Patch the server

To ensure you have the latest fixes, we recommend that you install the latest patch available for your release at the Software Release Index. Patch installation is quick, but does involve the Helix Server being stopped briefly.

See the instructions below for your type of installation.

Linux package

No need to manually stop and restart the Helix Core Server.

Use apt update, then apt upgrade, and the server will restart with the latest patch.

Linux (or macOS) manual installation

Download the patched version of the P4D executable from the Perforce filehost server.

Stop the Helix Server.

Overwrite the existing P4D executable with the patch version.

Start the Helix Server.

Windows

Stop the Helix Server.

Go to the filehost server for Perforce and do one of the following:

• download the installer, then run it

• download the patched version of the P4D executable, overwrite the existing P4D executable and copy that to p4s.exe

Start the Helix Server.
