Update Automatically on Linux

On Linux, you can set up rippled to automatically upgrade to the latest version with a one-time cron configuration. Ripple recommends enabling automatic updates if possible.

These instructions assume you have already installed rippled from the yum repository (CentOS/RedHat) or using apt(Ubuntu/Debian).

Warning: The install and upgrade process for for rippled 1.3.0 has changed. If you have rippled v1.2.4 or lower installed, follow the rippled 1.3.0 migration instructions

To set up automatic updates, complete the following steps:

  1. Check that /opt/ripple/etc/update-rippled-cron exists. If it does not, update manually (CentOS/Red Hat or Ubuntu/Debian).

  2. Create a symlink in your cron.d folder

The script updates the installed rippled package within an hour of each new release. To reduce the chance of outages from all servers updating simultaneously, the script delays the update for a random number of minutes, up to 59.
