Does upgrading traccar via running the installer delete your existing configuration files?

Paul7 years ago

I upgraded from 3.145 to 3.15. I read the install guide, and not the upgrade guide., so I just ran the installer.

Did it just silently blow away my database and e-mail server configurations, overwriting the traccar.xml files? Did it back them up somewhere or do I need to re-configure everything?

Configuration files are overwritten, but database should be fine.

Thanks! I'll go reconfigure, it's only 30 minutes.

It'd be awesome if it moves them to a .old backup file, or performs an automatic migration, as a future feature. My impression was traccar.xml would make the upgrade but default.xml would get lost.
