To upgrade to a new TrainMyAI version, please follow the steps below.
  • Log in to your server and use cd to navigate to the directory containing the trainmyai directory. Confirm that the command below shows the trainmyai directory's contents:

    ls -l trainmyai

  • Use the mv command to rename the existing trainmyai directory, for example:

    mv trainmyai trainmyai-2024-10-15

    wget https://trainmy.ai/download/trainmyai-1.6.tar.gz

  • Copy the configuration file across from the old to new directory:

    cp trainmyai-2024-10-15/config.ini trainmyai/config.ini

  • Optional: If you have a license, any custom settings, templates or preprocessors, copy them across as well:

    cp trainmyai-2024-10-15/license.json trainmyai
    cp -R trainmyai-2024-10-15/settings trainmyai
    cp -R trainmyai-2024-10-15/templates trainmyai
    cp -R trainmyai-2024-10-15/preprocessors trainmyai

  • If you are using ChatGPT only (remote language models):
    • Open the installation verification page verify-install.php of TrainMyAI in your web browser. For example, https://my-site.com/trainmyai/verify-install.php. This will check that everything is in order and perform any database updates required.
  • If you are using Llama 3 (local language model):
    • Check that your server fulfils the additional requirements.
    • If you are using Llama 3 (local language model) for the first time after upgrading, follow the last step of section 1 of the manual installation guide to install prerequisites, then modify the trainmyai/config.ini file by following the last 2 steps of section 4 of the manual installation guide.
