Old-style Upgrade
You should only use this upgrade method if you have previously installed the Menu Editor plug-in as described in Old-style Installation. Otherwise you need to follow the method described in Package-based Upgrade.
To upgrade the Menu Editor plug-in to version 3.5.0-1:
-
Read the release notes for your planned upgrade. Make a note of any special tasks that need to be carried out in connection with the upgrades.
-
Log in as
escenic
on your assembly host. -
Download the distribution file to a temporary location by entering:
$
cd /tmp/$
wget http://user:password@maven.escenic.com/com/escenic/menu-editor/menu-editor/3.5.0-1/menu-editor-3.5.0-1.zipwhere user and password are the user name and password you have received from Escenic.
-
Remove the old version of the Menu Editor plug-in from your Content Engine
plugins
folder.$
mv /opt/escenic/engine/plugins/menu-editor/ /tmp/ -
Unpack the downloaded installation package into the
plugins
folder:$
cd /opt/escenic/engine/plugins/$
unzip /tmp/menu-editor-3.5.0-1.zip -
Re-assemble the Content Engine by running the
ece
script:$
ece assemble -
If you are installing everything on one host, then skip this step.
Log in as escenic on each of your engine-hosts and copy
/var/cache/escenic/engine.ear
from the assembly-host. If you have installed an SSH server on the assembly-host and SSH clients on your engine-hosts, then you can do this as follows:$
ssh engine-host-ip-address$
scp -r escenic@assembly-host-ip-address:/var/cache/escenic/engine.ear /var/cache/escenic/where:
- engine-host-ip-address
-
is the host name or IP address of one of your engine-hosts.
- assembly-host-ip-address
-
is the host name or IP address of your assembly-host.
-
On each engine-host, deploy the EAR file by entering:
$
ece deployand then restart the Content Engine by entering:
$
ece restart -
Carry out any required upgrade tasks.
