Upgrading Connectware (Docker)

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

• If you are running Connectware version 1.0.0 to below 1.5.0:

  1. First upgrade to version 1.5.0

  2. Then upgrade to version 1.7.0

  3. Finally upgrade to version 1.11.0 or later

• If you are running Connectware version 1.5.0 to below 1.7.0:

  1. First upgrade to version 1.7.0

  2. Then upgrade to version 1.11.0 or later

• If you are running Connectware version 1.7.0 to below 1.11.0:

  • You can directly upgrade to version 1.11.0 or later

For detailed instructions on each upgrade step, refer to:

• Upgrading Connectware to 1.11.0

• Upgrading Connectware to 1.7.0

• Upgrading Connectware from 1.x to 1.5.0

• 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>
