Updating the application

The cloud installation is updated quite regularly with a new version of ScoreExpress. Your local installation will not be updated automatically to the new version. In most cases this will not cause problems for your competitions, unless you specifically need one of the updates. However, if you run far behind with updates, some incompatibilities might arise.

Below is described what to do to update your local installation of ScoreExpress.

How to check for an update

When you open the ScoreExpress application in your browser, you will see the version number below the menu on the left of the page (if not you are really using an outdated version which needs an update). If the version number on the cloud application is higher than the one you are seeing on your local deployment, there is an update available.

Updating using Docker Desktop (Windows/Mac)

To install a new version on your PC, you need to execute the deployment script again (see Download and install ScoreExpress) This deployment script will check if new versions of the images are available and update them and then recreate the docker containers such that the new versions of the images are used.

After the update, you can resume the use of ScoreExpress as usual.
