Good to know

Jiva checks each update before it installs it. If the check fails, Jiva keeps the version you have.

If something goes wrong

Version shows “Check failed”

Check your internet connection, then click Check now.

The update did not install

Run the install command from Install Jiva again. It installs the latest version and keeps your data.
