Upgrade from v5.5 to 6.3

DerekTP5 months ago

Hi... we currently run Traccar v5.5 on Windows Server but that uses an old version of the Jetty webserver with some vulnerabilties. Would like to upgrade, but a couple of questions:

  1. Does the latest version of Traccar include updates to Jetty?
  2. What steps do I need to take to upgrade v5.5 to v6.3 - other than backing up the d/b and config files, can I just run the new setup, or do I need to uninstall the older version?

I'm an applications developer and not familiar with the various layers used by Traccar, so if it's possible to point me to an idiot's guide (click this, click that) that would be perfect! :-)

  1. Yes.
  2. Have you checked the official documentation?

Thanks Anton. Yes, I found an 'upgrade' page but it was referring to upgrades from v3.x; if that's still valid now that's perfect. Great that you've kept things straightforward.
I appreciate your help.

It is valid.
