Upgrading the Servoy Application Server to a new version can be done through the command line.

The Servoy Application Server needs to be connected to the internet for the upgrade to succeed.

The command line upgrade process does not support upgrading to a new major version.

To upgrade a Servoy Application Server, open a command line/terminal window and browse to the <servoy>/application_server directory and execute the following command:

java -jar servoy_updater.jar
java -jar servoy_updater.jar -beta

Some Java environments start with IPv6 Stack. When actually running on IPv4, this might cause issues in the download of the update. Add '-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true' to the end of the update command. For more information, see Network errors.
