Managed Server Version 5: remove global nginx config for TYPO3 secure_downloads extension, scheduled 7 years ago

We have removed the following location from our global nginx configuration:

location ~* "(^|/)(typo3(conf)?(/.*|)/(private|tests|build)|secure_[^/]+|(?!css_secure)[^/]*_secure|\.)/" {
  deny all;
}

The configuration was originally created for the TYPO3 extension secure_downloads, but was never documented. As we ran into some problems with other applications, and this setting was required for a very limited number of sites, we decided to remove it altogether. We talked to all affected customers already and applied custom configurations on every affected website.

As of now, please add corresponding deny rules within the local configuration if you want to protect a certain directory.

Managed Server Version 5: Optimize settings for php72 type

After using the php72 type for a few weeks, we discovered several areas for improvement:

enable PATH, TMP, TMPDIR and TEMP environment variables which are good practice and required for some applications (e.g. Nextcloud)
enable APCu extension
enable opcache.enable_cli
change opcache.memory_consumption from 128M to 128

Managed Server Version 5: ajust PHP binary path for wordpress70 cronjobs

By now, the cronjob definition of our wordpress70 type used the same configuration as the wordpress type. This had led to the usage of PHP 5.6 for wordpress70 cronjobs on servers where this version was installed due to other websites, while the cronjob did not run altogether on any other systems.

This change implements a dedicated cron configuration for the wordpress70 type with the correct PHP version.

Managed Server Version 5: msmtp use tls if available, scheduled 7 years ago

We have updated the msmtp module: The msmtp mail-agent now uses TLS encryption for outgoing messages to our mailrelay. If your own mailrelay does not support TLS you can disable this feature with "msmtp::tls": "off" (We have checked all installations and set the option, if necessary).
