Upgrading FeedbackPulse SaaS

How to safely upgrade to a new version of FeedbackPulse SaaS.

Before You Upgrade​

  1. Create a database backup — Admin → Copias de Seguridad → Create Backup
  2. Back up your .env file — cp .env .env.backup
  3. Back up uploaded files — cp -r storage/app/public storage/app/public.backup
  4. Note your current version — check config/app.php for the version number
  5. Read the changelog — check what's new and if there are breaking changes

Upgrade Steps​

Step 1: Download the New Version​

Download the latest release from CodeCanyon.

Step 2: Upload New Files​

Replace application files (but preserve your configuration):

cd /var/www/feedbackpulse-saas

# Back up critical files
cp .env .env.backup
cp -r storage/app/public storage/app/public.backup

# Upload and extract new files
# (overwrite existing files, but NOT .env or storage/app/public/)

Do NOT overwrite:

  • .env (your configuration)
  • storage/app/public/ (uploaded files)
  • storage/installed.lock (installation lock)

Step 3: Run the Web Updater (Recommended — No CLI Needed)​

  1. Inicia sesion as Super Admin
  2. Visit https://yourdomain.com/update
  3. Click Run Update

This automatically:

  • Runs any pending database migrations
  • Clears configuration, route, and view caches
  • Re-creates the storage symlink (or confirms the PHP fallback is active)
  • Updates the stored version number

Shared hosting users: This is all you need. No terminal, no SSH, no php artisan commands.

Step 3 (Alternative): CLI Update (VPS/Dedicated Only)​

If you prefer the command line:

composer install --no-dev --optimize-autoloader
php artisan migrate --force
php artisan optimize:clear
php artisan optimize

Step 4: Restart Services (VPS Only)​

Skip this step on hosting compartido.

# Restart queue workers (if using)
sudo supervisorctl restart feedbackpulse-worker:*

# Restart PHP-FPM
sudo systemctl restart php8.2-fpm

Step 5: Verify​

  1. Visit your site — check the pagina de aterrizaje loads
  2. Inicia sesion as superadmin — verify the dashboard
  3. Check Admin → Configuracion — look for any new configuration options
  4. Check the version number in the panel de administracion

Rolling Back​

If something goes wrong:

# Restore .env
cp .env.backup .env

# Restore uploaded files
cp -r storage/app/public.backup/* storage/app/public/

# Restore database from backup
mysql -u username -p feedbackpulse < backup.sql

# Clear caches
php artisan optimize:clear
