Server Update - Amazon Linux 2023

Hi
I am running the Traccar server on Amazon Linux 2023 (postgresql15). I am looking at the process of updating the server.

I have followed the uninstall instructions on this site:

 sudo systemctl stop traccar
 sudo systemctl disable traccar
 sudo rm /etc/systemd/system/traccar.service
 sudo systemctl daemon-reload
 sudo rm -R /opt/traccar

When I then install the latest traccar version:

sudo wget https://www.traccar.org/download/traccar-linux-64-latest.zip
sudo unzip traccar-linux-*.zip

I then get the following message:

[ec2-user@ip-1xx-xx-x-xx ~]$ sudo unzip traccar-linux-*.zipArchive:  traccar-linux-64-latest.zipreplace traccar.run? [y]es, [n]o, [A]ll, [N]one, [r]ename:

I select A, run the installer (sudo ./traccar.run), configure the file (sudo vi /opt/traccar/conf/traccar.xml) and start the server (sudo service traccar start).

The server seems to be running ok. Is there any other commands I should issue at the uninstall stage to stop the archive message or is what I have done ok. Am I leaving any unncessary files behind, which may cause a problem in the future.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Dave

It seems like you already have the old installation files in the folder. Specifically it tells you about "traccar.run", from what I can tell.

Hi Anton

Thanks for your reply. Is there a command I can use at the uninstall stage to remove the old installation files.

Thanks

That's not part of the installed files. That's the installation package that you extracted yourself.

Ok. Thanks for your help
