## Upgrading
|
|
|
|
Before starting the upgrade, make sure that you have a working backup of your
|
|
database and image files. See our
|
|
[documentation](https://dev.lemmy.ml/docs/administration_backup_and_restore.html)
|
|
for backup instructions.
|
|
|
|
**With Ansible:**
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# deploy with ansible from your local lemmy git repo
|
|
git pull
|
|
cd ansible
|
|
ansible-playbook lemmy.yml
|
|
# connect via ssh to run the migration script
|
|
ssh your-server
|
|
cd /lemmy/
|
|
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/master/docker/prod/migrate-pictshare-to-pictrs.bash
|
|
chmod +x migrate-pictshare-to-pictrs.bash
|
|
sudo ./migrate-pictshare-to-pictrs.bash
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**With manual Docker installation:**
|
|
```
|
|
# run these commands on your server
|
|
cd /lemmy
|
|
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/master/ansible/templates/nginx.conf
|
|
# Replace the {{ vars }}
|
|
sudo mv nginx.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/lemmy.conf
|
|
sudo nginx -s reload
|
|
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/master/docker/prod/docker-compose.yml

|
|
chmod +x migrate-pictshare-to-pictrs.bash
|
|
sudo bash migrate-pictshare-to-pictrs.bash
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Note:** After upgrading, all users need to reload the page, then logout and
|
|
login again, so that images are loaded correctly.
