Upgrading

Upgrade from 1.6.X

!!! warning "Read me first"

We often add new features and settings to BunkerWeb. We recommend you read the [settings](features.md) sections of the documentation or the GitHub releases to see what's new.

Procedure

  1. Backup the database:

    • Before proceeding with the database upgrade, ensure that you perform a complete backup of the current state of the database.
    • Use appropriate tools to backup the entire database, including data, schemas, and configurations.

    === "Docker"

     ```bash
     docker exec -it -e BACKUP_DIRECTORY=/path/to/backup/directory <scheduler_container> bwcli plugin backup save
     ```
    
     ```bash
     docker cp <scheduler_container>:/path/to/backup/directory /path/to/backup/directory
     ```
    

    === "Linux"

     !!! warning "Information for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8.10 users"
         If you are using **RHEL 8.10** and plan on using an **external database**, you will need to install the `mysql-community-client` package to ensure the `mysqldump` command is available. You can install the package by executing the following commands:
    
         === "MySQL/MariaDB"
    
             1. **Install the MySQL repository configuration package**
    
                 ```bash
                 sudo dnf install https://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql80-community-release-el8-9.noarch.rpm
                 ```
    
             2. **Enable the MySQL repository**
    
                 ```bash
                 sudo dnf config-manager --enable mysql80-community
                 ```
    
             3. **Install the MySQL client**
    
                 ```bash
                 sudo dnf install mysql-community-client
                 ```
    
         === "PostgreSQL"
    
             4. **Install the PostgreSQL repository configuration package**
    
                 ```bash
                 dnf install "https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/reporpms/EL-8-$(uname -m)/pgdg-redhat-repo-latest.noarch.rpm"
                 ```
    
             5. **Install the PostgreSQL client**
    
                 ```bash
                 dnf install postgresql<version>
                 ```
    
     ```bash
     BACKUP_DIRECTORY=/path/to/backup/directory bwcli plugin backup save
     ```
    
  2. Upgrade BunkerWeb:

    • Upgrade BunkerWeb to the latest version.

      === "Docker"

      1. **Update the Docker Compose file**: Update the Docker Compose file to use the new version of the BunkerWeb image.
          ```yaml
          services:
              bunkerweb:
                  image: bunkerity/bunkerweb:1.6.2
                  ...
              bw-scheduler:
                  image: bunkerity/bunkerweb-scheduler:1.6.2
                  ...
              bw-autoconf:
                  image: bunkerity/bunkerweb-autoconf:1.6.2
                  ...
              bw-ui:
                  image: bunkerity/bunkerweb-ui:1.6.2
                  ...
          ```
      
      2. **Restart the containers**: Restart the containers to apply the changes.
          ```bash
          docker compose down
          docker compose up -d
          ```
      

      === "Linux"

      3. **Stop the services**:
          ```bash
          sudo systemctl stop bunkerweb
          sudo systemctl stop bunkerweb-ui
          sudo systemctl stop bunkerweb-scheduler
          ```
      
      4. **Update BunkerWeb**:
      
          === "Debian/Ubuntu"
      
              First, if you have previously held the BunkerWeb package, unhold it :
      
              You can print a list of packages on hold with `apt-mark showhold`
      
              ```shell
              sudo apt-mark unhold bunkerweb nginx
              ```
      
              Then, you can update the BunkerWeb package :
      
              ```shell
              sudo apt update && \
              sudo apt install -y bunkerweb=1.6.2
              ```
      
              To prevent the BunkerWeb package from upgrading when executing `apt upgrade`, you can use the following command :
      
              ```shell
              sudo apt-mark hold bunkerweb nginx
              ```
      
              More details in the [integration Linux page](integrations.md#__tabbed_1_1).
      
          === "Fedora/RedHat"
      
              First, if you have previously held the BunkerWeb package, unhold it :
      
              You can print a list of packages on hold with `dnf versionlock list`
      
              ```shell
              sudo dnf versionlock delete package bunkerweb && \
              sudo dnf versionlock delete package nginx
              ```
      
              Then, you can update the BunkerWeb package :
      
              ```shell
              sudo dnf makecache && \
              sudo dnf install -y bunkerweb-1.6.2
              ```
      
              To prevent the BunkerWeb package from upgrading when executing `dnf upgrade`, you can use the following command :
      
              ```shell
              sudo dnf versionlock add bunkerweb && \
              sudo dnf versionlock add nginx
              ```
      
              More details in the [integration Linux page](integrations.md#__tabbed_1_3).
      
      5. **Start the services**:
              ```bash
              sudo systemctl start bunkerweb
              sudo systemctl start bunkerweb-ui
              sudo systemctl start bunkerweb-scheduler
              ```
              Or reboot the system:
              ```bash
              sudo reboot
              ```
      
  3. Check the logs: Check the logs of the scheduler service to ensure that the migration was successful.

    === "Docker"

     ```bash
     docker compose logs <scheduler_container>
     ```
    

    === "Linux"

     ```bash
     journalctl -u bunkerweb --no-pager
     ```
    
  4. Verify the database: Verify that the database upgrade was successful by checking the data and configurations in the new database container.

Rollback

!!! failure "In case of issues"

If you encounter any issues during the upgrade, you can rollback to the previous version of the database by restoring the backup taken in [step 1](#__tabbed_1_1).

