Upgrading from Mayan EDMS 3.5.x¶
Important
Supervisord must be upgraded to version 4.2.2. See troubleshooting section: After upgrade to version 4.1
Stop supervisord:
sudo systemctl stop supervisor
Make a backup of your supervisord file:
sudo cp /etc/supervisor/conf.d/mayan-edms.conf /etc/supervisor/conf.d/mayan-edms.conf.bck
Make a backup of your database:
Use the respective backup command for the database:
Upgrade to the latest pip version:
sudo --user=mayan /opt/mayan-edms/bin/pip install --upgrade pip
Remove deprecated requirements:
sudo --user=mayan curl https://gitlab.com/mayan-edms/mayan-edms/raw/master/removals.txt --output /tmp/removals.txt \ && sudo --user=mayan /opt/mayan-edms/bin/pip uninstall --requirement /tmp/removals.txt --yes
Update the Mayan EDMS Python package:
sudo --user=mayan /opt/mayan-edms/bin/pip install mayan-edms==4.4.7
the requirements will also be updated automatically.
Update the Redis configuration to serve at least 3 databases:

Restart Redis for the changes to take effect:
sudo systemctl restart redis
Edit the config file at
/opt/mayan-edms/media/config.yml
