upgrade guacamole host
Hi all I have installed guacamole 1.4 on a virtual host debian buster 10
and now I would like upgrade debian to 12 (bookwarm) and upgrade
guacamole to the last 1.5.2. Whats the best way to performing this
upgrade? Have you any suggestions?

You can install Tomcat 9.0.70-1 on Debian 11/12 with same results.
normal installation location using apt /var/lib/tomcat9
Hope this helps
*Thank You*

Hi Mike,
Our policy is install software from Debian repository.
Installing Tomcat 9 on Debian 12 sadly bypasses repository putting Tomcat at risk from missing updates.

There are no known issues with building guacamole-client.
As long as you have Maven and a version of the JDK installed (8 or newer), things should build just fine.

This (upgrading Tomcat) does not pertain to the question at hand (upgrading Guacamole). If you are also looking to upgrade your copy of Tomcat, you need to instead use the latest release of Tomcat 9.x:
https://tomcat.apache.org/download-90.cgi
Tomcat 10.x uses a different and incompatible API which would require correspondingly incompatible changes within Guacamole. Tomcat 9.x, on the other hand, is actively maintained and compatible.
That's not to say support for Tomcat 10.x will never be added. Only that:
* Doing so while maintaining API compatibility is non-trivial, and maintaining API compatibility is important.
* Doing so is pretty low priority so long as Tomcat 9.x remains an actively maintained option.

There are no known issues with building guacamole-client.
As long as you have Maven and a version of the JDK installed (8 or
newer), things should build just fine.

This (upgrading Tomcat) does not pertain to the question at hand
(upgrading Guacamole). If you are also looking to upgrade your copy of
Tomcat, you need to instead use the latest release of Tomcat 9.x:
https://tomcat.apache.org/download-90.cgi
Tomcat 10.x uses a different and incompatible API which would require
correspondingly incompatible changes within Guacamole. Tomcat 9.x, on
the other hand, is actively maintained and compatible.
That's not to say support for Tomcat 10.x will never be added. Only that:
* Doing so while maintaining API compatibility is non-trivial, and
maintaining API compatibility is important.
* Doing so is pretty low priority so long as Tomcat 9.x remains an
actively maintained option.

Installing 1.5.2 on Debian 12, we met a few issues:
Minor
a) maven cannot find Javadoc and fails
b) maven guacamole build throws 4 x error as warnings
Major
c) tomcat 10 not supported.

Debian 11 is okay

First, I'll say that 1.5.3 is right around the corner, so you might not want to go to 1.5.2. There's a pretty impactful bug in 1.5.2 that gets fixed in 1.5.3, so if you use RDP connections, it's probably worth waiting for.
I can't help much with the Debian upgrade, but as far as Guacamole goes, you really just follow the same install process with the newer
versions:
* Download and compile guacd, and install it. One of the main keys, here, is to make sure that all of the old files from the 1.4.0 version get cleaned up/removed prior to installing the new version. I've found it easiest, when I install guacd (guacamole-server), to install to its own folder (I use /opt/guac), which makes it really easy to just move it out of the way or tar it up and remove it before doing the install of the new version.
* Download the Guacamole Client components, including the WAR file and any extensions that you use. Remove the old extensions and replace those with the newer ones, and then replace the WAR file with the new WAR file. There aren't any DB schema changes from 1.4.0 to 1.5.2, so you shouldn't need to worry about that during the update process.
