  1. Stop the application server.
  2. Extract the new Magnolia bundle.
  3. Replace JAR files in the WEB-INF/lib folder of your old Magnolia instances with new JARs from the bundle.
    (warning) Note that Magnolia 5.7 updates numerous 3rd-party libraries - see Java 8, 9 and 10 runtime compatibility and library updates.
  4. Remove any module JARs you had previously removed from your instances. Add any modules you might have added.
    (warning) Note that we have removed a few modules from the add one pa-ons. Some of them you must remove. See Removing outdated add-on modules.
  5. Add new introduced modules - see Adding the privacy modules.
  6. Optional: Delete all indexes to give them a little boost. Delete the index folder under each workspace directory: repositories/magnolia/workspaces/<workspace>/index. Indexes are recreated on startup, which might take a while depending on the size of your repository.
  7. If you customized magnolia.properties files, compare the changes to the file in the new bundle. Properties may have been added and removed.
  8. Read release notes for all intermediary versions for any additional update tasks.
  9. Restart the application server.
  10. Using your browser, go to the Magnolia instances and run the Web update.
