There are certain files and components that you should back up before you upgrade WorldServer.
Procedure
- Make a backup copy of the entire folder tree of your installation (<WS_HOME>).
Note: In the locations given below,
<WS_HOME> is the top-level directory where
WorldServer is installed. By default, this is:
For Windows:
c:\Program Files\Idiom\WorldServer
For Linux:
/usr/local/idiom/worldserver
- If you are using Apache Tomcat on Linux and you have an existing Output and Artwork framework, also back up $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/server.xml.
- Back up your WorldServer database.
- Back up all filesystem mounts to which WorldServer connects.
- Save any reports you have created.
