Add the ClamAV container to the Docker Compose stack (see `docker-compose.yml`) and start the container. 2. Docker will wait for ClamAV to start before starting Pingvin Share. This may take a minute or two. 3. The Pingvin Share logs should now log "ClamAV is active" Please note that ClamAV needs a lot of [ressources](https://docs.clamav.net/manual/Installing/Docker.html#memory-ram-requirements). ### Additional resources - [Synology NAS installation](https://mariushosting.com/how-to-install-pingvin-share-on-your-synology-nas/) ### Upgrade to a new version As Pingvin Share is in early stage, see the release notes for breaking changes before upgrading. #### Docker ```bash docker compose pull docker compose up -d ``` #### Stand-alone 1. Remove the running app ``` pm2 delete pingvin-share-backend pingvin-share-frontend ``` 2.
