Archiva Upgrade

[Eric Fetzer <er...@gmail.com>]

Hi all!  I'm upgrading archiva 2.2.4 to 2.2.7 for the log4j vulnerability.
I'm going from the document at:

https://archiva.apache.org/docs/2.2.7/adminguide/upgrade.html

This doc says that I should copy forward the data/repositories folder, but
I don't have that folder.  My repositories folder is at the same level as
data.  Data only has databases, jcr, and remotes in it.

Should I copy forward the repositories folder where it is now to the 2.7
version or put it under data there?

Thanks,
Eric

Eric,

I also have data and repositories on the same level. My install--and it's
been a while--is Stanalone following the instructions for "Separating the
base from the installation" (
https://archiva.apache.org/docs/2.2.7/adminguide/standalone.html). So
Archiva is installed at /opt/apache-archiva and the rest--what the link
above calls 'data'--is at /u3/archiva, containing:

$ ls -F /u3/archiva
conf/  data/  groups/  logs/  nohup.out  repositories/  temp/

Does your setup look similar? So I think you can just update
/opt/apache-archiva. That's similar to how I install Tomcat--binaries one
place, config and apps in another.

No the group still exists, but there is basically no activity. You may have to wait awhile for your question to get answered. I think you question is the first activity on the list in many months.
