NGINX Updates

nginx-rc 1.27.1+7

What’s New

• Added new module ngx_http_auth_request_module

PHP Updates Now Available for NGINX

RunCloud now monitors NGINX, MariaDB, PHP-FPM, and Redis for unexpected issues and restarts them automatically.

Here's how it works: 

• Monitors services continuously and skips those you’ve stopped for maintenance
• Restarts failed services immediately
• Retries up to five times before giving up
• Sends you a notification if recovery fails so you can investigate

By default, Auto Healing is enabled on all servers – both new and existing – and can be turned off or fine-tuned under Server → Settings → Auto Healing Services. Learn more about Auto Healing here.

Note: Requires RunCloud Agent v2.13.0+7 or later.

We’ve upgraded the search across our documentation to use TypeSense – the same lightning-fast search engine now powering in-app search for servers, databases, and the RunCloud web app.

This means:

• Faster, more accurate results when searching for guides or troubleshooting steps
• Smarter keyword handling so you can find what you need even if you don’t type the exact phrase
• A consistent experience across the app and documentation – no need to adjust to different search behaviors

This change makes it even easier to find relevant support articles, feature documentation, and technical how-tos, whether you’re inside the app or browsing our help docs directly.

Let us know if there’s anything we can do to make search even better!
