### Errors during InvenTree update
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Sometimes, users may encounter unexpected error messages when updating their InvenTree installation to a newer version.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
The most common problem here is that the correct sequenct of steps is followed:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
1. Ensure that the InvenTree web server and background worker processes are *halted*
 | 
			
		||||
1. Update the InvenTree software (e.g. using git or docker, depending on installation method)
 | 
			
		||||
1. Run the `invoke update` command
 | 
			
		||||
1. Restart the web server and background worker processes
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
For more information, refer to the installation guides:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
- [Docker Installation](./start/docker_prod.md#updating-inventree)
 | 
			
		||||
- [Bare Metal Installation](./start/update.md)
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### Feature *x* is not visible after update
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
If a particular menu / item is not visible after updating InvenTree, it may be due to your internet browser caching old versions of CSS and JavaScript files.
