v2.5.1

Description

Hi CloudPanel Team,

I’d like to request support for MySQL 8.4 in CloudPanel.

With MySQL 8.4 now being the official Long-Term Support (LTS) version from Oracle, it offers enhanced stability, security, and performance. Many modern applications are starting to require MySQL 8.4 as the minimum supported version.

For example, Moodle's latest versions no longer support MySQL 8.0 and require at least MySQL 8.4. This makes it difficult to host Moodle-based platforms on CloudPanel without native support for the newer version.

Use Case: We are deploying updated versions of Moodle and other applications that require MySQL 8.4. Having native support in CloudPanel would streamline development and production setup.

We’d appreciate this version being added to the supported database list in CloudPanel.

Thank you for your excellent work!

Best regards,
Justinol

How to reproduce

Install the latest version of CloudPanel.

Try deploying Moodle (v5.0 or later).

Notice that the installer fails or shows errors due to MySQL 8.0 not meeting the minimum version requirement (8.4).

Attempting to install MySQL 8.4 manually may conflict with CloudPanel’s package and service management.

Possible Solution

Add MySQL 8.4 to the list of supported database versions within CloudPanel.

Provide installation and service management support for MySQL 8.4, similar to how current MySQL versions are handled.

Optionally allow users to select between MySQL 8.0 and 8.4 during database setup via the UI or CLI.

Additional Context