Upgrade from 1.5.X

What changed?

Scheduler

Unlike the 1.5.X releases, the Scheduler service no longer uses the docker socket proxy to fetch BunkerWeb's instances. Instead, it uses the new BUNKERWEB_INSTANCES environment variable.

!!! info "About the BUNKERWEB_INSTANCES environment variable"

This new variable is a list of BunkerWeb instances separated by spaces in this format: `http://bunkerweb:5000 bunkerweb1:5000 bunkerweb2:5000 ...`. The scheduler will then use this list to fetch the instances' configuration and to send the configuration to them.

* The `http://` prefix is optional.
* The port is optional and defaults to the value of the `API_HTTP_PORT` environment variable.
* The default value of the `BUNKERWEB_INSTANCES` environment variable is `127.0.0.1`.

In other words, the new system is fully agnostic and generic: the scheduler is in charge of managing a list of BunkerWeb instances and doesn't need to care about the environment.

!!! tip "Autoconf/Kubernetes/Swarm integrations"

If you are using the `Autoconf`, `Kubernetes`, or `Swarm` integrations, you can set the `BUNKERWEB_INSTANCES` environment variable to an empty string (so that it doesn't try to send the configuration to the default one which is `127.0.0.1`).

**The instances will be automatically fetched by the controller**. You can also add custom instances to the list that may not be picked up by the controller.

Since the 1.6, the Scheduler also have a new built-in healthcheck system, that will check the health of the instances. If an instance becomes unhealthy, the scheduler will stop sending the configuration to it. If the instance becomes healthy again, the scheduler will start sending the configuration to it again.

BunkerWeb container

Another important change is that the settings that were previously declared on the BunkerWeb container are now declared on the scheduler. This means that you'll have to move your settings from the BunkerWeb container to the Scheduler container.

While the settings are now declared on the Scheduler container, you'll still need to declare api related mandatory settings on the BunkerWeb container like the API_WHITELIST_IP setting which is used to whitelist the Scheduler's IP address, so that it can send the configuration to the instance.

!!! warning "BunkerWeb's container settings"

Every API related setting that you declare on the BunkerWeb container **have to be mirrored on the Scheduler container** so that it keeps working, as the configuration will be overwritten by the Scheduler's generated configuration.

Default values and new settings

We tried our best not to change default value but we have added many other settings. It's highly recommended to read the security tuning and settings sections of the documentation.

Templates

We added a new feature called templates. Templates provide a structured and standardized approach to defining settings and custom configurations, check the concepts/templates section for more information.

Autoconf namespaces

We added a namespace feature to the autoconf integrations. Namespaces allow you to group your instances and apply settings only to them. Check the following sections according to your Integration for more information:

          ```bash
          docker compose down
          docker compose up -d
          ```
      

      === "Linux"

      3. **Stop the services**:
          ```bash
          sudo systemctl stop bunkerweb
          sudo systemctl stop bunkerweb-ui
          ```
      
      4. **Update BunkerWeb**:
      
          === "Debian/Ubuntu"
      
              First, if you have previously held the BunkerWeb package, unhold it :
      
              You can print a list of packages on hold with `apt-mark showhold`
      
              ```shell
              sudo apt-mark unhold bunkerweb nginx
              ```
      
              Then, you can update the BunkerWeb package :
      
              ```shell
              sudo apt update && \
              sudo apt install -y bunkerweb=1.6.2
              ```
      
              To prevent the BunkerWeb package from upgrading when executing `apt upgrade`, you can use the following command :
      
              ```shell
              sudo apt-mark hold bunkerweb nginx
              ```
      
              More details in the [integration Linux page](integrations.md#__tabbed_1_1).
      
          === "Fedora/RedHat"
      
              First, if you have previously held the BunkerWeb package, unhold it :
      
              You can print a list of packages on hold with `dnf versionlock list`
      
              ```shell
              sudo dnf versionlock delete package bunkerweb && \
              sudo dnf versionlock delete package nginx
              ```
      
              Then, you can update the BunkerWeb package :
      
              ```shell
              sudo dnf makecache && \
              sudo dnf install -y bunkerweb-1.6.2
              ```
      
              To prevent the BunkerWeb package from upgrading when executing `dnf upgrade`, you can use the following command :
      
              ```shell
              sudo dnf versionlock add bunkerweb && \
              sudo dnf versionlock add nginx
              ```
      
              More details in the [integration Linux page](integrations.md#__tabbed_1_3).
      
      5. **Start the services**:
              ```bash
              sudo systemctl start bunkerweb
              sudo systemctl start bunkerweb-ui
              ```
              Or reboot the system:
              ```bash
              sudo reboot
              ```
      
  3. Check the logs: Check the logs of the scheduler service to ensure that the migration was successful.

    === "Docker"

     ```bash
     docker compose logs <scheduler_container>
     ```
    

    === "Linux"

     ```bash
     journalctl -u bunkerweb --no-pager
     ```
    
  4. Verify the database: Verify that the database upgrade was successful by checking the data and configurations in the new database container.

Rollback

!!! failure "In case of issues"

If you encounter any issues during the upgrade, you can rollback to the previous version of the database by restoring the backup taken in [step 1](#__tabbed_1_1).
