In **Passwork 7**, the update process consists of several stages:

1. **Replacing Passwork files**
2. **Warming up the application cache**
3. **Updating the database**

Current update scripts perform these actions automatically. In the following cases, one or more actions may need to be performed manually:

- **During a manual update**
- **The script was interrupted**
- **An outdated update script**

## Warnings after update

Starting from **Passwork 7.7.0**, **warnings** may be displayed after an update. They reflect the **current Passwork state**: which step of the update process has not been completed:

- [**Application cache is not ready**](./cache-not-ready.mdx)
- [**Server database is not updated**](./database-not-updated.mdx)
