Installing Sicura Console

The Sicura Console is available as a container and requires a PostgreSQL database server. The completely rewritten frontend web application provides enhanced usability and features compared to previous versions. We recommend using PostgreSQL version 15 or newer for optimal compatibility and performance.

Prerequisites

Database Requirements

The Sicura Console requires a PostgreSQL database (version 15 or higher).

Important: The 2025.5.0 release requires a fresh database. Migrating data from previous versions or RPM-based installations is not currently supported. If you’re upgrading from a previous version, you’ll need to create a new database and reconfigure your environment.

For detailed instructions on setting up PostgreSQL for Sicura Console, including:

Please refer to the PostgreSQL Server section in the Container Installation guide.

Console Installation

Container Installation

The Sicura Console is now distributed exclusively as a container image. The installation process consists of two main steps:

  1. Database Setup - Set up a PostgreSQL database
  2. Container Deployment - Run the Sicura Console container

For complete installation instructions, see the Container Installation Guide.

For information about managing the running console, see Running Sicura Console.

Note: RPM-based installations are no longer supported as of the 2025.5.0 release. If you’re currently using an RPM-based installation, please see the upgrade guide for instructions on migrating to the container-based installation.
