Hello Mike,
I’ve got a few installations - usually specifically for customers.
It is more complex than a vanilla Linux LAMP installation and upgrades, customizations, API access, uploads and the new file fields make things more difficult.
Recently, there has been an approach to provide sth. more complete, see whether this helps:
As for the local dev environment:
If you know your way around Linux (Actually, since Suite 8 now isn’t supporting Win server anymore, there is no way around Linux), simply install VirtualBox or virt-manager and install a standard Ubuntu 24 LTS there (no admin UI tools).
The installation is so easy, once the environment is the “correct one”.
