Important Notice

On update to this Portainer version, stacks and edge stacks will have their containers restarted after updating them. This is caused by the use of Docker Compose 2.26.1, which requires this restart. Note: If you already updated to 2.20.0, 2.20.1 or 2.20.2 previously, stacks and edge stacks that DO NOT use relative paths may already have had their containers restarted on update of them, and you would not then see a restart again.

Release 2.20.0

March 19, 2024

Overview of changes

Introducing the new Portainer BE 2.20.0 release. This is an STS (Short-Term Support) release.

As you gear up for the transition to Portainer BE 2.20.0, our latest STS (Short-Term Support) installment, ensuring a smooth upgrade is key. We urge you to back up your configurations via the Portainer UI beforehand. This backup acts as your safety net, ensuring you can gracefully revert to the prior version or state if the new frontier proves too wild. Additionally, pore over the release notes for catching any compatibility issues, understanding deprecated functionalities, and identifying essential tweaks to your current setup. Your diligence will pave the way for a seamless update.

A Short-Term Support release can be considered as "bleeding-edge" as it will contain the latest features and functionality we've developed. The STS releases (including this one) will go through a significant amount of pre-release testing, but there may be changes that could cause regressions and features that might see further iterations. As such, if stability is a crucial concern for your setup we wouldn't recommend deploying STS releases on production environments.

Read more in our "Portainer 2.20 STS" blog post.

Release 2.18.2

May 1, 2023

Upgrade notice

  • Users upgrading from 2.16.x should note that a bug was introduced then which prevented enforcing of TLS verifications. This has now been fixed but, in circumstances where certificates were not set up correctly and appeared to work due to the bug, you may now need to resolve the certificate issue or deliberately set the new ‘Skip verification’ toggle.

Edge

  • Fixed issue where users were unable to update their Edge Agent to the latest version because the corresponding option was not available when creating a scheduled update

Kubernetes

  • Increased potential success rate of updating Portainer with larger databases by changing Kubernetes manifest and Helm chart for Portainer to have initialDelaySeconds of 45 (sec) and failureThreshold of 3. portainer/portainer#8860

Upgrade notice

  • Since release 2.17.x we have added the ability to upgrade Edge Agents from Portainer when running on Docker Standalone / Docker Swarm / Nomad. Before using this feature we strongly advise to test this on a non-production environment first and have an alternative method available to connect to the Edge Device.

  • Any clusters connected to Portainer of version 1.23 Kubernetes and above will have their Pod Security Policies (if they have any and are using the pod security constraints feature) updated to the Pod Security Standards

  • Renamed AEEC to "Auto onboarding" for better user understanding

Kubernetes

  • Introduced a new feature to allow creating of a MicroK8s Kubernetes cluster on existing machines.

  • Improved performance of Kubernetes screens by adjusting rate limiting of Kubernetes go client. portainer/portainer#8682

  • Fixed an issue when provisioning a Civo Kubernetes cluster with the Kubernetes version left as the latest, due to Civo introducing Talos as a new Kubernetes cluster type (instead of K3s on Alpine) which then only applied to the latest Kubernetes version.

  • Improved Kubernetes Applications page performance by introducing a namespace filter. portainer/portainer#8637

  • Improved Kubernetes Dashboard page performance. portainer/portainer#8635

  • Updated the pod security constraints feature to use newer OPA Gatekeeper 2.9 and moved the feature away from using Pod Security Policy resources with Kubernetes clusters of 1.23 and above (as they are now removed in Kubernetes 1.25 and above).

  • Added migration to ensure existing pod security constraints work on environments with new Pod Security Standards of updated OPA Gatekeeper 2.9. This includes migrating edge environments on post-upgrade connect that may occur on clicking into via Homepage.

  • Resolved an issue where pod security constraints were not being enforced (since 2.16).

