How to apply wowza patch (LINUX) EASY!

[capostrike93]

Hi, I've noticed that there is no information on how to do this, and maybe some linux newbies have no idea.

Is too easy

first download patch (n this example the patch 3.0.2)

wget http://www.wowzamedia.com/downloads/WowzaMediaServer-3-0-0/WowzaMediaServer3.0.0-patch3.zip 

now unzip the file

unzip WowzaMediaServer3.0.0-patch3.zip 

open the folder

cd WowzaMediaServer3.0.0-patch3 

optional, if you have changes in the default configs (example if have /conf/Applicaion.xml modified) you can backup configs, (later you need compare changes in news configs and your olds configs to make your customs configs >P)

cp /usr/local/WowzaMediaServer/conf/* /usr/local/WowzaMediaServer/conf-back/ 

copy all files to your wowzafolder (automatic override files >D)

yes | cp -a ./* /usr/local/WowzaMediaServer 

and restart your wowza (load new files >D)

service WowzaMediaServer restart 

Now your wowza is up to date

yes | cp -a ./* /usr/local/WowzaMediaServer 

Backup your conf folder first.

If the patch contains any files in the conf folder and you have made any customizations then these may be overwritten.
