Upgrading Archiva
Upgrading Archiva is straightforward, particularly if the directions for separating the base from the installation
are followed. You need to retain the following directories:
* <<<conf>>> - the configuration files can be reused across different versions. Note that when the standalone
version is used, <<<wrapper.conf>>> and <<<jetty.xml>>> may need to be replaced after upgrade and changes
reapplied. See specific notes in the version details below.
* <<<data>>> - all Archiva data. More specifically:
* <<<data/repositories>>> is portable across versions (both forwards and backwards).
* <<<data/databases/users>>> must always be retained as it contains the permissions and user information across
versions, even if LDAP is being used for authentication.
* <<<data/databases/archiva>>> exists for Archiva 1.3.x and below. This can be retained through upgrades, but
can also be regenerated at any time. This no longer exists in Archiva 1.4+.

The following describes instructions specific to upgrading between different versions.
* Upgrading Archiva to 1.4+
** Metadata Repository
~~TODO: metadata repository description
** Java Package Changes and Library Changes
All Java packages have changed from <<<org.apache.maven.archiva>>> to <<<org.apache.archiva>>> and have undergone
significant changes. If you have written custom consumers, are using the XML-RPC client, or interfacing with other
Java libraries the code will need to be adjusted.
** Configuration References
If you had used the undocumented ability to modify <<<application.xml>>> to alter the configuration search path, note
that in Archiva 1.4+ you must use the <<<org.apache.archiva>>> configuration search path instead of
<<<org.apache.maven.archiva>>>.
** Updated Jetty configuration
If you are using the Jetty standalone configuration with a custom
<<<jetty.xml>>>, note that it has been upgraded to Jetty 8 as of Archiva 1.4-M2.
You will need to recreate your customisations using the <<<jetty.xml>>> shipped
with Archiva.
In addition, you now need to ensure that a <<<temp>>> directory is created
inside the Archiva application base directory (alongside <<<conf>>>, <<<data>>>
and <<<logs>>>).
The default webapp context is now / (see {{{./standalone.html} Standalone Distribution}})
