Upgrading Faraday¶

Step 1 - Downloading Faraday Installer¶

Download the Faraday installer (.deb or .rpm) from:

Faraday Portal

Step 2 - Upgrading the package¶

Go to your Download directory and run the following command:

# For .deb
sudo apt-get install ./faraday-server_amd64.deb

This process will take charge of installing and migrating all the data to the new version of Faraday.

Importing License¶

First Method¶

Step 1¶

Delete the old license files from /home/faraday/.faraday/doc/ :

rm /home/faraday/.faraday/doc/*

Step 2¶

Import the license using the "import-license" command:

faraday-manage import-license

Input your credentials to download the proper license.

Second Method¶

Import the license manually downloading the license file from our Faraday Portal

Step 1¶

Delete the old license files from /home/faraday/.faraday/doc/ :

rm /home/faraday/.faraday/doc/*

On isolated servers where no internet connection is available, copy the license file named "licence.tar.gz" to /home/faraday/.faraday/doc/.

Extract the contents:

tar xvf {license file}.tar.gz

Post Server/ License Upgrade¶

Check process and status:

sudo systemctl status faraday-server
