Upgrading from Debian Packages
The following instructions assume that you installed Manifold from a .deb file, and are updating that installation.
1. Download the most recent package
Shell into the server as root and download the most recent package.
On Ubuntu 16:
cd ~
curl -O https://storage.googleapis.com/manifold-dist/ubuntu16/manifold_5.1.3-1_amd64.deb
On Ubuntu 18:
cd ~
curl -O https://storage.googleapis.com/manifold-dist/ubuntu18/manifold_5.1.3-1_amd64.deb
2. Install the Package
dpkg -i manifold_5.1.3-1_amd64.deb
Because it contains all dependencies, the omnibus package is rather large. Updating with dpkg
will take a fair amount of time, so be patient and let the installer run.
3. Stop services and reconfigure
Stop all Manifold services with manifold-ctl stop
. Then run manifold-ctl reconfigure
to ensure that all configuration is current. Once that’s complete, you can restart the services with manifold-ctl start
.
/usr/local/bin/manifold-ctl stop
/usr/local/bin/manifold-ctl reconfigure
/usr/local/bin/manifold-ctl start
