The upgrade process from Cachet v2.4 to v3.x is still in development.
Our goal is to make the upgrade from v2.4 to v3.x as simple as possible. We will provide detailed instructions on how to upgrade from v2.4 to v3.x once the upgrade process is finalized. For now, you’ll need to install Cachet v3.x from scratch or be comfortable with a manual upgrade process. An important change in Cachet 3.x is that it now relies more on Laravel’s own features and best practises. This means that some configuration options have been removed or changed. We will provide a detailed list of changes in the upgrade guide.
