Additional Setup ‐ Update or downgrade - MarechJ/hll_rcon_tool GitHub Wiki

🧭 You are here : Wiki home / Additional Setup / Update or downgrade

[!CAUTION] Sometimes, update and downgrade instructions vary from standard.
Join the CRCON Discord and follow the announcements channel.

If you are updating from an legacy (older) version, you should review the announcements in order and make any non-standard changes in order.

0. Enter an SSH session on your VPS

See this guide to get into a SSH terminal prompt.

[!NOTE] We'll assume you have installed CRCON in its default /root/hll_rcon_tool folder, following the installation guide.
Adapt the commands given below if necessary.

1. Update

Normal (most) updates

Here we'll use git. If you don't want to use it, you can download the latest release in .zip format and install CRCON manually, but this is NOT recommended.

Pull the changes from github

cd /root/hll_rcon_tool
git fetch --tags

Check out a tagged release
You'll find the current version numbers to use in the git checkout command on the Releases Tags page
```
git checkout v11.1.0
```

[!NOTE] If you get git error messages, you have to resolve issues to be allowed to upgrade.
(Unless you have manually modifified files, this should never happen).
See this Common issues question.

Pull Docker images
```
docker compose pull
```
Restart
```
docker compose up -d --remove-orphans
```

2. Downgrade to a previous version

Check the available versions numbers :
- on Docker hub : https://hub.docker.com/r/cericmathey/hll_rcon_tool/tags
- on Github's Releases Tags page https://github.com/MarechJ/hll_rcon_tool/tags
Edit your .env file and change TAGGED_VERSION parameter value from latest to a specific tagged release
(it must match the release tag you've find either on Docker hub or Github):
```
TAGGED_VERSION=v11.1.0
```
Pull Docker images
```
docker compose pull
```
Restart
```
docker compose up -d --remove-orphans
```
