Applying one patch to JOC Cockpit (starting with 1.13.4)

Starting with release 1.13.4 of JOC Cockpit only one patch can be apllied at a time.

The patches have the filename format joc.[VERSION]-patch[PATCHNUMBER].war. The patch-executor will reject other files.

This is the completely patched web application of JOC Cockpit. The latest patch will always include all available patches since the release.

Applying patches automatically

  1. To apply the patch remove all previous patches from the patches folder.
  2. Copy the patch you want to apply into the patches folder.
  3. As above double click the patch-executor-VERSION.jar in the patches\bin folder of your JOC Cockpit installation.

...

  • -?, -h, --help

Rolling back an already patched version

...

from the command line

To roll back already applied patches from the command line type:

...

If a copy of the joc.war file already exists in the archive folder, it will not be overwritten. This ensures that only the original joc.war file is archived and not an already patched one. It also ensures that the patch executor is able to perform a rollback to the original state. This also makes sure, that you can choose which patches to apply at any moment in time, e.g. you have already applied the patches "x", "y" and "z". If you choose to apply only patches "x" and "z" going further you can do so by deleting the patch "y" from the patches folder and simply run the patch executor again. 

When a new installation is performed on an existing JOC Cockpit Installation the Setup will clean up the patches- and the archive folder of the previous installation.
