Cautious about updating...

[lonesomejubilee]

Hey, As you can see from a few posts down, the last time i ran a standard Mac Software Update it crashed server, presumably because the new Java didn't work. So I am very leery about performing blind updates. I see there are updates for Java 6 and Security updates available. So should I update or no? Has anyone tried it?

Thanks, LJ

You are correct to be very cautious.

[color:red]You should never, ever use automatic updates of the OS on a FileMaker Server machine. Use the notify option instead. Be sure tostop all the services/daemons before running any updates,

Yeah, I don't automatically do it now, but I am wondering if the most recent one will hurt, has anyone tried it?
