Pre-Upgrade Tasks

Before you upgrade Web Server, perform the tasks described below.

• Verify Current Version Information

• Upgrade Web Server Dependencies

Verify Current Version Information

Verify the current version of Web Server before you upgrade.

To Verify Current Version Information

1. Examine the subcomponent error log at:

   WebServer-base\admin-server\logs\error

   WebServer-base\https-hostname.domain\logs\error

   The Web Server version information is as follows.

   Release 5U1

   Sun Java System Web Server 7.0 U1

   Release 5

   Sun Java System Web Server 7.0

Upgrade Web Server Dependencies

It is generally recommended that all Java ES components on a computer system (and in a computing environment) be upgraded to Release 5U1. Release 5U1 Web Server has no hard upgrade dependencies, but upgrade is only certified when shared components have also been upgraded. The upgrade from Release 5 to Release 5U1 requires that Windows Installer patch (126910–02) is already applied.

Backing Up Web Server Data

The Web Server upgrade from Release 5 to Release 5U1 does not modify the Release 5 configuration data. You do not need to back up current data.
