Why has the update page for manual installations been removed?

I have this page bookmarked to copy the commands to update Rocket Chat everytime there’s an update: https://docs.rocket.chat/quick-start/installing-and-updating/manual-installation/updating

It has now been removed. Thankfully I have the commands saved:

sudo systemctl stop rocketchat

sudo rm -rf /opt/Rocket.Chat

sudo apt-get install -y build-essential graphicsmagick

sudo n install 12.22.1

curl -L https://releases.rocket.chat/latest/download -o /tmp/rocket.chat.tgz

tar -xzf /tmp/rocket.chat.tgz -C /tmp

cd /tmp/bundle/programs/server && npm install

sudo mv /tmp/bundle /opt/Rocket.Chat

sudo systemctl start rocketchat

Hi !

Really sorry about that! There was an issue with our github repo x gitbook, due to which a couple of redirects were broken. The team has been made aware.

The updated link is this one Manual Installation - Rocket.Chat Docs

This isn’t working.

curl -L https://releases.rocket.chat/latest/download -o /tmp/rocket.chat.tgz

This command seems to work, but

tar -xzf /tmp/rocket.chat.tgz -C /tmp

Comes back with an error saying:

gzip:stdin: not in gzip format
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

What’s happened?

Do you know if this has been fixed @debdut.chakraborty ?
