(To my thinking, ticket attachments should not require check in/out. If people feel the existing ticket specific permissions should not grant attachment privs, then maybe consider adding addition perms to Fossil.) > I plan on updating the cloud version of Fossil but I do have the latest on > my own machine.

Assuming you want Fossil server to auto-start on boot, you update the Fossil executable the same as on a physical PC in your possession, then you need to save your / partition by creating a custom system image (I forget what AWS calls these) then, from your AWS console, configure your instance to boot from the new system image. Hopefully AWS instance configuration and custom system image creation is easier than it used to be. It has been years since I ran an instance on AWS, so I can't really say much about how to do stuff on it, but everything I needed to do was documented back then, so I would expect it to be, now. (Hopefully not wishful thinking.)
