Database Upgrade Required

Matomo database will be upgraded from version 4.6.2 to the new version 4.10.1.

Important notes for large Matomo installations

If you have a large Matomo database, updates might take too long to run in the browser. In this situation, you can execute the updates from your command line:

php /var/www/html/console core:update

If you manage a high traffic Matomo server, we recommend to momentarily disable visitor Tracking and put the Matomo User Interface in maintenance mode.

FYI: these are the SQL queries and console commands that will be executed to upgrade your database to Matomo 4.10.1
