Since version 21.2 KeyHelp also supports the operating system Debian 11 "Bullseye".
Do you run KeyHelp on a server with Debian 10 and want to take advantage of the optimized Debian 11? With this guide, we give you the opportunity to update the software by yourself and provide you with the required script and detailed instructions. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or need assistance.
Such instructions are also available for the older operating system versions of Debian and Ubuntu.
Further information can be found here.
ATTENTION: After you have started the script and confirmed the start of the upgrade with [ENTER], all the steps described here must be completed. If you cancel the current process, any changes already made must be undone manually.
ATTENTION: An ongoing upgrade process should always be monitored. Please keep the terminal window open for the duration of the upgrade. You should consider running the upgrade using the screen command to prevent the SSH session from being accidentally terminated.
ATTENTION: Although extensively tested, a previous backup of the server should always be performed.
ATTENTION: Additionally installable PHP interpreters are available from PHP 5.5 on. If older PHP interpreters are used on your system, you have to manually change the affected domains to a higher version.
ATTENTION: The package source list (/etc/apt/sources.list) is overwritten during the upgrade. If you have specified your own package sources, you may need to reconfigure them after the upgrade.
Preparation
Download the script with this command:
wget --no-check-certificate https://install.keyhelp.de/scripts/keyhelp_debian_upgrade_10_to_11 -O keyhelp_debian_upgrade_10_to_11.php
Afterwards start script with:
php keyhelp_debian_upgrade_10_to_11.php
1.)
You are now in the start screen of the application.
After you hit [ENTER], this script performs all necessary tasks in preparation of the upgrade. Additional reboots may be required, perform them when prompted.
2.)
The program flow is transferred to the Debian application dist-upgrade. Please follow the instructions of this program.
On questions about Should system config files be overwritten? answer with Keep the local version currently installed.
3.) In the last step, the script is restarted automatically. Confirm the continuation of the upgrade with [ENTER]. The required configuration files will then be updated. Confirm the restart of the system when the work is complete. The upgrade is now finished.
Congratulations, you now use KeyHelp with Debian 11 “Bullseye”!
