Hi @Kazembe

This depends on how you installed it in your windows. Which method did you follow to install a local instance?

Thanks!

Hi @Kazembe,

To upgrade/update the dhis2 in windows I do:

  1. Backup your database (if something goes wrong you can restore)
  2. Stop apache tomcat service
  3. Locate the webapps folder inside the apache tomcat. Delete the dhis WAR file, after that drop de new release inside the same folder.
  4. Restart the apache tomcat service

Note: If does not work after updating, check the logs
