Ah, the trials and tribulations of upgrading Debian 12 Bookworm to Debian 13 Trixie! I learned a valuable lesson this weekend with the update - always read the apt listchanges email. Always.
The upgrade itself went smoothly with no errors during the packages upgrading/installing. I run three main services on my server - nginx, exim, and dovecot. On reboot, all three had issues with the upgraded packages.
I received the following error in my nginx error.log:
Noticed these lines in journalctl when nginx didn’t start after a reboot:
Dec 10 17:43:30 mail1 nginx[3485]: nginx: [warn] "ssl_stapling" ignored, host not found in OCSP responder "ocsp.int-x3.letsencrypt.org" in the certificate "/etc/letsencrypt/live/www.example.com/fullchain.pem"

Hmmm…
