* I removed the Update section from the OTP install and added it to updating.md * I also added a link to the updating.md from the OTP install page * I added a Questions section to the OTP install, similar to the debian_based_en.md * Restructured the updating.md a bit I would very much also like to link to the changelog, but I don't know how to do it because I can't find the page in the docs?

# Updating your instance
|
|
|
|
You should **always check the release notes/changelog** in case there are config deprecations, special update special update steps, etc.
|
|
|
|
Besides that, doing the following is generally enough:
|
|
|
|
## For OTP installations
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# Download the new release
|
|
su pleroma -s $SHELL -lc "./bin/pleroma_ctl update"
|
|
|
|
# Migrate the database, you are advised to stop the instance before doing that
|
|
su pleroma -s $SHELL -lc "./bin/pleroma_ctl migrate"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## For from source installations (using git)
|
|
|
|
1. Go to the working directory of Pleroma (default is `/opt/pleroma`)
|
|
2. Run `git pull`. This pulls the latest changes from upstream.
|
|
3. Run `mix deps.get`. This pulls in any new dependencies.
|
|
4. Stop the Pleroma service.
|
|
5. Run `mix ecto.migrate`[^1]. This task performs database migrations, if there were any.
|
|
6. Start the Pleroma service.
|
|
|
|
[^1]: Prefix with `MIX_ENV=prod` to run it using the production config file.
