   15: <h3>Upgrading LON-CAPA files</h3>
   16: <p>
   17: Download the most current
   18: <a href="http://install.lon-capa.org/versions/loncapa-current.tar.gz">
   19: loncapa-current.tar.gz</a>.
   20: </p>
   21: <table bgcolor="#aaaaaa" border="1">
   22: <tr><td><tt>wget http://install.lon-capa.org/versions/loncapa-current.tar.gz
   23: </tt>
   24: <br />
   25: <tt>tar xzvf loncapa-current.tar.gz</tt>
   26: <br />
   27: <tt>cd loncapa</tt></td></tr>
   28: </table>
   29: <p>
   30: The <strong>UPDATE</strong> command will refresh your filesystem with all
   31: the latest LON-CAPA software.
   32: </p>
   33: <table bgcolor="#aaaaaa" border="1">
   34: <tr><td><tt>./UPDATE</tt></td></tr>
   35: </table>
   36: <a name="checkrpms" />
   37: <h3>Checking your Linux RPMs</h3>
   38: <p>
   39: If you are using RedHat, the <strong>CHECKRPMS</strong> command will check the RPMs on your machine
   40: against an FTP repository. Otherwise, you may need to update software
   41: manually.
   42: </p>
   43: <table bgcolor="#aaaaaa" border="1">
   44: <tr><td><tt>./CHECKRPMS</tt></td></tr>

   48: <a name="testing" />
   49: <h3>Testing to see if the LON-CAPA server is operational</h3>
   50: <p>
   51: The <strong>TEST</strong> command will check the installation software,
   52: the perl libraries on your system, the MySQL database, and
   53: will also automatically test the real-time operation of the 
   54: LON-CAPA Apache web server.
   55: </p>
   56: <table bgcolor="#aaaaaa" border="1">
   57: <tr><td><tt>./TEST</tt></td></tr>
   58: </table>
   59: <p>
   60: Using the <strong>TEST</strong> command will likely
   61: be an iterative process.
   62: It is normal to expect that the <strong>TEST</strong> command
   63: will recommend you perform various steps to ensure optimal
   64: performance of your LON-CAPA server.
