    Installed with the Interactive Installer

    Upgrading an instance - installed with the Interactive Installer - is smooth:

    • The New interactive installer does NOT overwrite your previous [cc-config/config/application.properties] file.

    The easiest way is to run cc-commandline-handler that has the following options:

    • help *Prints important information about the * cc-commandline-handler.
    • run Runs all cc services as foreground applications. (This is the default.)
    • start Starts all cc services as background applications.
    • status Prints status information about all cc services that were started.
    • stop Stops all cc services that were started.
    • install Installs all cc services as system services.
    • uninstall Uninstalls previously installed cc system services.

    How to restart

    Run

    1. cc-commandline-handler stop
    2. cc-commandline-handler start
