--- Comment #4 from Mark Thomas <ma...@apache.org> 2010-12-15 11:13:33 EST --- Some random thoughts on this. If this is implemented, separating CATALINA_HOME / CATALINA_BASE is one way to go since that will simplify the upgrade process. That then raises a number of additional questions: - Are multiple HOMEs supported? If so how? - Are multiple BASEs supported? If so how? - Does uninstall remove a HOME, all HOMEs? - If a HOME is uninstalled what happens to BASEs using it? That could all get quite complicated. The other approach is to just update the binaries (*.exe, *.jar) leaving the config as is. The more I think about it, the more 'do-able' this sounds. May need an upgrade specific read-me for any recommended config updates (changes to defaults, new settings etc). I'm leaving this open as I think it is worth doing (well, at least worth looking at in more detail) but it feels like a fair amount of work to get right. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
