Update

Under Administration > Update you manage software updates for the calServer system. This section displays the current version and allows performing updates.


Version Information

The version display is based on Git tags and commits. A typical version identifier (e.g., 4.55.0-447-g717d263dd) consists of:

  • Release tag (4.55.0)
  • Number of commits since the tag (447)
  • Git commit hash (g717d263dd)

Update Process

Via the Web Interface

Under Administration > Informationen > Aenderungsuebersicht the following functions are available:

Action Description
Check for Updates Checks whether a newer software version is available.
Deploy Rolls out a prepared update.
Aendern Allows manual version changes.

Via the Command Line (Docker)

For on-premise installations, the update is performed using the provided shell scripts:

cd /var/calserver
./update.sh

  • Docker-based deployments require system access to the Docker daemon.
  • Create a backup before each update (see Backup).
  • After the update, a functional check of the most important modules is recommended.
