay
Apr 08, 2025 pm 05:36 PM
MySQL has a free community version and a paid enterprise version. The community version can be used and modified for free, but the support is limited and is suitable for applications with low stability requirements and strong technical capabilities. The Enterprise Edition provides comprehensive commercial support for applications that require a stable, reliable, high-performance database and willing to pay for support. Factors considered when choosing a version include application criticality, budgeting, and technical skills. There is no perfect option, only the most suitable option, and you need to choose carefully according to the specific situation.

Can mysql handle multiple connections
Apr 08, 2025 pm 03:51 PM
MySQL can handle multiple concurrent connections and use multi-threading/multi-processing to assign independent execution environments to each client request to ensure that they are not disturbed. However, the number of concurrent connections is affected by system resources, MySQL configuration, query performance, storage engine and network environment. Optimization requires consideration of many factors such as code level (writing efficient SQL), configuration level (adjusting max_connections), hardware level (improving server configuration).
Can mysql run on android
Apr 08, 2025 pm 05:03 PM
MySQL cannot run directly on Android, but it can be implemented indirectly by using the following methods: using the lightweight database SQLite, which is built on the Android system, does not require a separate server, and has a small resource usage, which is very suitable for mobile device applications. Remotely connect to the MySQL server and connect to the MySQL database on the remote server through the network for data reading and writing, but there are disadvantages such as strong network dependencies, security issues and server costs.

The MySQL connection may be due to the following reasons: MySQL service is not started, the firewall intercepts the connection, the port number is incorrect, the user name or password is incorrect, the listening address in my.cnf is improperly configured, etc. The troubleshooting steps include: 1. Check whether the MySQL service is running; 2. Adjust the firewall settings to allow MySQL to listen to port 3306; 3. Confirm that the port number is consistent with the actual port number; 4. Check whether the user name and password are correct; 5. Make sure the bind-address settings in my.cnf are correct.
