Actually, I don't want to have parallel versions going; 7.0.53 needs to go
away to address the vulnerabilities found in the audit scan. Ideally
everything should be the same as it is now, with the only difference being
the app is using 7.0.69 rather than 7.0.53.
Hi Paul,
What I would do, is keep a copy of the files in conf directory/folder of
your old Tomcat instance as well as a copy of the files in webapps (I
suppose you have drop the war file into that directory/folder). You then
have a copy of all the files you need in case something went wrong or you
need to configure something you don't remember.
Then I would install the new Tomcat version. Configure the server.xml (I
suppose you did previously for the old version and know how to modify it to
reflect your particular needs) and then drop the war file in the new
wepapps directory if this is how you installed the old version of the HP
application. I suppose you have some kind of instructions from HP on how to
install their application. It is just like you install a brand new Tomcat.
The important part is to keep a copy of the old stuff in case you need to
refer to your previous settings.
Regards,
Daniel

Thank you. I wasn't involved at all in the previous upgrade or the
original installation of Tomcat and/or HP Service Manager.
I got copies of both 7.0.53 and 7.0.69 off the Tomcat website, and
installed .53 first on a vmware vm, then tried running .69 over it to
see if it was just an easy upgrade, but it looks like Tomcat doesn't
make the upgrade that easy.
So, if I understand your suggestions correctly, would the following plan
of action work -
Make a backup of everything under C:\Program Files\Apache Software
Foundation\Tomcat 7.0\, in particular conf and webapps
Remove the current version of Tomcat (.53)
Install most recent version (.69)
Copy the contents of the conf and webapps folder back to the new install
There is a *.keystore file and a keystore.jks files in the root of
C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 7.0\ - I'm guessing
they are probably needed as well to get SSL working correctly (?)
Should that do the trick?
(I'm not familiar with WAR files - is that the normal way to install new
apps into Tomcat?)
