Description
Hi team, I have 5 "update now" notifications stacked on top of each other at the top of my rocket chat instance.
Every time I click the notification to upgrade, there is no actionable step to perform the upgrade.
e.g. the notification takes me here:
https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat/releases/tag/4.4.2
What do I do now? Do I scp the zip file to my server? What about the existing files?
I googled to find the upgrade instructions but I couldn't find anything.
I would love a few high-level dot points on what commands I need to run, to complete the update(s).
Thanks!
Andrew
