Upgrade Instructions

For Docker

1. Get the official image or checkout the code and build it locally
2. Stop all containers docker compose down
3. Start all containers docker compose up -d

For Bare Metal

1. Login as the mbin/kbin user: su mbin
2. Go to your repo cd /var/www/mbin
3. Get the new release: git fetch && git checkout v1.7.1-rc4
4. Run the update script: bash bin/post-upgrade.sh. If you get an error when running the db migrations you maybe have to stop your webserver, so nothing is trying to access the database.

6. flush your redis db by running redis-cli, type in AUTH [YOUR PASSWORD] and then FLUSHDB
7. clear your opcache by reloading php fpm systemctl reload php8.2-fpm (or for PHP 8.3: systemctl reload php8.3-fpm)
