Up and running with Roller v5

It’s been bugging that I haven’t updated my Roller Weblogger instance from 4.0.1 to 5.0 – the “new” version is now a year or so old. Bit the bullet this evening and ran through the steps needed:

  • unzip archive and unjar the war file

  • create webapp/WEB-INF/classes/roller-custom.properties

  • edit relevant parts of the roller-custom.properties file

  • add postgresql.jar and the Javaxmail.jar to webapp/WEB-INF/lib
