Hi All, we are upgrading our apache httpd 2.0 to 2.2 on Windows. We
have currently 3 apache 2.0 servers, each has 4 different httpd
nodes(ports 80,81,82,83).
In case we encounter issues after the upgrade.
What are the best approach to roll back to previous version?
Can we use the same ports without overwriting the httpd 2.0
installation folder?
Does the new installation overwrites any related registry entries? If
there are any.
Appreciate your inputs. Thanks
THE WAY I DID IT FOR THE FIRST TIME WAS LIKE THIS:
1) Took an image of the hard disk of the server; Some call this cloning
of the HD
2) I then copied the configuration file on to a flash drive;
3) I then installed the latest version of apache in the normal way;
4) I re-copied the configuration file back to the server from the flash
drive;
5) rebooted the server;
6) Everything was OK
My server is pretty small and the traffic is almost negligible. About
2500 people in a day.
Now the purpose of cloning the drive to to ensure that should anything
goes wrong, you can always undo your work by putting back the old server
back using the image files. You do need to have either Norton Ghost or
Acronis software to do this.
Hope this helps.
