how to let upgrade smoothly ?

[ktio]

Hi,

i try to upgrade from 3.5 to 3.6,

because i set nginx port is 80 and apache port is 8081,

when i uninstall nginx,apache will not back to 8081 automatically,

so,the http connection will be down and show with gateway error,

how to let upgrade smoothly ?


thank you

I have always done it that way. Uninstalled nginxcp and then reinstalled a newer version.

There is no real way to upgrade without experiencing some downtime.

uninstall/reinstall takes less then 2 minutes and don't cause any down time.

Yes that's true however if you have a few users downloading large files they will be disconnected during that few mins period. It's not a significant issue that we have run into so far.

when i download the new nginxadmin.tar file and extract it,will it overwrite my existing file well ? or i need to remove the old file manually before downloading new file and extract it ? thank you

It will overwrite them.
