Problem when upgrading from 1.2.1 to 1.3.0

Hello all,

I am trying to migrate from 1.2.1 to 1.3.0 so I am following this steps. https://appwrite.io/docs/advanced/self-hosting/update Problem is that when I try to execute this command: docker run -it --rm
\ --volume /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
\ --volume "$(pwd)"/appwrite:/usr/src/code/appwrite:rw
\ --entrypoint="upgrade"
\ appwrite/appwrite:1.4.9

I get the following error docker: Error response from daemon: failed to create shim task: OCI runtime create failed: runc create failed: unable to start container process: exec: "upgrade": executable file not found in $PATH: unknown.

I am hosting in a QNAP server

Thank you in advance for your time and help

1. That command is to upgrade to 1.4.9, not 1.3.0.
2. Are you sure you’re in the folder above the appwrite/ folder?

Also, the upgrade command was first introduced in 1.4. Prior to that, you'll need to use the install command, but please make sure to run it in the PARENT folder of the appwrite folder, like ideclon said.

My bad, I directly copied the code from the support page instead of the one I used docker run -it --rm
\ --volume /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
\ --volume "$(pwd)"/appwrite:/usr/src/code/appwrite:rw
\ --entrypoint="upgrade"
\ appwrite/appwrite:1.3.0

I also tried in all the possible folder up and down, and in everyone I get the same error.

Thank you for your reply Steven, so it will not work with previous versions? The thing is that I tried out of curiosity this command

docker compose exec appwrite migrate

and it works, I believe it is migrating from 1.2.1 to 1.2.1 which does not makes sense but I get a positive output saying that the migration was correctly performed. Also the documentation page (https://appwrite.io/docs/advanced/self-hosting/update) does not say anything about the starting at 1.4. Actually, the example says 0.6.x and 0.7.x which suggests that from version 0.6 an update can be made.

Yes,the documentation needs to be updated to include a note about the upgrade command prior to 1.4.x. But what you need to do is change --entrypoint="upgrade" to --entrypoint="install"
