Hello,
I have never upgraded Tomcat before and need to upgrade it from version
5.5.9 to 5.5.20 for application compatibility. I had a search through
the documentation and didn't come across a section on how to do this
type of thing (maybe I missed it). Can someone point me in the right
direction here?
From version: 5.5.9
To version: 5.5.20
OS: Windows Server 2000
IIS: IIS 5 using IIS Redirect for SSO purposes (application
requirements)
Other than that it is a pretty vanilla installation.
Thanks in advance,
Simon.
There's no patch or upgrade methodology.
You simply grab the latest version and install it in parallel, then
reconfigure as needed.
May I suggest that you just upgrade to the latest version (5.5.28)?
5.5.20 seems have been released very late 2007 - there's been
substantial work/bugfixes done since then.
The config (assuming your original is correct) will be identical, so you
should be able to install a new copy from tomcat.apache.org, and pretty
much copy & paste the contents of your various config files.
It is worth noting, however, that writing a fresh config is often a good
idea - especially if you've repeatedly carried old configs over from
ancient versions.
The list will assist if you get stuck with config.
