Upgrading Traccar

Upgrade steps:

  1. Back up the database.
  2. Back up the traccar.xml configuration file (if you have modified it).
  3. Back up the media folder (if it exists).
  4. Uninstall the previous version of Traccar.
  5. Install the new version of Traccar.
  6. Restore the media folder (if applicable).
  7. Restore the traccar.xml configuration file (if applicable).
  8. Start the Traccar service.

These instructions assume that only the main configuration file has been modified. If you have changed other files (for example, templates), re-apply those changes to the new version. Older templates may not be compatible with newer releases.