Docker

  • Fixed issue where users are not able to re-create container with multiple networks

  • Fixed issue where actions icon under edit edge stack page is not consistent

Kubernetes

  • Introduced new log viewer to Portainer Business Edition

  • Introduced the ability to edit the YAML manifest of Kubernetes objects and apply the changes via the Kubernetes patch function

  • Introduced global and cluster-level options to allow enforcing of code-based deployment of Kubernetes objects, preventing the use of Portainer forms and other less easy-to-repeat workflows

  • Introduced a new setting in the Cluster setup screen of a Kubernetes environment to allow enforcing of admin-only deploying of ingresses

  • Introduced the ability to specify updates to existing environment variables of a deployment via query string parameters on the Kubernetes application redeploy webhook

  • Added a rolling restart button to the Kube application UI

  • Introduced a new rollout-restart parameter to Kube application redeploy webhooks to allow remote initiating of zero-downtime deployment rolling restarts

  • Introduced an alternate means of authenticating connections to the Google Cloud platform (used by our KaaS provisioning of Google Kubernetes Engine environments), following their deprecation of the gcp auth plugin in Kubernetes v1.22 and removal in v1.26

  • Introduced experimental Kubernetes functionality (behind a feature flag) to allow installing of MicroK8s to existing machines

  • The Kubernetes deployment option for docker-compose format manifests and the Kompose conversion tool that enabled this have now been removed due to long-standing Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) in Kompose: portainer/portainer#8355

  • Improved the explanatory tooltips and info text for Kube application automatic updates functionality: portainer/portainer#8223

  • Updated Kubernetes as a Service (KaaS) cluster provisioning to use the latest eksctl tool for the AWS EKS platform, and support up to v1.23 of Kubernetes (use of this version was previously failing)

  • Resolved an issue where Kubernetes secrets were no longer shown in an expand panel for each application listed in the Applications list screen: portainer/portainer#8118

  • Improved config setting defaults when connecting clusters: ingress controllers (with a class) are auto detected/set as allowed, metrics API features setting is on (if metrics server is deployed), and storage classes with the 'default' annotation are on: portainer/portainer#8240

  • The Kubernetes Operator role is not intended to have secrets update permission and hence, as a security consideration, this permission is now removed from Portainer

  • Corrected the look of the fallback icon used for Helm charts that don't have their own icon: portainer/portainer#8116

  • Made a change to default the resource quota's resource assignment setting to off for new Kubernetes namespaces but always show the toggle (although it can be disabled for change if the cluster's (BE only) allow over-commit setting is off): portainer/portainer#8122

  • In the Kubernetes Add ingress screen, corrected the namespace selection dropdown to only show those that the user has access to: portainer/portainer#8150

  • Resolved an issue that was causing an 'Unable to get k8s environment access' error on deleting of a Kubernetes edge environment

  • When connecting a Kubernetes environment to Portainer via kubeconfig import, stop deleting of any extant 'portainer' namespace in the cluster

  • When using Kubernetes (KaaS) cluster provisioning and choosing the Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) option, only node size options that are valid for provisioning now show. Previously, there was at least one option which gave an error on use

  • Resolved two scenarios where importing of the kubeconfig of a Kubernetes cluster raised an error that caused a stuck 'Deploying' status

  • In Kube Create namespace and Namespace details screens, made the resource assignment toggle always visible - even when the cluster's resource over-commit option is off (when it will show but be disabled for change)

  • Fixed an issue introduced in 2.16, where deploying of an ingress via the Portainer Add ingress form does not label the ingress object in the cluster with a Portainer 'internal' deployment label. Any deployment of ingress via Portainer should have this: portainer/portainer#8337

  • Fixed an issue introduced in 2.16, where, when attaching a ConfigMap to an application being deployed via the Portainer Add application form, the ConfigMap is wrongly included as a Secret in the manifest and the deployment could therefore fail: portainer/portainer#8323

  • Fixed an incorrect mention in the UI of a 'docker-compose file' which was showing when editing a Kube application deployed from git: portainer/portainer#8228

React migration

  • Migrated from Angular to React: Tag selector for Environment Details view.

  • Migrated from Angular to React: Teams view.

Kubernetes

  • When upgrading to 2.16, if you already have ingress controllers in a Kubernetes cluster/environment linked to Portainer and used Portainer to set them at the cluster and namespace level, and if these ingress controllers were not used by any ingresses, after the upgrade, you may end up with dummy ingresses visible in the new Ingresses screen in Portainer (that are not actually used for any deployment). This is simply an artifact of how we retained information about ingress controllers in earlier Portainer releases. If you find these kinds of dummy ingresses, you can safely delete them.

  • Introduced the ability to auto-detect ingress classes in the environment. portainer/portainer#7827

  • Added an Ingress menu option in the sidebar that lists all Ingresses in the cluster. portainer/portainer#7839
