Requirements for installing Server Pro and Community Edition
We strongly recommend you run Server Pro on a recent and stable version of Ubuntu (e.g. Ubuntu 24.04 in 2025–2026) with a recent version of Docker. Running Server Pro on other systems is possible, but will make it much harder for us to offer support for non-default Ubuntu/Docker setups. We also cannot offer support for problems with Docker itself.
