Note: If your server runs on OpenLiteSpeed, RunCloud does not handle PHP version updates. However, once a PHP version update becomes available for OpenLiteSpeed, it should also be automatically available on your server(s).

Backup

• Improved: We've implemented a new queue system that will automatically manage backups on your server. At present, we've set a limit of a maximum of 3 concurrent backup processes per server. Occasionally, you may notice a PENDING/QUEUE status on your latest backup snapshot.
• Improved: A new retry mechanism has been introduced. Under certain circumstances, it will attempt to retry failed backup operations up to 3 times before marking them as failed. Occasionally, you may notice a RETRYING status on your latest backup snapshot.
• Improved: For new backup snapshots, a "finished at" date and time will now be shown when you hover over the backup snapshot's date and time. This feature provides an estimation of the duration of the backup process, from queuing to completion.

Cloudflare is currently experiencing issues with its dashboard and API (view status page).

We've deployed a hotfix to prevent our panel from throwing 500 errors due to the downtime with Cloudflare's API. However, the domains and DNS integration via Cloudflare will appear empty in your RunCloud dashboard as they rely on receiving responses from the Cloudflare API, which is currently unavailable.

Cloudflare is well aware of the issue and is working on getting to the bottom of it as soon as possible. They have a good reputation for handling infrastructure-related issues diligently, including proper post-mortems. 

On behalf of Cloudflare, thank you for your patience & we understand dealing with downtime is never easy. If any websites you host for others are affected, this would be a good time to send over an email to let them know if their sites are down proactively.
