Typically this will be on all active branches (9.4 and 10.0), but if the issue is significant we also will do 9.2 and 9.3 releases as well. There are no security fixes for jetty < 9 > > 2.

Just replace the ZIP file? > The intention of the jetty-home vs jetty-base layout is that you should not put any of your modifications into the unpacked jetty distribution - instead you put them all into a jetty-base directory. You can then upgrade simply by changing which jetty-home directory you are using. The following command sequence illustrates this: # set the jetty version JETTY_HOME=/opt/jetty-9.4.25 # create your application base directory mkdir myapp-base cd myapp-base # configure a server in the base directory java -jar $JETTY_HOME --create-startd --add-to-start=http,webapp,deploy vi start.d/server.ini # deploy your application cp $HOME/src/myapp/target/myapp.war webapp # start the server java -jar $JETTY_HOME # stop the server ^C # upgrade jetty JETTY_HOME=/opt/jetty-9.4.27 # start the upgraded server java -jar $JETTY_HOME > > Any help would be highly appreciated! > > Best, > Yicheng > > > > -- > Sent from: http://jetty.4.x6.nabble.com/Jetty-User-f3247280.html > _______________________________________________ > jetty-users mailing list > [email protected] > To unsubscribe from this list, visit > https://www.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/jetty-users > -- Greg Wilkins <[email protected]> CTO http://webtide.com
