Railo 4.1.005 -> Railo 4.2.008 -> Lucee x.x.xxx

Hi there

I have Railo 4.1.005 running on a production site (JBoss/WAR) and wanted to
ask for advice how to upgrade to newer versions. I have read that it can be
done by downloading .rc files and drop them to the patches directory?

Actually the .rc will suffice. You can Download if from the download page.
Just drop it in the Railo-server/patches directory and restart Railo.
Done…

If this is correct, I have the following questions:

  • Is it just one .rc-File I have to download to bring Railo to 4.2.008
    or do I need to download all the .rc-Files since 4.1.005?
  • Where can the .rc-Files be downloaded?
  • Is there an .rc-File to bring Railo 4.2.008 to the latest Lucee
    version?

Best,

Daniel

Step one is to update Railo. You can do this from the server admin web
console, no need to copy files to weird places.
Probably not required.

Step two is to switch to Lucee :

Which boils down to removing one file and adding another.
