How can I upgrade to a newer release of the Community Edition source code?

You can upgrade Source Code release by following these instructions:

  1. Download the new source release from Sourceforge and unzip to a suitable location on your hard drive. It is important that you do not delete or overwrite the previous installation of SSL-Explorer.

  2. Once you have extracted the zip file locate your previous installation go to the $SSLX_HOME/sslexplorer/conf/repository/archives and delete any extensions with a name that begins with sslexplorer-community or sslexplorer-enterprise.

  3. Now copy the contents of $SSLX_HOME/sslexplorer/db to the same location in the new installation.
    Repeat this process for the $SSLX_HOME/sslexplorer/conf and copy it's contents to the same location in the new installation.

  4. Open a command line console and run "ant console" or "ant start" in the new installation location, as the server starts up it will upgrade the previous database and configuration files to the latest versions keeping all your information intact.Once the Installation Wizard has started you can cancel the process as you do not have to run the installation wizard again for the new installation.
