How to apply a patch - Community Edition¶

Run the composer update command:

composer --prefer-dist update

Be aware that your composer.json won’t be updated and some dependencies might be missing or coming from an outdated version.

You have to check whether the latest composer.json is different from yours. In this case you should backup your current composer.json and download the newest one beforehand.

Double check in the output of this command that the latest version has been fetched, you can also check it by using the following command:

composer licenses

Then clean the cache, re-install assets and warmup the cache:

Note

Before launching the following commands, remember to stop the daemon to avoid generating outdated cache.

service php8.0-fpm restart
rm -rf var/cache/* ./public/bundles/* ./public/css/* ./public/js/*
rm yarn.lock
bin/console pim:installer:assets
bin/console cache:warmup
yarn install
yarn run less
yarn run webpack

Please clear your browser’s cache before testing.

Note

We set any other dependencies to their exact patch versions to avoid compatibility issues.

Note

If you get a 500 error after upgrading, and clear cache isn’t working, try to clear the apc cache with a php script or restart Apache/Web server.
