Reinstall or Upgrade Relayer

If you are upgrading from a previous version of the contentRelayer or reinstalling the same version of the contentRelayer, follow the procedure below.

1. Copy the RelayerInstaller folder to a temporary location on the content machine.
2. Uninstall the existing contentRelayer if it was already installed on the site. See the Uninstall Relayer section of this document for instructions about uninstalling the lmsRelayer.
3. Stop the Tomcat server by stopping the Apache Tomcat 4.1 service in the Administrative Tools:Services.
4. Open a DOS window and navigate to the RelayerInstaller folder on the temporary directory. Run the installer from the command prompt as follows:

   Install content <drive>:\\<TOMCAT Directory>

   Note: Use a double backslash as a separator. If there are spaces in the Tomcat directory, use quotation marks around the entire path.

   For example:

   Install content "C:\\tomcat50"

5. Restart the Tomcat server by starting the 'Apache Tomcat 4.1' service in the Administrative 1. Tools:Services.
6. Verify that Tomcat can access the upgraded Relayer. Open a browser and enter the following URL: 2.

   http://localhost:8080/contentRelayer?rcmd=ping

   If the Relayer has been upgraded successfully, a status report appears in the browser window, and the new Relayer version number appears in the report.

If you previously customized the default maximum log file size, you will need to re-customize after reinstalling or upgrading the Relayer. You can also customize the maximum size at any time later. Refer to the steps in the Log Files section of this document.
