How to Manage Over-The-Air (OTA) Updates

Last Updated: May 17, 2026 6 Views

Keeping your software up-to-date is critical for security and performance. Christo Lochenberg Developments utilizes a seamless Over-The-Air (OTA) update engine, meaning you do not need to manually download, extract, and upload patches via FTP.

How OTA Updates Work When an update is released for your specific software version, your application will automatically detect it via your active license key.

  1. You will see an "Update Available" notification in your application dashboard.

  2. When you initiate the update, the OtaUpdater engine will securely download the latest encrypted package directly from our servers.

  3. The engine automatically extracts the new files, replacing outdated code while preserving your custom configurations.

  4. Automated Database Migrations: If the update requires changes to your database structure (like adding new tables or columns), the engine executes these SQL commands automatically and sequentially before cleaning up the installation files.

Important Pre-Update Steps: While the OTA process is heavily automated and secure, we always mandate that you take a complete backup of your database and application files before clicking "Update." This ensures you have a recovery point in the event of an unexpected server timeout during the download process.
