Are we still on PHP 8.3?

The support matrix hasn’t been updated yet.

YeaY! I have the version 8.8.1 installed with docker compose a couple of months ago. Is there an easy way to just upgrade it?

Thanks

You should aim for 8.9.1

Hello Ben,

Unfortunately, there is not “internal Docker upgrade” for SuiteCRM.
In order to do a standard upgrade, you’d need CLI PHP, wget, tar etc.

The easiest way is to create a DB dump, extract the files and setup the CRM on a staging / test environment (a standard LAMP system - Ubuntu 24 LTS works well).
There, you’d do a standard upgrade.
With the upgraded system, you can now build a new Docker container for your new version.

It has the big advantage, that you’re not upgrading the live system directly and you always have a fallback / backup.
