How to update ghost on droplet

Hello,

I was able to install ghost droplet using a Youtube video but can not figure out how will I updated the theme updated or major Ghost version in the future.

I have seen the documentation on the Ghost website and tried it in terminal.

I keep getting the error “Run ghost update again within a folder where Ghost was installed with Ghost-CLI.”

Any help is appreciated

Hi @SumitChhabra,

From the Youtube video see in which folder you installed Ghost. You need to go to that folder like so:

  1. cd /path/to/ghost/

and run the

  1. ghost update

there.

Alternatively, I’ll urge you to check this tutorial :

and follow it to install and configure Ghost from zero.
