**NOTE:**

When upgrading from before 1.9.2, a corrective script may need to be ran

`./manage.py create_endpoint_status`

If you're using docker:

`docker-compose exec uwsgi ./manage.py create_endpoint_status`

This can take a while depending on your hardware and the number of findings in your instance.

- Search index tweaking index rebuild after upgrade:

This requires a (one-time) rebuild of the Django-Watson search index. Execute the django command from the defect dojo installation directory:

`./manage.py buildwatson`

If you're using docker:

`docker-compose exec uwsgi ./manage.py buildwatson`

This can take a while depending on your hardware and the number of findings in your instance.
