Manual updating for custom cases
💡 Use these instructions if you installed Passwork manually on Linux or Windows Server
Make a copy of the folder with the Passwork files. In case of any problems, you can roll back to your version. Files are located in the directory:
- installation on Linux using an old Docker build — /server/sites/prod
- manual installation on Linux — /var/www
- manual installation on Windows — С:\inetpub\wwwroot\passwork
Rename the folder with Passwork, and create a new empty folder with the same name.
Make sure you have git installed. Go to the created empty folder and clone the repository:
💡 For a simple update you can use Password Setup tool for Windows Server
Sign in to your Passwork Customer Portal and download Passwork as a ZIP archive.
Copy the files from the folder <passwork>/app/keys/ from the old version to the new one.
Copy the file <passwork>/app/config/config.ini from the old version to the new one. Compare the <passwrok>/app/config/config.ini with the template config <passwork>/app/config/config.example.ini. Perhaps the new version has additional settings.
IIS can reset Rewrite rules (if you delete and load .htaccess file). Check your rewrite rules. If they are empty then repeat importing the rule like it's described in the manual.
