| | | **NOTE:**<br/>
|
|---|
| | | If you change the name of the service from *gitblit* you must also change the name of `gitblitw.exe` to match the new service name otherwise the connection between the service and the utility is lost, at least to double-click execution.
|

| | |
|
|---|
| | | #### VM Considerations
|
|---|
| | | By default, the service installation script configures your Windows service to use your default JVM. This setup usually defaults to a client VM.<br/>
|
|---|
| | | If you have installed a JDK, you might consider using the `gitblitw.exe` utility to manually specify the *server* VM.
|
|---|
| | |
|
|---|
| | | 1. Execute `gitblitw.exe`
|
|---|
| | | 2. On the *Java* tab uncheck *Use default*.
|
|---|
| | | 3. Manually navigate your filesystem and specify the server VM with the `...` button<br/><pre>
|
|---|
| | | Java Virtual Machine:
|
|---|
| | | C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\server\jvm.dll</pre>
|
|---|
| | |
|
|---|
| | | #### Command-Line Parameters
|
|---|
| | | Command-Line parameters override the values in `gitblit.properties` at runtime.
|

| | |

| | | **Example**
|
|---|
| | |
|
|---|
| | | java -jar gitblit.jar --userService c:\myrealm.properties --storePassword something

| | | ## Upgrading Gitblit
|
|---|
| | | Generally, upgrading is easy.
|
|---|
| | |
|
|---|
| | | Since Gitblit does not use a database the only files you have to worry about are your configuration file (`gitblit.properties` or `web.xml`) and possibly your `users.properties` file.
|
|---|
| | |
|
|---|
| | | Any important changes to the setting keys or default values will always be mentioned in the [release log](releases.html).
|

| | |
|

| | | ### Upgrading Gitblit WAR

| | | 3. Deploy new WAR and overwrite the `web.xml` file with your backup
