Re: upgrade from 0.8.4 ubuntu
The Guacamole documentartion say that on ubuntu I can install Guacamole
simply with:
apt-get install guacamole-tomcat
I don't know why I can't upgrade it in the same way...
Anyway I think I wil start again from scratch, wish for luck.

Whatever documentation you are reading is not part of the Guacamole
project's official documentation, all of which can be found, here:
https://guacamole.apache.org/doc/gug/. If you're reading documentation from
any site other than that, you need to contact the person who owns or
maintains that site about that documentation.
Luke's instructions in his reply may help you out, as well.
