Okay, thank you!

My problem is: I don't know anything about the behave of
applications/webservices which the tomcat 6.0.16 is running at the
moment. So I am not able to determine whether everything works fine or
not after a change to tomcat 7. At least till some users start
complaining :D.

But my own Web-Project doesn't run under 6.0.16. Therefore I had to
upgrade to version 7.0.x.
I did it this morning and till now everything went well. I hope this lasts

Best regards

Andi

So you don't have any kind of testing procedure before rolling-out to
production? Yikes!

When switching between major version numbers, I generally install the
latest Tomcat version in development and run like that for several
months before planning an upgrade in production. We have several full
rounds of testing before anything like that gets upgraded in
production. The plan is less stringent when updating point-releases.

We do the same thing with major JVM upgrades.

 But my own Web-Project doesn't run under 6.0.16. Therefore I had
 to upgrade to version 7.0.x. I did it this morning and till now

Me too! yum update  service tomcat restart  cross_fingers is not
a great upgrade procedure.

Updating Tomcat-Server from Version 6.0.16 to 7.0.30

2012-09-19 Thread Andreas Stadelmeier
Hello guys,

i would like to install the newest stable version of the Apache Tomcat
Server. I already got some stuff running on the old Tomcat v.6.0.16
Server.
I want to ask you, if it is safe to do this update and if afterwards
my v 6 compatible JSP-Files wont cause any problems.

Thank you in advance,

Andi

Try the latest 6.0.x first, then if your app is fine, try 7.0.x.
