Available versions: v16, v18, v20, v22 (default), v23 (soon will be replaced by v25) and v24.

Post-Update Notes
If, after the update, your Node.js, Python, or Ruby applications fail to start or behave unexpectedly, this may be due to changes in system libraries. Such applications may require reconfiguration or dependency updates.
You can find your web application error logs at:
~/domains/DOMAIN_NAME/logs/error.log
We recommend reviewing these logs if you encounter any issues.
If you experience problems after the update, please contact us directly through the ticket system available in the billing panel or via email at: help@hostuno.com
