<div class="admonition note">
<p class="first admonition-title">Note</p>
<p class="last">If you have installed ownCloud from a repository, your package management should take care of it. Probably you will need to look for compatible third party applications yourself. <strong>Always do backups anyway.</strong></p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="update">
<h2>Update<a class="headerlink" href="#update" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>Updating means updating ownCloud to the latest <em>point release</em>, e.g. ownCloud 4.0.6 → 4.0.7. This procedure uses the ownCloud updater plugin called &#8220;Updater&#8221;: it&#8217;s an internal application already present in your ownCloud installation.</p>
<p>To update ownCloud, follow those steps:</p>
<ol class="arabic simple">
<li>Make a backup of the ownCloud folder and the database.</li>
<li>Make sure that updater plugin is enabled.</li>
<li>Navigate to the &#8216;Admin&#8217; page.</li>
<li>Click &#8216;Update&#8217;.</li>
<li>Refresh the page with Ctrl+F5.</li>
</ol>
<p>If this procedure doesn&#8217;t work (for example, ownCloud 5.0.10 doesn&#8217;t show new any new version) you could try to perform a full upgrade to update to the lastest point release (see below).</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="upgrade">
<h2>Upgrade<a class="headerlink" href="#upgrade" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>Upgrade is to bring an ownCloud instance to a new <em>major release</em>, e.g.
ownCloud 4.0.7 → 4.5.0. Always do backups anyway.</p>
<p>To upgrade ownCloud, follow those steps:</p>
<ol class="arabic">
<li><p class="first">Make sure that you ran the latest point release of the major ownCloud
version, e.g. 4.0.7 in the 4.0 series. If not, update to that version first
(see above).</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">Make a backup of the ownCloud folder and the database.</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">Download the latest version to the working directory:</p>
<blockquote>
<div><p>wget <a class="reference external" href="http://download.owncloud.org/community/owncloud-latest.tar.bz2">http://download.owncloud.org/community/owncloud-latest.tar.bz2</a></p>
</div></blockquote>
</li>
<li><p class="first">Deactivate all third party applications.</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">Delete everything from your ownCloud installation directory, except data and
config. Assuming that it&#8217;s your working directory, you could execute this command:</p>
<blockquote>
<div><p>ls | grep -v &#8216;(data)|(config)&#8217; | xargs rm -r</p>
</div></blockquote>
</li>
<li><p class="first">Unpack the release tarball in the owncloud directory (or copy the
files thereto). Assuming that your installation directory is called &#8216;owncloud&#8217; and that it&#8217;s inside your working directory, you could execute this command:</p>
<blockquote>
<div><p>tar xfj owncloud-latest.tar.bz2</p>
</div></blockquote>
</li>
<li><p class="first">With the next page request the update procedures will run.</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">If you had 3rd party applications, check if they provide versions compatible
with the new release. If so, install and enable them, update procedures will run if needed.</p>
</li>
</ol>
