Updating the container? #26

Closed zyxep closed 7 years ago

zyxep commented 7 years ago

Hey,

Simple question, to update my jira installation to newest version, do I just kill/stop the current container I have and then run the same docker run command but with newer version of your image?

The standard Atlassian upgrade procedure applies when using containers as well and you can look it up at the Atlassian documentation site.

But before you do anything

Ensure you have a backup of your JIRA home directory
Ensure you have a backup of your JIRA database

Then you can experiment by eg. starting a new container with a copy of the JIRA home backup

Ah ok, great. I did redo my setup a little, added volume for jira home dir & install dir since i have to update server.xml to tell it to use SSL :)

And my database is a PostgreSQL in the same network, so it sounds like an easy step to update, thanks.
