Upgrade Make

This chapter contains the necessary steps to upgrade Make.
When your current version of Make is 4.x or older we recommend doing a whole new installation of Make. Please follow the steps in the chapter ‘Installation by script’.

NOTE The upgrade script requires Make version 5.x or later
  • Download the latest version of Make on the product portal and unzip the file(s) to your local folder ( See chapter Get the latest version )
  • Start Windows PowerShell
  • Navigate to the location of the Make installation files (figure 1)

The script Upgrade-Make.ps1 needs to be executed. This script has the following parameters:

Property Description

WebAppName The Azure Web App Name for Make
AnalyzeOnly (switch) Indication that only current Make environment is analyzed and settings are collected. No upgrades takes place.

For a more detailed description, execute the following PowerShell command:

  • Enter your credentials (Make sure you are an Azure Administrator)

The upgrade process starts with collection all current configuration settings and inspects the existing web jobs.

NOTE currently, the Updater and Worker web jobs are recognized based on the web job names. If the text Updater or Worker is not present, the web job will be marked as unknown and a warning is shown. If upgrading Make continues the unknown web jobs will be removed.
