Upgrading a Zimlet

Upgrading your customized Zimlet is the same steps as deploying a new Zimlet.

1.	The Zimlet zip files should have the same name. Copy the Zimlet zip file to the /opt/zimbra/zimlets-extra directory, replacing the older version.

2.	To deploy, type the following command

zmzimletctl deploy <zimlet.zip file name>

The Zimlet is copied to the /opt/zimbra/zimlets-deployed directory. If your Zimlet included a .jsp file, the .jsp file is coped to the /opt/zimbra/jetty/webapps/zimlet/<zimletnamefolder>.

3.	In order for the newer version to be available, flush the cache. From the administration console, select the server and click Flush cache. On the Flush server cache dialog, make sure that there is a check next to Flush zimlet cache.

To flush the cache from with command line, zmprov flushCache zimlet.

You do not enter the zimlet name.
