novaBBS is currently being upgraded and is offline.

I'm not sure how long it will take, but it will be unavailable until complete.

So far, so good. novabbs is up and running on php8.2. This required an upgrade
from Debian 10 to 11 to 12.

The upgrade (using apt-get) did not upgrade to php8.2 sqlite3, so I had to install
that again manually.

No changes to rslight spool at all, just upgraded the code with debian-upgrade script.

There is one error in nginx log that does not show up on retroBBS (with same OS and
same code), and I do not immediately see what's wrong with it. The line of code showing
an error does not interfere with rslight operation at all, and the line works properly
even though the error shows.

This is a line that converts article dates to your timezone, which it does and it
works. I will keep digging into this, but it does not appear to cause any problem
with rslight operation.

Still seems fine. I made one error as one minor task in the spool needs to take place:
You need to delete the <group>-lastarticleinfo.dat files. Just, rm -- *lastarticleinfo.dat
should do it.

These files contain a serialized variable. In ver 0.7.2, the variable is stdClass, but in
0.8.0 the variable is array. The files will be recreated automatically.

I'm comfortable now to upgrade www.novabbs.com (main clearnet rslight install)
