Upgrading the postanalytics module

These instructions describe the steps to upgrade the postanalytics module 4.x installed on a separate server. Postanalytics module must be upgraded before Upgrading Wallarm NGINX modules.

To upgrade the end‑of‑life module (3.6 or lower), please use the different instructions.

Requirements

  • Access to the account with the Administrator role in Wallarm Console in the US Cloud or EU Cloud

  • Access to https://us1.api.wallarm.com if working with US Wallarm Cloud or to https://api.wallarm.com if working with EU Wallarm Cloud. Please ensure the access is not blocked by a firewall

Step 1: Add new Wallarm repository

Delete the previous Wallarm repository address and add a repository with a new Wallarm node version packages. Please use the commands for the appropriate platform.

CentOS and Amazon Linux 2.0.2021x and lower

sudo yum remove wallarm-node-repo
sudo yum clean all
sudo rpm -i https://repo.wallarm.com/centos/wallarm-node/7/4.4/x86_64/wallarm-node-repo-4.4-0.el7.noarch.rpm

sudo yum remove wallarm-node-repo
sudo yum clean all
sudo rpm -i https://repo.wallarm.com/centos/wallarm-node/8/4.4/x86_64/wallarm-node-repo-4.4-0.el8.noarch.rpm

Debian and Ubuntu

  1. Open the file with the Wallarm repository address in the installed text editor. In this instruction, vim is used.

    sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list.d/wallarm.list

  2. Comment out or delete the previous repository address.

  3. Add a new repository address:

    Unsupported by NGINX stable and NGINX Plus

    Official NGINX versions (stable and Plus) and, as a result, Wallarm node 4.4 and above cannot be installed on Debian 10.x (buster). Please use this OS only if NGINX is installed from Debian/CentOS repositories.

    deb http://repo.wallarm.com/debian/wallarm-node buster/4.4/

    deb http://repo.wallarm.com/debian/wallarm-node bullseye/4.4/

    deb http://repo.wallarm.com/ubuntu/wallarm-node bionic/4.4/

    deb http://repo.wallarm.com/ubuntu/wallarm-node focal/4.4/

Step 2: Upgrade the Tarantool packages

sudo apt update
sudo apt dist-upgrade

The error "signatures couldn't be verified"

If added GPG keys expired, the following error would be returned:

W: GPG error: http://repo.wallarm.com/ubuntu/wallarm-node focal/4.4/ Release:The following
signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 1111FQQW999
E: The repository 'http://repo.wallarm.com/ubuntu/wallarm-node focal/4.4/ Release' is not signed.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.

To fix the problem, please import new GPG keys for the Wallarm packages and then upgrade the packages using the following commands:

curl -fsSL https://repo.wallarm.com/wallarm.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt update
sudo apt dist-upgrade

Upgrading Wallarm dependencies

The sudo apt dist-upgrade command upgrades both the Wallarm packages and filtering node dependencies. It is the recommended upgrade option providing correct operation of the newer filtering node version.

sudo apt update
sudo apt dist-upgrade
