[TOC]
!!! note "Paid Remote Upgrade Support"
We offer remote upgrade support if you don't want to get your hands dirty,
check [the details](https://www.iredmail.org/support.html) and
[contact us](https://www.iredmail.org/contact.html).
!!! attention
Since iRedAdmin-0.9.2 (open source edition), and iRedAdmin-Pro-SQL-3.0,
iRedAdmin-Pro-LDAP-3.2, iRedAdmin or iRedAdmin-Pro is running as a
standalone service named "iredadmin", each time you modified its config
file, please restart the service ("iredadmin").
This tutorial describes how to update or migrate iRedAdmin (either open source
edition or old iRedAdmin-Pro release) to the latest iRedAdmin release (again,
either open source edition or iRedAdmin-Pro).
## Requirements
1. The latest iRedAdmin-Pro always requires the latest iRedMail stable release,
so you __MUST__ upgrade iRedMail to the latest stable release before
upgrading iRedAdmin-Pro.
* If you run the latest iRedAdmin-Pro with old iRedMail release, you may
get error due to missing some required ldap attribute/value pairs
(OpenLDAP backend), or missing some required SQL columns.
* If you run the latest iRedMail with old iRedAdmin-Pro, you may get error
due to missing dropped SQL columns, or created accounts may miss some
properties required by the latest iRedMail.
1. You __MUST__ have iRedAdmin open source edition or old iRedAdmin-Pro release
installed and running on your server before upgrading.
## Download the latest iRedAdmin
* iRedAdmin open source edition is available for download [here](https://dl.iredmail.org/yum/misc/).
* iRedAdmin-Pro customers can get download link of new release by following
steps below:
* Login to iRedAdmin-Pro as global admin.
* Click `License` button on the top-right corner. it will show you basic
license info and a `Download` button if new version is available.
* Click `Download` button, your mailbox (license owner) will receive an email
with download link in a short time. Note: if your mail server has greylisting
enabled, it may take longer, please be patient and don't request download
link again and again.
If you cannot download iRedAdmin-Pro for some reason, please [contact us](https://www.iredmail.org/contact.html).
## Upgrade Steps
* Upload or copy the latest iRedAdmin to your server which has iRedAdmin
open source edition or old iRedAdmin-Pro release running. We assume you
uploaded it to `/root/iRedAdmin-x.y.z.tar.bz2` (`x.y.z` is a placeholder of
the version number).
* Uncompress and upgrade iRedAdmin:
!!! warning
Do not rename the extracted directory (`iRedAdmin-x.y.z`), otherwise
upgrade may fail.
```
# cd /root/
# tar xjf iRedAdmin-x.y.z.tar.bz2
# cd iRedAdmin-x.y.z/tools/
# bash upgrade_iredadmin.sh
```
