Fast Path Install & Upgrade
Fast Path Install
Want to get up and running super fast on your dev box or server? Use our awesome download scripts and you’ll be coding in no time. These commands will download and unpack the latest version of FusionAuth.
By default, FusionAuth installs leveraging the database as the User search engine. You may optionally also install and configure Elasticsearch to leverage advanced search functionality. Commands for both configurations are provided below.
Environment Variables
The following environment variables may be provided to the install script to augment behavior.
-
TARGET_DIR
- The location to install the zip. Defaults value is $PWD/fusionauth. This value is ignored when installing Debian or RPM packages. -

Fast Path Upgrade
The Fast Path commands can also be used to upgrade to the latest version of FusionAuth. Follow the steps documented below.
macOS
In this example, we’ll assume you have previously installed FusionAuth in /usr/local/fusionauth
and this directory will be referred to FUSIONAUTH_HOME
. If you have used a different directory you can adjust the following example accordingly.
# Stop Services
<FUSIONAUTH_HOME>/bin/shutdown.sh
Then, run the appropriate FastPath install/upgrade command from the parent directory of FUSIONAUTH_HOME
(if FUSIONAUTH_HOME
is /usr/local/fusionauth
, run the command from /usr/local
).
Reference the commands defined in the install steps above to determine which install/upgrade command is appropriate for your environment.
# Start Services
<FUSIONAUTH_HOME>/fusionauth/bin/startup.sh
Windows
Please note, that versions equal to 1.37.0
and less than 1.40.0
did not have a native Windows install option. It is recommended to plan to install version 1.40.0
or later.
In this example, we’ll assume you have previously installed FusionAuth in \fusionauth
and this directory will be referred to FUSIONAUTH_HOME
. If you have used a different directory you can adjust the following example accordingly.
First, terminate the running FusionAuth App and Elasticsearch services. Prior to version 1.40.0
if you are not using Windows services, you will need to manually end the FusionAuth processes process by closing the interactive command shell window. Beginning in version 1.40.0
, please utilize the following shutdown command.
# Stop Services
<FUSIONAUTH_HOME>\bin\shutdown.ps1
Then, run the appropriate FastPath install/upgrade command from the parent directory of FUSIONAUTH_HOME
(if FUSIONAUTH_HOME
is \fusionauth
, run this command from \
). Reference the commands defined in the install steps above to determine which install/upgrade command is appropriate for your environment.
Prior to version 1.37.0
, the startup command will be named startup.bat
instead of startup.ps1
.
# Startup Services
<FUSIONAUTH_HOME>\bin\startup.ps1
Linux
