Hello,
I am runnig on debian jessie and openfire server 3.10.0
How is the best procedure to update on openfire server 3.10.1 with new deb package ?
Is enough to just dpkg -i openfire.deb or I have to stop server and backup home dir and after update rewrite date back from backedup data.
Should I again join openfire to AD domain ?
PS:
Where are all important files of openfire.
Thank you for any helps.
Best regards Filip.
hi there!
Today i did an update from 3.10.0 to 3.10.1.
I did perform the following steps:
-
stop openfire (during setup there is a msg that it tries to stop openfire anyway, did this just to be on the safe side)
-
i ran a dpkg -i without any addtional parameters.
-
openfire was started automatically after the update
Concerning your backup question: Ask yourself “Do i need a backup and maybe the possibility to roll back?” if yes - go and backup things.
Important files… hm. Differs where you installed them.
have a look at /usr/share/openfire
and, maybe you are running a mysql db also, you also would need to dump this.
Kind regards
P.s.:
As far as i know you don’t need to copy anything back as long as you are not reverting to backed up state.

Yes, I was stop openfire with service openfire stop and ran dpkg -i
Update was simply copy new date over older version and done. After this I was start openfire and everything works.
