In-Place Upgrade from 5.0 to 5.0.c?

Hi,I was looking for instructions to perform an in-place upgrade from version 5.0 to 5.0.c. Our installation of 5.0 is pretty much out of the box with not customizations. Are there simple instructions available to complete this task and keeping the database in tact?Thanks,Rudy

If you don't care about your installation (for example if its not yet live) then just replace the war files.

If you do care then work on a cloned instance.

Thanks for the reply. Can you you confirm that the database schema has not changed? Also, is there a written procedure available for these point upgrades?

Thanks again!
Rudy

No need.

The database upgrade will be handled automatically. There shouldn't be any Alfresco documentation since its not a recommended path. However it is a standard java web app upgrade and something developers like me do every day.
