RE: upgrade to 5

2005-08-26 Thread Allistair Crossley
Hi there,

Of course you can, you just need to be aware of what elements of Tomcat you 
need to configure, e.g JNDI resources and so on and then lookup the way you do 
that in Tomcat 5. It's not a *far* cry from Tomcat 3/4, you still use 
server.xml for a bunch of stuff, but it's recommended that you configure your 
Context using a separate file. It's all online, just be aware of what 
configuration you need, look at the docs, and test. Make a backup of course.

Allistair.

 Hello,
 
 I'm extremely new to all this.  I was wondering if it is 
 possible to upgrade
 from tomcat version 3.2.3 to version 5?
 
 I've read that the upgrade from version 3 to 4 was difficult, 
 so my guess is
 that I will have to go to version 4 before I can go to 5.
 
 Thanks
 
 Dave

Thanks, that's somewhat of a relief, although I'm sure I have plenty of work
cut out for me :)

Off I go

Hey,

Yep, there's always toothache to be had with these things :) 

Cheers, Allistair.

I would skip straight to 5.  No point in going though 2 painful 
migrations instead of just one.  All the cores stuff is the same.  Read 
over the config docs, step up a test server play with it and when your 
ready update your production server.
