How to Manually Upgrade Dokploy?

[GuangYiDing]

Hi Dokploy Team,

First of all, thank you for creating and maintaining such an amazing open-source project! Dokploy has been incredibly helpful for simplifying application and database deployments.

I’m currently using Dokploy and would like to upgrade to the latest version. However, due to certain constraints, I’m unable to use the automatic upgrade feature. Could you please provide guidance on how to manually upgrade Dokploy? Specifically:

1.Are there any documented steps or procedures for manual upgrades?
2.Are there any dependencies or configurations that need to be updated alongside the core files?
3.Are there any potential pitfalls or common issues to watch out for during the manual upgrade process?

Your assistance would be greatly appreciated, and thank you again for your hard work and dedication to this project!

Hi!

Yes, certainly there's no documentation about this, but you can upgrade manually in the terminal of your server:

curl -sSL https://dokploy.com/install.sh | sh -s update

Here's the script https://github.com/Dokploy/website/blob/main/apps/website/public/install.sh#L165
2. Each new update includes everything needed to run so you don't have to download anything.
3. It is always likely, but the process used in step 1 is almost exactly the same as the one used in the UI, so if it fails in the terminal it will probably fail in the UI, but you shouldn't have any problems, just when you do the update be patience and it will work for you.
