Migate Faffy (dev server) to Debian 12

Firefishy commented 2 months ago

The OpenStreetMap.org servers now run Debian 12. It is best if we also align the dev server to run Debian 12.

[x] Announce planned migration to existing dev server users.
[x] Offline move existing filesystem data to temporary folders.
[x] Install Debian 12 onto existing partitions without formatting partitions.
[x] Re-install chef and allow initial setup. May require some package tweaks.
[x] Move original /home back to correct location.
[x] Restore postgres databases + reindex.
[x] Restore mysql databases + reindex.
[x] Restore user cronjobs.
[x] Restore encrypted user passwords using chpasswd -e

I have BCC emailed all dev server users who have logged in over the last year notifying them about the change. I will email them again when the upgrade has been completed.

I said a likely date for the upgrade is 3rd or 4th September 2024.

Some of the reasons for the migration to Debian are captured here: https://github.com/openstreetmap/operations/issues/844

That should be fixed now.
