Here's how I just upgraded to Version 1.89.5 on webfaction. It seemed to work.
'wp' is the name of my webFaction-application-directory which contains: $ tree -L 2 . |-- apache2 | |-- bin | |-- conf | |-- lib | |-- logs | `-- modules |-- bin |-- htdocs | `-- index.py |-- lib | `-- python2.5 |-- web2py | |-- ABOUT | |-- LICENSE | |-- Makefile | |-- NEWINSTALL | |-- README | |-- VERSION | |-- __init__.py | |-- app.yaml | |-- appengine_config.py | |-- applications | |-- cgihandler.py | |-- deposit | |-- epydoc.conf | |-- epydoc.css | |-- fcgihandler.py | |-- gaehandler.py | |-- gluon | |-- httpserver.pid | |-- logging.example.conf | |-- modpythonhandler.py | |-- options_std.py | |-- parameters_80.py | |-- parameters_8000.py | |-- queue.yaml | |-- routes.example.py | |-- scripts | |-- setup_app.py | |-- setup_exe.py | |-- site-packages | |-- splashlogo.gif | |-- web2py.py | |-- web2py_src_downloaded.zip | |-- welcome.w2p | `-- wsgihandler.py `-- web2py_src.zip 16 directories, 31 files Here are the commands. They seemed to work. $ cd /home/my_acct/webapps/wp/apache2/bin $ ./stop $ cd /home/my_acct/webapps/wp $ rm web2py_src.zip $ wget -q http://www.web2py.com/examples/static/web2py_src.zip $ unzip -q web2py_src.zip replace web2py/gluon/__init__.py? [y]es, [n]o, [A]ll, [N]one, [r]ename: A $ cd /home/my_acct/webapps/wp/apache2/bin $ ./start You will need to replace 'my_acct' with your account [login] name, and 'wp' with the name of your webFaction-application-directory to make this work for you.
