Right now I'm running TC 7.0.22 on Windows Server 2008 R2, as windows

To upgrade to the latest version, I should be able to just stop the

installation, right?

Wrong.

At least one JAR (ecj*.jar, the Eclipse compiler) has changed names so
you'll have multiple versions of that JAR. You'll need to remove the old
versions.

Ok.



You are also likely to clobber any customisations you have in server.xml
or any of the other files in conf.

I use separate CATALINA_BASE and CATALINA_HOME directories, so shouldn't be an issue.



You can do it this way but you need to be really careful.

The migration guide on the web site provides a handy tool to check for
changes in the default config files between versions so you can see what
changes you need to apply to your customised files (assuming you have
made some tweaks).

No customizations to the default conf files, but I'll take a look to see what else I might not be thinking of.

Thanks!
