Patch

CryoSPARC periodically releases new patches, which you can view on the CryoSPARC Updates page.

1. Ensure your CryoSPARC instance is running¶

If it is not running, start it with:

Bash

cryosparc-merlin cryosparcm start

The -d / --cryosparc-path option

If the CryoSPARC installation is not located in the default directory /data/user/$USER/cryosparc, specify the installation path using the -d option.

2. Download the patches¶

Bash

cryosparc-merlin cryosparcm patch --download

3. Install the master node patch¶

Bash

cryosparc-merlin cryosparcm patch --install

4. Install the worker node patch¶

Bash

CRYOSPARC_PATH=/data/user/$USER/cryosparc

mv $CRYOSPARC_PATH/cryosparc_master/cryosparc_worker_patch.tar.gz \
$CRYOSPARC_PATH/cryosparc_worker

Bash

cryosparc-merlin cryosparcw patch

Worker Architecture

Make sure you access the correct worker installation. For installations with version 5 or above, the path to the worker installation has the architecture in the directory path.

Bash

/data/user/$USER/cryosparc/cryosparc_worker_x86_64

or

Bash

/data/user/$USER/cryosparc/cryosparc_worker_aarch64

5. Restart CryoSPARC to finalize the update¶

Bash

cryosparc-merlin cryosparcm restart
