Determine the version of the CodeDeploy agent - AWS CodeDeploy

Determine the version of the CodeDeploy agent

You can determine the version of the CodeDeploy agent running on your instance in two ways.

First, for version 2.0.x and later, use the codedeploy-agent --version command on all platforms.

Second, you can view the version in a .version file on the instance. On Amazon Linux, RHEL, and Ubuntu Server the file is located at /opt/codedeploy-agent/.version, and on Windows Server at C:\ProgramData\Amazon\CodeDeploy\.version. The contents of the file differ by version:

  • For version 2.0.x and later, the file contains the bare version number, in the format agent_version: 2.0.0. This value matches the version that the agent reports to the CodeDeploy service.

  • For version 1.8.x and earlier, the version string uses the format OFFICIAL_1.0.1.854_rpm (or _deb, _msi).

Determine the version on Amazon Linux or RHEL

Sign in to the instance and run the following command:

sudo /opt/codedeploy-agent/bin/codedeploy-agent --version

For versions earlier than 2.0.0, you can also use:

sudo yum info codedeploy-agent

Determine the version on Ubuntu Server

Sign in to the instance and run the following command:

sudo /opt/codedeploy-agent/bin/codedeploy-agent --version

For versions earlier than 2.0.0, you can also use:

sudo dpkg -s codedeploy-agent

Determine the version on Windows Server

Sign in to the instance and run the following command:

& 'C:\ProgramData\Amazon\CodeDeploy\bin\codedeploy-agent.exe' --version
