BoostonCP regularly broadcasts security patches, kernel performance optimizations, and feature updates. Keeping your BoostonCP node up-to-date is simple and can be done via 1-click GUI or terminal SSH command.

Important Safety & Backup Advisory

Although BoostonCP updates are designed for zero-downtime stability and automatic safety rollbacks, we always recommend maintaining active backups before performing system-wide upgrades.

We strongly advise keeping BoostonCP's Incremental Disaster Recovery Backup System active (under Admin Panel > Backups) to protect your client websites and MySQL databases against unforeseen hardware issues.

Method 1: 1-Click GUI Update (Recommended & Easiest)

Updating your server through the BoostonCP Admin GUI requires zero command-line input and executes in seconds.

  1. Log into your BoostonCP Admin Dashboard (e.g. https://your-server-ip:2087).
  2. When a new version is released, a red notification button labeled New Update will automatically appear in the top header navbar.
  3. Click the New Update button to open the System Update Architecture window.
  4. Review the Release Intelligence notes, then click the blue PROCEED WITH UPDATE button.
  5. The system will automatically download the binary core, verify integrity, apply patches, and refresh your panel cleanly.

Method 2: Terminal / SSH Command Line Update

If you prefer updating via command line or terminal SSH, log into your server as root and run the single update binary command:

/usr/bin/booston-core system_update "https://boostoncp.com/api/download_core.php" "https://boostoncp.com/api/download_binary.php"

The Booston-Core GoLang engine will fetch the binary packages, verify signatures, execute system updates, and restart micro-services with zero downtime.

Verification:

After updating, refresh your Admin Dashboard. The version badge in the header navbar (e.g. v1.0.41) will reflect your active updated version.
