There are three steps for upgrading the software on your LON-CAPA server.


 

Upgrading LON-CAPA files

Download the most current loncapa.tar.gz.

The UPDATE command will refresh your filesystem with all the latest LON-CAPA software.

./UPDATE

Checking your Linux RPMs

The CHECKRPMS command will check the RPMs on your machine against an FTP repository.

./CHECKRPMS

Testing to see if the LON-CAPA server is operational

The TEST command will check the installation software, the perl libraries on your system, the MySQL database, and will also automatically test the real-time operation of the LON-CAPA Apache web server.

./TEST
