Upgrading from v1.5 to v1.6

Upgrading cert-manager CRDs and stored versions of cert-manager custom resources

Following their deprecation in version 1.4, the cert-manager API versions v1alpha2, v1alpha3, and v1beta1 are no longer served.

This means if your deployment manifests contain any of these API versions, you will not be able to deploy them after upgrading. Our new cmctl utility or old kubectl cert-manager plugin can convert old manifests to v1 for you.

⛔️ If you are upgrading cert-manager on a cluster which has previously had cert-manager < v1.0.0, you will need to ensure that all cert-manager custom resources are stored in etcd at v1 version and that cert-manager CRDs do not reference the deprecated APIs before you upgrade to v1.6.

This is explained in more detail in the Upgrading existing cert-manager resources page.

If you are currently using HTTP-01 challenges or the Ingress shim annotations, please read the Ingress class compatibility notes to see if your Ingress controller has any known issues with the migration to Ingress v1.
