Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to How are upgrades accomplished?

This is precisely why we want more modularity in the ACS (see other threads about this). Currently, you would have to:

- load the new data model, hope it doesn't conflict

- install the tcl/*.tcl files

- install the www/module_name/* files

- install the templates/module_name/* files

- restart your server

- hope for the best

This is actually not so bad. It's much worse if you need to upgrade an existing module where a data model changes...
