  1. Stop the cron tasks.

    crontab -e -uwww-data
    

    Note

  1. Stop all running consumers.

  2. Create backups of your database and source code.

  3. Pull the changes from the necessary branch (1.6) or tag (1.6.1) in the application repository (e.g. https://github.com/oroinc/orocrm-application.git) or download the latest OroCRM version from the download section on the oroinc.local/orocrm , unpack archive and overwrite existing system files.

    sudo -uwww-data git checkout <branch or tag with version to upgrade to>
    
  4. Upgrade the composer dependency and set up the right owner to the retrieved files.

    sudo -u www-data php composer.phar install --prefer-dist --no-dev

    sudo rm -rf public/js/*
    sudo rm -rf public/css/*
    
  6. Upgrade the platform.
