The latest release of VolanoChat is Version 2.1.10, with several important new features and bug fixes. You can download it from the section for your operating system under the Installation Chapter.
Upgrading from a previous release of VolanoChat consists of the following steps for the server administrator:
Install the new version of VolanoChat into its own directory,
vchat2.1.y by default, where y
is the latest release number.
Copy over the server configuration files from the the older release to the new installation directory. Also copy over your license key. For example, on Unix:
cp vchat2.1.x/*.txt vchat2.1.y cp vchat2.1.x/*.key vchat2.1.y
and on Windows:
copy vchat2.1.x\*.txt vchat2.1.y copy vchat2.1.x\*.key vchat2.1.y
where x is the old release number and
y is the new release number.
On Windows, you may instead use the Windows Explorer to drag and drop
these files from your old vchat2.1.x folder to the
new vchat2.1.y folder.
Do the same for your applet configuration files, along with any image, sound, or Web files you have modified. For example, on Unix:
cp vchat2.1.x/vcclient/*.html vchat2.1.y/vcclient cp vchat2.1.x/vcclient/*.txt vchat2.1.y/vcclient cp vchat2.1.x/vcclient/*.gif vchat2.1.y/vcclient cp vchat2.1.x/vcclient/*.jpg vchat2.1.y/vcclient cp vchat2.1.x/vcclient/*.au vchat2.1.y/vcclient
and on Windows:
copy vchat2.1.x\vcclient\*.html vchat2.1.y\vcclient copy vchat2.1.x\vcclient\*.txt vchat2.1.y\vcclient copy vchat2.1.x\vcclient\*.gif vchat2.1.y\vcclient copy vchat2.1.x\vcclient\*.jpg vchat2.1.y\vcclient copy vchat2.1.x\vcclient\*.au vchat2.1.y\vcclient
where x is the old release number and
y is the new release number.
On Windows, you may instead use the Windows Explorer to drag and drop
these files from your old vchat2.1.x\vcclient folder
to the new vchat2.1.y\vcclient folder.
If you have moved the vcclient folder to your Web server
public directory, make sure to do the same with the new applet
vcclient folder.
You'll want to update your older property files to include the new server and applet properties available in the latest version. See below for the list of new and modified properties for the VolanoChat server and applets.
Stop the VolanoChat server and restart the new version in the
vchat2.1.y directory. See the
Installation chapter for details on how
to start and stop the VolanoChat server for your operating system.
