Does anyone know where I can find instructions for performing a Domino upgrade on Linux for x86? It doesn’t seem to be listed in the official upgrade/install instructions.
Server is now Domino 8.5.2 on SUSE Linux 11.4 (32 bit).
Subject: You should be able to upgrade by running installer in a regular way
Same way as you installed 8.52.
Basically untar the tar file and run “./install” in GUI (if you have DISPLAY set correctly - I usually check with “xclock”), or console mode.
If you have problems /tmp/DominoInstall.log should have pointers if problems occurred early in process, later (after program directory was specified and install started) - DominoInstall.log will be in your Domino binaries directory.
Since you are upgrading it should be in /opt/ibm/lotus/notes/latest/linux/DominoInstall.log if you have default location (or similar if you have your own location specified).
Let me know if you have other problems that are not covered and we can troubleshoot it.
Thanks,

Thanks Irina.
I just wanted to be sure I knew how to launch install and didn’t need any extra switches or parameters.

Subject: Done
Went very smoothly. I had forgotten that the install now boots into the same GUI as the Windows install. I was remembering an all command line process.
