Expected behavior

Working after the upgrade.

Minimum steps to reproduce

Upgrade from 3.6 to 4.2. at php8.2 with sudo -u shortener php8.2 vendor/bin/shlink-installer update

[liferadioat]

Restart of php-fpm and nginx did the trick.

[acelaya]

The requirement to restart the services is documented here https://shlink.io/documentation/update-your-instance/#updating-a-self-hosted-instance, the last step of the list.

However, many people end up having this problem (#2187 (comment) for example), and I'm wondering if it's because this documentation is hard to discover, or not clear enough.

Can you describe the process you followed to update your insurance, or if you "googled" something in order to know what to do?

[liferadioat]

Thanks, I think it is related to my tradition. I am using your great software for years and commonly I updated without restarting the services - so I have overseen the new documentation.

Thanks!
