Upgrading point releases

[Debbie Shapiro <DS...@cardiacscience.com>]

Hello -

I see on the apache site that there are notes for upgrading from one
whole version to another, but I don't see anything regarding minor point
releases. Is there somewhere that someone can refer me for upgrade
instructions when going from 7.0.0 to 7.0.2, for example? Is it always a
full installation and then moving pertinent web application files into
the new installation?

Not really, since such an upgrade should border on the trivial.  But in the special case where no releases for a major level have reached the stable stage, there's a somewhat larger chance of incompatible changes being introduced in a dot level.  Once a stable version is released, the chance of that is practically nil, unless some security-related fix dictates otherwise.

Pretty much.  Safest to install in a different directory than your current Tomcat one so you have a quick fallback if something goes awry.  You will have to update conf/*.xml files with any site-specific changes, and insure that your startup scripts and/or services know about the new location.
