To update Magnolia:

  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.
  4. Remove any module JARs you had previously removed from your instances. Add any modules you might have added.
  5. Optional: 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.
  6. If you customized magnolia.properties files, compare the changes to the file in the new bundle. Properties may have been added and removed.
  7. Read release notes for all intermediary versions for any additional update tasks.
  8. Restart the application server.
  9. Using your browser, go to the Magnolia instances and run the Web update.

Read the release notes for the version you are updating to and all intermediate versions.
