Before updating Zammad, we strongly recommend to take a look at our release notes. You can find information about features and fixes as well as technical remarks and breaking changes.

Be aware that you should not skip major Zammad versions while updating. That means, for example, your upgrade path from version 2.4 to 5.1 (assuming this is the current stable) would be: 2.4 → 3.0 → 4.0 → 5.0 → latest stable (5.1)

Stop Zammad

systemctl stop zammad

Update package lists:

apt update

Additional Steps

Updating Elasticsearch may be relevant, too. Make sure to have a supported version of Elasticsearch installed (see package installation for supported versions).

If you have to update Elasticsearch, please have a look at their documentation and follow the instructions.

In case your are using plugins for Elasticsearch, make sure they are updated as well (note: starting with Elasticsearch 8, the ingest-attachment is no longer a plugin, it’s now included in Elasticsearch).
