We want to update our server to the latest version but according to the documentation it is recommended to install on a clean server. Unfortunately we are not proficient in command line control. Will the installer update our current version?

Hi,

There is a necessary operating system upgrade (from Ubuntu 20.04 to Ubuntu 22.04) when upgrading from BBB 2.7.X to 3.0.X. So BBB can not be upgraded in-place.

You MUST thus install a fresh new Ubuntu 22.04 system before reinstalling BBB.

Kind regards,

Thierry
