How to upgrade SafeSquid from CLI(Command Line Interface)

From Secure Web Gateway

Overview

Upgrading SafeSquid from its web interface https://safesquid.cfg/ is the default and recommend way to upgrade SafeSquid.

However, with SafeSquid version 2022.0718.1917.3 and older, upgrading from SafeSquid's web interface does not work because of inconsistent directive in monit configuration.

Also, there might be certain situations where you do not have access to SafeSquid’s web interface but you do have access to its command line interface.

In such situations you can upgrade SafeSquid from its command line interface.
