No, you should take care to remove the previous version of GeoServer, GeoNetwork, and the Django app before installing the new one. Otherwise you may have multiple versions of dependencies around and confusing errors can occur as the system just sort of "picks one" arbitrarily at run time.
You should have some configuration changes in (tomcat webapps)/geoserver/WEB-INF/web.xml and (django virtualenv)/src/GeoNodePy/geonode/local_settings.py, make sure to hang on to those as well as the GeoServer datadir and Django database. Then blow away: - (tomcat webapps)/geoserver - (tomcat webapps)/geonetwork - the django virtualenv And re-run the relevant parts of the setup process (sorry, we don't have this written up well. Patches to the documentation are welcome though!) If you put everything in the same place you should be able to reuse the Apache configuration. -- David Winslow OpenGeo - http://opengeo.org/ On Mon, Aug 22, 2011 at 3:35 AM, Patrick Krejci <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi everybody, > > I sucessfully installed the version Geonode 1.0 on a Ubuntu 10.04. > Server, but I'm thinking to upgrade this version to the newest Geonode > 1.1. beta2.
