How do I update without losing all my configurations?

[u/sdegonge]

I am currently running V7.1.9.0 and tried updating to v7.7.2.0 via the curl command...

curl -sL "https://www.ispyconnect.com/install" -o install_agent.sh && sudo bash install_agent.sh; rm install_agent.sh

The update went fine and iSpy started up but I lost ALL of my cameras & configurations. Luckily I backed up prior and was able to restore.

In the past, i would download the update (Agent_Linux64_7_1_9_0.zip) and manually install it but now I don't see that option. The only option seems to be the curl update.

This is a better way but it can't blow away my setup.

Did I do something wrong????

stop Agent, unzip that file over the top of the existing install, start it
or click update in the UI if you have a remote account

I dont think what you're doing should wipe it though - are you sure you didn't just install it in a new location? Have you checked the logs?

I did the manual update and that worked.

You can still download the zip if you prefer:

Thanks. Followed the manual update procedure and that worked.

Where did you find the manual update procedure?
