You're a lifesaver. I have no idea why the official instructions are so broken.

Hi! Great video. Keep it up. Could u make a video showing of how to enable Letsencrypt ssl on the server?

[@mactech7459]

VERY helpful! Thank you.. gotta ask though, how did you come up with these commands? They differ a lot from what's shown in the official documentation.

You are right. Usually the documentation is a bit behind the latest OS/package changes which is frustrating... I just google, check the logs and try to find workarounds.

Hello. Thank you for your videos, the previous video updating the unifi controller was very helpful. After watching this video I have a question. I have Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS, unifi controller 7.3.83, can I update to the new version of controller 8, using Ubuntu 20.04.3? If yes, can I use the previous version of the update video? Thank you

Hi, I haven't tested that and can't say if it is going to be smooth because of dependencies. I really think that it's going to give you one or two errors because of mangoDB (maybe...) so 1. I would take a snapshot of the VM and then go for upgrade + backup the config of Unifi controller 2. Install fresh ubuntu 22.X (see the latest videos in my channel for how to) and install version 8 controller and import your config backup. Cheers!
