Re: [Geoserver-users] How to do an easy Upgrade ?

[Senthil <sen...@gm...>]

Hi Robert

  It recommended to use external data directory than use geoserver war's
default data directory. To configure external data directory, you need to
update geoserver/WEB-INF/web.xml by uncomment the data dir configuration and
set your data folder.

  And recommended to take backup of data directory before do upgrade.
Upgrade is simple and as long as you SLD also saved inside data directory,
no manual work required.
