Upgrade from 1.2.2 to 1.3.0 | ||
=========================== | ||
|
||
Automatic server upgrades | ||
------------------------- | ||
As with previous releases, your servers will be upgraded to the latest version | ||
of SecureDrop automatically within 24 hours of the release. | ||
|
||
Please note that the automated upgrade path from 1.2.2 to 1.3.0 | ||
will be supported throughout the 1.3.x and 1.4.x release series. Automated | ||
upgrades from 1.2.2 will not be supported to the 1.5.x release series or later. | ||
If your servers fail to automatically upgrade to 1.3.0 after this release, | ||
please :ref:`contact us <contact_us>` as soon as possible. | ||
|
||
Updating Workstations to SecureDrop 1.3.0 | ||
----------------------------------------- | ||
|
||
Using the graphical updater | ||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | ||
On the next boot of your SecureDrop *Journalist* and *Admin Workstations*, | ||
the *SecureDrop Workstation Updater* will alert you to workstation updates. You | ||
must have `configured an administrator password <https://tails.boum.org/doc/first_steps/startup_options/administration_password/>`_ | ||
on the Tails welcome screen in order to use the graphical updater. | ||
|
||
Perform the update to 1.3.0 by clicking "Update Now": | ||
|
||
.. image:: ../images/securedrop-updater.png | ||
|
||
Performing a manual update | ||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | ||
If the graphical updater fails and you want to perform a manual update instead, | ||
first delete the graphical updater's temporary flag file, if it exists (the | ||
``.`` before ``securedrop`` is not a typo): :: | ||
|
||
rm ~/Persistent/.securedrop/securedrop_update.flag | ||
|
||
This will prevent the graphical updater from attempting to re-apply the failed | ||
update and has no bearing on future updates. You can now perform a manual | ||
update by running the following commands: :: | ||
|
||
cd ~/Persistent/securedrop | ||
git fetch --tags | ||
gpg --keyserver hkps://keys.openpgp.org --recv-key \ | ||
"2224 5C81 E3BA EB41 38B3 6061 310F 5612 00F4 AD77" | ||
git tag -v 1.3.0 | ||
|
||
The output should include the following two lines: :: | ||
|
||
gpg: using RSA key 22245C81E3BAEB4138B36061310F561200F4AD77 | ||
gpg: Good signature from "SecureDrop Release Signing Key" | ||
|
||
Please verify that each character of the fingerprint above matches what is | ||
on the screen of your workstation. If it does, you can check out the | ||
new release: :: | ||
|
||
git checkout 1.3.0 | ||
|
||
.. important:: If you do see the warning "refname '1.3.0' is ambiguous" in the | ||
output, we recommend that you contact us immediately at [email protected] | ||
(`GPG encrypted <https://securedrop.org/sites/default/files/fpf-email.asc>`__). | ||
|
||
Finally, run the following commands: :: | ||
|
||
./securedrop-admin setup | ||
./securedrop-admin tailsconfig | ||
|
||
Upgrading Tails | ||
--------------- | ||
If you have already upgraded your workstations to the Tails 4 series, follow the | ||
graphical prompts to update to the latest version. | ||
|
||
.. important:: | ||
|
||
If you are still running Tails 3.x on any workstation, we urge you to update | ||
to the Tails 4 series as soon as possible. Tails 3.x is no longer receiving | ||
security updates, and is no longer supported by the SecureDrop team. | ||
Please see our | ||
:ref:`instructions for upgrading to Tails 4 <upgrade_to_tails_4>`. | ||
|
||
.. include:: ../includes/always-backup.txt | ||
|
||
Troubleshooting Kernel Issues | ||
----------------------------- | ||
SecureDrop 1.3.0 includes a kernel update on the *Application* and *Monitor | ||
Servers*, from version 4.14.154 to version 4.14.175. As with all kernel updates, | ||
we have extensively tested this update against | ||
:ref:`recommended hardware <Specific Hardware Recommendations>`. | ||
|
||
If you are running SecureDrop on hardware that is not officially supported, you | ||
may encounter compatibility issues with the new kernel. For example, the servers | ||
may not boot, or you may lose network connectivity. If this happens, you can | ||
temporarily downgrade to the previous kernel version. | ||
|
||
.. important:: | ||
|
||
To ensure continued secure operation of your SecureDrop instance, it is of | ||
critical importance to resolve any compatibility issues with the new kernel | ||
as quickly as possible. If you encounter problems with this update, please | ||
get in touch with us urgently, so we can help you run the latest supported | ||
kernel version. | ||
|
||
For information on how to downgrade to the previous kernel, and for additional | ||
troubleshooting information, please see our :doc:`Kernel Troubleshooting Guide <../kernel_troubleshooting>`. | ||
