Upgrading Connectware (Docker)

When upgrading your Connectware instance, follow the upgrade path based on your current version:

  • If you are on version 1.4.1 or below

    • Upgrade sequentially: 1.5.0 → 1.7.0 → 2.0.0 → 2.0.1

  • If you are between version 1.5.0 and 1.6.2

    • Upgrade sequentially: 1.7.0 → 2.0.0 → 2.0.1

  • If you are on version 1.7.0 or newer (but below 2.0.0)

    • Upgrade sequentially: 2.0.0 → 2.0.1

  • If you are on version 2.0.0

    • Upgrade directly to 2.0.1

Detailed instructions on each upgrade step

  • To upgrade your Connectware to a newer version, get the latest installer script by following the steps in the Prepare Installer Script chapter. When running the update, select your current Connectware installation directory.

The update will automatically preserve your existing configuration, including your license key and network settings. If you're prompted to enter a license key during the update, this usually means you have selected the wrong installation directory. In this case, cancel the update and verify you have chosen the correct path.

If you originally installed Connectware using sudo privileges, make sure to use sudo when running the update as well.

Downgrading to previous Connectware versions is not supported.

Upgrading Connectware in Silent Mode

The installer supports an automated deployment mode that requires no manual intervention. You can activate this by using either -s or --silent, and -d(directory) when running the installation script.

If you need to customize your installation, the script offers several configuration options. Run the installer with --help to view all available parameters.

Example

$ ./connectware-online-installer.sh -s -d <PATH/TO/YOUR/CONNECTWARE/FOLDER>
