Hi Friends!  
I would like to have confirm about the right CO upgrade procedure with Debian native packages (no Docker)

Are the following steps right?

1. make an /etc/loolwsd/loolwsd.xml backup
2. apt update
3. apt install loolwsd code-brand (do not overwrite local version /etc/loolwsd/loolwsd.xml)
4. systemctl restart loolwsd
5. journalctl -u loolwsd (check for any errors)
6. apt install collaboraoffice6.4

Thanks!

Davide

Hi!

Actually, steps 4 and 6 aren’t necessary, the service is automatically stopped and restarted after the upgrade, and the collaboraoffice6.4\* packages are dependencies for loolwsd, and installed during the upgrade.

But hopefully you have proceeded already, and found that all is fine even if you perform those extra steps. 🙂
