Upgrade Instructions

0. These instructions assume that you've already successfully upgraded from Dataverse Software 4.x to Dataverse Software 5 following the instructions in the Dataverse Software 5 Release Notes. After upgrading from the 4.x series to 5.0, you should progress through the other 5.x releases before attempting the upgrade to 5.4.1.

If you are running Payara as a non-root user (and you should be!), remember not to execute the commands below as root. Use sudo to change to that user first. For example, sudo -i -u dataverse if dataverse is your dedicated application user.

In the following commands we assume that Payara 5 is installed in /usr/local/payara5. If not, adjust as needed.

export PAYARA=/usr/local/payara5

(or setenv PAYARA /usr/local/payara5 if you are using a csh-like shell)

1. Undeploy the previous version.

  • $PAYARA/bin/asadmin list-applications
  • $PAYARA/bin/asadmin undeploy dataverse<-version>

2. Stop Payara and remove the generated directory

  • service payara stop
  • rm -rf $PAYARA/glassfish/domains/domain1/generated

3. Start Payara

  • service payara start

4. Deploy this version.

  • $PAYARA/bin/asadmin deploy dataverse-5.4.1.war

  • service payara start
