Withdraw of the 6.9.2 Release
Unfortunately, due to critical issues identified with version 6.9.2, we have decided to remove it and ensure it's no longer available for download. These issues impacted the ability to install or upgrade but none were security-related. We are diligently working to resolve these issues and are planning to release an updated version 6.9.3 in early May.
What if you've already upgraded?For customers who have already upgraded to 6.9.2, no immediate action is required, as none of these issues are security-related. Once it's available, you will still be able to upgrade to 6.9.3 as normal. We appreciate your patience and trust as we continue to enhance our software to better serve you. Thank you for your understanding.
Application - HAProxy Opspack
HAProxy is a free tool offering high availability, load balancing, and proxying for TCP and HTTP-based applications. Well-suited for high traffic websites, HAProxy has become the industry standard open-source load balancer and is often shipped with most mainstream Linux distributions as well as commonly deployed by default in cloud platforms.
Its mode of operation makes integration into existing architectures quite simple and keeps security in mind, ensuring that valuable web servers with private information are not exposed.
