Alex, 

I am really sorry for your loss, but you'll have to consider the amount of time 
you'll need to manually patch every CVE which might pop up in the future, as 
your 5+ years old distribution is no longer supported.

On top of that, it seems you're blaming others for issues which you are 
responsible for.. If you feel recompiling from the repo is too much of a 
hassle, you can either upgrade your OS, or ask Ubuntu to provide up to date 
PowerDNS packages.

Please keep one thread to one subject. You're now mixing 2, sorry 3 issues. 

DNSDist 1.5 is End Of Life.

For DoH, if you need to support multiple hostnames on the same dnsdist 
instance, I would try with a single cert with multiple SANs. DNSdist should 
serve it well, the clients should accept it. If it's still an issue in a recent 
and support dnsdist version, please show us your config, the full cert to help 
debugging.

There is no MySQL in dnsdist, so not sure what you try to do there?

If you want to update your dnsservers, which should be running only the dns 
infra and nothing else, and thus should be easily upgradeable, I would 
recommend:

- provision new hosts
- install Ubuntu 22.04 LTS on them
- install dnsdist 1.8 on them
