hasura graphql engine UPGRADE

Affected: >= 2.10.0 and < 2.10.2 · >= 2.11.0 and < 2.11.3 · >= 2.13.0 and < 2.13.2 · >= 2.15.0 and < 2.15.2 · 2.12.0 · 2.12.0 beta1 · 2.14.0 · 2.14.0 beta1

Fixed in: 2.10.2, 2.11.3, 2.13.2, 2.15.2

Safe to downgrade to: a release before 2.10.0

1. Check installed version

apt-cache policy graphql-engine || rpm -q graphql-engine || graphql-engine --version

2. UPGRADE to 2.10.2 (Debian / Ubuntu)

sudo apt update && sudo apt install --only-upgrade graphql-engine

2. UPGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

sudo dnf upgrade graphql-engine

Note

Distros often backport fixes without changing the version number. Confirm with the distro advisory or changelog.

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE to a release before 2.10.0 (Debian / Ubuntu)

apt-cache madison graphql-engine sudo apt install graphql-engine=<VERSION_BEFORE_2.10.0> sudo apt-mark hold graphql-engine

3. If no update is available yet, DOWNGRADE (RHEL / Amazon Linux / Fedora)

dnf --showduplicates list graphql-engine sudo dnf downgrade graphql-engine-<VERSION_BEFORE_2.10.0> sudo dnf versionlock add graphql-engine

Downgrade risk

Downgrading can break dependent software and may reopen older bugs. Read the distro advisory first and test on a non-production host.

After downgrade

Restart the service, and keep the package held until a fixed release ships.
