CMK version:
docker check-mk-free:2.1.0-latest

OS version:
Debian 11

Error message:

### UPDATING SITE
Please completely stop 'cmk' before updating it

I haven’t used cmk in a while because I had to change my setup. And now I get the message from above and can’t use docker exec to the container because the container stops itself everytime.

Thank you for your replies!

Hi @DSW,

can you please share in detail how you want to update your Checkmk?
The regular Update process of installing a .deb or .rpm package is not the right way if you are running Checkmk as a Docker Container.

Thanks in advance!

Hey Norman,

the problem is that I can’t get my old volume running again because of this message.
I would like to update (using the latest cloud version) but I’m prompted with this message on any docker image.

My plan yesterday then was to load up the old version, export a backup, create a new volume with the backup. Might it be easier to just extract the configuration / profile files? If so, where are they located in the docker volume?
