Documentation for upgrading an instance #356

Closed ZakarFin closed 8 months ago

ZakarFin commented 9 months ago

How do you see one should go about updating the re3gistry apps from one version to a newer one? Is it mostly about updating the webapps under Tomcat or should I always do a full clean install from start to finish or how do you see the app being updated for production use? Would make it much easier to maintain if there would be some instructions about what needs to be updated on a running instance of the software.

Hi @ZakarFin

Thank you for your suggestion. It's unnecessary to do a clean installation, just replace the files on your server (webapp and .war) and make sure you have the file system.installed in Re3gistry2\src\main\resources\configurations_files. In case you made any changes to configuration files you must make them again, otherwise all should work as previously. image

We'll work on making the documentation more clear on this subject. We hope we have answered your questions.

Regards
