Upgrade

This article describes how to upgrade your Coder server.

Caution

Prior to upgrading a production Coder deployment, take a database snapshot since Coder does not support rollbacks.

For upgrade recommendations and troubleshooting, see Upgrading Best Practices.

Reinstall Coder to upgrade

To upgrade your Coder server, reinstall Coder using your original method of install.

Coder install script

1. If you installed Coder using the install.sh script, re-run the below command on the host:

   curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh
   

2. If you're running Coder as a system service, you can restart it with systemctl:

   systemctl daemon-reload
   systemctl restart coder
   

Other upgrade methods

docker-compose

If you installed using docker-compose, run the below command to upgrade the Coder container:

docker-compose pull coder && docker-compose up -d coder

Kubernetes

See Upgrading Coder via Helm.

Coder AMI on AWS

1. Run the Coder installation script on the host:

   curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh
   

   The script will unpack the new coder binary version over the one currently installed.

2. Restart the Coder system process with systemctl:

   systemctl daemon-reload
   systemctl restart coder
   

Windows

Download the latest Windows installer or binary from GitHub releases, or upgrade from Winget.

winget install Coder.Coder
