Introduction

In this article, we will go over the process of upgrading Yurbi to the latest released version.

Note: Yurbi must be installed prior to running the update script.

Before starting the upgrade, it's crucial to back up your Yurbi backend database, whether you are using PostgreSQL or MS SQL. This backup is essential in case you need to restore or roll back the upgrade. For assistance on how to back up your database, please refer to this article.

Step 1: Run the Upgrade Script

SSH into your Linux server as a root or root-equivalent user and run the following script:

curl -s https://f002.backblazeb2.com/file/5000fish/yurbi/linux/upgrade.sh | sudo bash

Step 2: Confirm Installation Directory

The first prompt will ask:

The default installation directory is /var/yurbi. Accept the default? [Y/n]:
  • Press Enter to accept the default installation directory.
  • If you have installed Yurbi in a non-standard directory, type 'n' and press Enter, then provide the correct directory path when prompted.

Step 3: Upgrade Process

After pressing Enter, the script will perform the upgrade steps.

Step 4: Verify Installation

Upon completion, you will see the following message:

Installation completed successfully. Please check the yurbi_upgrade.log file in the current directory for details.

To view the results and specific details of the upgrade, check the yurbi_upgrade.log file located in the directory where you ran the script.
