Week of November 2, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This week fixes several ways deploys and restarts can send traffic to the wrong container or bring back a broken release, and makes source installs on arm64 hosts build for the right architecture. Path routing to non-web processes no longer needs a hand-written nginx.conf.sigil, and proxy health checks now follow app.json readiness.

This week: nginx can resolve upstreams via coredns-docker to avoid stale container IPs, new proxy:route commands for path routing to non-web processes, failed deploys keep the previous image restartable, source installs default to the host architecture, and stack is now per-build

This week in Dokku: nginx can resolve upstreams via coredns-docker so it stops routing to stale container IPs after reboots and restarts. New proxy:route:set, remove, clear, and report commands let you declare path-prefix routes to non-web Procfile processes without hand-writing nginx.conf.sigil. After a failed deploy, the previous image stays restartable for ps:restart, ps:start, and ps:restore. Source installs now default to the host architecture, so arm64 hosts build arm64 plugins. The stack property is split per builder, and proxy health checks now follow the first web readiness healthcheck in app.json.

Week of October 26, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This week brought a new datastore core plugin that puts every official datastore behind a single command, and a --no-cache option for ps:rebuild for one-off uncached builds. It also fixed multi-network attachment in attach-post-create and modernized bootstrap script output with timings and a log file. Two patch releases, v0.38.33 and v0.38.34, carried these changes.

Dokku updates: a datastore core plugin now serves every official datastore under one command, ps:rebuild gains --no-cache, attach-post-create now attaches every network in the list, and the bootstrap script shows per-step output and timings. v0.38.33 and v0.38.34 are out.

Post for LinkedIn

This week's Dokku changes: a new datastore core plugin serves every official datastore through one command, with the datastore type as the first argument. ps:rebuild now accepts --no-cache for a single uncached build regardless of builder, without persisting a setting for later deploys. attach-post-create now attaches every network in the list rather than only the first, matching attach-post-deploy. The bootstrap script shows each install step in Dokku log style with per-step timings, a timestamped log file under /var/log/dokku, and an end summary. Source installs gained a missing wget dependency, the dockerfile-start-cmd example now delimits flags with a double-dash, and herokuish and dokku-update were bumped. Releases v0.38.33 and v0.38.34 are available.

Week of October 19, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This week's changes mostly target deploy reliability: locks are released on exit, leftover extraction directories no longer break subsequent deploys, and concurrent setting updates no longer lose changes. Several fixes restore behavior that users depend on, including the haproxy letsencrypt integration, per-type resource clearing, and consistent memory unit handling across schedulers. A new release, v0.38.32, packages fixes including deploy lock handling and forced cleanup forwarding.

Dokku v0.38.32 is out. Deploy locks release on exit, failed deploys no longer leave stale extraction files behind, concurrent setting updates are serialized, resource clears only touch their own type, and haproxy letsencrypt works with current EasyHAProxy. Memory units like 1G an

Post for LinkedIn

Dokku v0.38.32 is out, with a set of fixes aimed at deploy reliability. Deploy locks are released and build records finalized whenever a deploy exits, and apps:lock now blocks as intended. Leftover extraction files from failed deploys are fully removed, so a stale scheduler-k3s kustomization directory no longer breaks the next deploy. Updates to app settings are serialized so concurrent commands no longer silently drop changes. resource:limit-clear and resource:reserve-clear now clear only their own resource type. The haproxy letsencrypt integration is fixed and EasyHAProxy is upgraded to 6.5.1. Memory values such as 1G, 512M and 1GiB are passed to docker unchanged with consistent binary units on the k3s scheduler, and nginx-proxy-http-version can be configured globally or per app.

Week of October 5, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This week improves cron scheduling by letting each entry have its own MAILTO, which matters for plugins that schedule tasks for specific resources like datastore backups. It also adds a community plugin for a web database IDE that connects to your services. Documentation link fixes make the docs easier to navigate.

This week: cron entries can set a per-entry MAILTO for tasks from plugins. Added LibreDB Studio to community plugins. Fixed doc anchors and bumped herokuish to 0.11.19.

Post for LinkedIn

This week in Dokku: cron entries now support a per-entry MAILTO address. That lets plugins like datastore backups schedule tasks and have their output mailed to the right place instead of only the global address. We also added the LibreDB Studio plugin to the community plugin list; it deploys a web database IDE and connects it to every postgres, mysql, mariadb, mongo and redis service on the host. On the docs side, we fixed broken internal anchors and links where headings had been renamed or moved. Finally, herokuish was bumped from 0.11.18 to 0.11.19.

Week of September 21, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

V0.38.31 fixes critical issues with command parsing consistency and storage attachment scoping that affected deploy and runtime behavior. The fixes for Procfile quoting and shell operators ensure commands behave predictably, while storage improvements prevent volumes from being mounted to unintended process types.

V0.38.31: Fixed Procfile quoting inconsistencies, storage attachment process type scoping, and node-sysctls reporting. Update via bootstrap script.

Dokku v0.38.31 is out. This release addresses Procfile command handling inconsistencies between deploy and runtime, ensures storage volumes respect their assigned process types, and improves node-sysctls configuration reporting. Upgrade via the bootstrap script.

Week of September 14, 2026

What shipped

Why it matters

This release focuses on fixing silent failures and improving reliability across multiple subsystems. Better error reporting in config operations, process scaling, and build output means issues surface immediately rather than causing cryptic failures downstream. Whole-set forms for storage and scheduler metadata reduce operational complexity when declaring infrastructure as code.

Dokku v0.38.28 released. Fixes for sudo-rs compatibility, config write failures, docker run exit codes, and adds whole-set forms for storage and k3s metadata. Ubuntu 26.04 LTS now supported.

Post for LinkedIn

Dokku v0.38.28 is out with improvements across reliability and usability. Config commands now report write failures, dokku run returns correct exit codes on k3s, and storage/metadata operations support whole-set forms for better infrastructure-as-code workflows. Bootstrap now supports Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, and sudo-rs compatibility is fixed.

Weeks with too little public activity are left out rather than filled in. Last updated 2026-11-09.
