# From 8.10 to 8.11
Make sure you view this update guide from the tag (version) of GitLab you would
like to install. In most cases this should be the highest numbered production
tag (without rc in it). You can select the tag in the version dropdown at the
top left corner of GitLab (below the menu bar).
If the highest number stable branch is unclear please check the
[GitLab Blog ](https://about.gitlab.com/blog/archives.html ) for installation
guide links by version.
### 1. Stop server
sudo service gitlab stop
### 2. Backup
```bash
cd /home/git/gitlab
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:create RAILS_ENV=production
```

### 3. Update Ruby
2016-09-30 14:37:42 +00:00
We will continue supporting Ruby < 2.3 for the time being but we recommend you
upgrade to Ruby 2.3 if you're running a source installation, as this is the same
version that ships with our Omnibus package.
2016-08-22 16:00:01 +00:00
You can check which version you are running with `ruby -v` .
Download and compile Ruby:

### 6. Update gitlab-workhorse
2016-07-28 09:57:01 +00:00
Install and compile gitlab-workhorse. This requires
[Go 1.5 ](https://golang.org/dl ) which should already be on your system from
GitLab 8.1.
```bash
cd /home/git/gitlab-workhorse
sudo -u git -H git fetch --all
2016-08-26 07:24:13 +00:00
sudo -u git -H git checkout v0.7.11
2016-07-28 09:57:01 +00:00
sudo -u git -H make
```
2016-08-22 16:00:01 +00:00
### 7. Install libs, migrations, etc.
2016-07-28 09:57:01 +00:00
```bash
cd /home/git/gitlab
# MySQL installations (note: the line below states '--without postgres')
sudo -u git -H bundle install --without postgres development test --deployment
# PostgreSQL installations (note: the line below states '--without mysql')
sudo -u git -H bundle install --without mysql development test --deployment
# Optional: clean up old gems
sudo -u git -H bundle clean
# Run database migrations
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
# Clean up assets and cache
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake assets:clean assets:precompile cache:clear RAILS_ENV=production
```
2016-08-22 16:00:01 +00:00
### 8. Update configuration files
2016-07-28 09:57:01 +00:00
#### New configuration options for `gitlab.yml`
2017-02-15 18:27:40 +00:00
There are new configuration options available for [`gitlab.yml`][yaml]. View them with the command below and apply them manually to your current `gitlab.yml` :
2016-07-28 09:57:01 +00:00
```sh
git diff origin/8-10-stable:config/gitlab.yml.example origin/8-11-stable:config/gitlab.yml.example
```
#### Nginx configuration
Ensure you're still up-to-date with the latest NGINX configuration changes:
```sh
# For HTTPS configurations
git diff origin/8-10-stable:lib/support/nginx/gitlab-ssl origin/8-11-stable:lib/support/nginx/gitlab-ssl
# For HTTP configurations
git diff origin/8-10-stable:lib/support/nginx/gitlab origin/8-11-stable:lib/support/nginx/gitlab
```
If you are using Apache instead of NGINX please see the updated [Apache templates].
Also note that because Apache does not support upstreams behind Unix sockets you
will need to let gitlab-workhorse listen on a TCP port. You can do this
via [/etc/default/gitlab].
[Apache templates]: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-recipes/tree/master/web-server/apache
[/etc/default/gitlab]: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/8-11-stable/lib/support/init.d/gitlab.default.example#L38
#### SMTP configuration
If you're installing from source and use SMTP to deliver mail, you will need to add the following line
to config/initializers/smtp_settings.rb:
```ruby
ActionMailer::Base.delivery_method = :smtp
```
See [smtp_settings.rb.sample] as an example.
[smtp_settings.rb.sample]: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/8-11-stable/config/initializers/smtp_settings.rb.sample#L13?
#### Init script
Ensure you're still up-to-date with the latest init script changes:
sudo cp lib/support/init.d/gitlab /etc/init.d/gitlab
2016-10-04 07:51:25 +00:00
For Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS:
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
2016-07-28 09:57:01 +00:00
2016-08-22 16:00:01 +00:00
### 9. Start application
2016-07-28 09:57:01 +00:00
sudo service gitlab start
sudo service nginx restart
2016-08-22 16:00:01 +00:00
### 10. Check application status
2016-07-28 09:57:01 +00:00
Check if GitLab and its environment are configured correctly:
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:env:info RAILS_ENV=production
To make sure you didn't miss anything run a more thorough check:
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:check RAILS_ENV=production
If all items are green, then congratulations, the upgrade is complete!
## Things went south? Revert to previous version (8.10)
### 1. Revert the code to the previous version
Follow the [upgrade guide from 8.9 to 8.10 ](8.9-to-8.10.md ), except for the
database migration (the backup is already migrated to the previous version).
### 2. Restore from the backup
```bash
cd /home/git/gitlab
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:restore RAILS_ENV=production
```
If you have more than one backup `*.tar` file(s) please add `BACKUP=timestamp_of_backup` to the command above.
