Binary

Migrating from Snap to package/binary

Snap installation is deprecated. If you are migrating from Snap to a package or binary installation on the same host and were using BoltDB, ensure you move the BoltDB file and repositories directory and update the corresponding paths in config.json for database.boltdb and tmp_path. Also adjust file ownership for the service user (e.g., forge). Download a *.tar.gz for your platform from Releases page. Unpack the binary to the directory where your old Forge binary is located.
