Regular OS Patching

Community Feedback

Hello,
I’ve installed Passbolt on CentOS 7.x without any issues and I would like to find out whether it’s OK to perform regular OS patching, or it’s always important to update both OS and Passbolt software itself.
Thank you

Hello @radan,

Regular OS patching should not be an issue. But do a backup of your data just in case.

In the case the version of PHP is upgraded, which would be surprising for a patching update.

  • The php-gnupg extension would require to be recompiled (sudo pecl install gnupg)
  • The composer dependencies could also be impacted, better to reinstall them composer install --no-dev (from the passbolt folder).

I don’t think SELinux could be an issue.

Hope that it will help,
Best regards.
