That might work. Since Tomcat doesn't install any files in /etc, I don't think installing a new version of Tomcat or uninstalling the old one will remove them. I would allow Tomcat to install itself into .../apache-tomcat-4.1.40 instead of trying to make the directory names match. You might confuse yourself by having a 4.1.40 install in a directory named 4.1.24. You could also use the magic of symlinks like this: /usr/local/tomcat -> /usr/local/apache-tomcat-4.0.40 Then, all your scripts can point to /usr/local/tomcat and not a specific version. You could always read the scripts to find out what's going on. I suspect they are quite simple. At this point, if you don't know what to do, perhaps you should get someone else to perform this upgrade. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkqT9jwACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PA2/ACePaJtVt4cMz+td19qVzkclWjK yWYAn25Inu0ooDvEzRiS8qDdU5jjr7C4 =YIiJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
