39 Update the Webserver</a></h1>
41 <p>The webserver should be updated at least with each stable release.
42 When updating, please follow these steps to make sure that no broken
43 links, inconsistent contents or permission problems will occur (as it has
44 many times in the past!):</p>
46 <p>If you have changed anything in the stable-branch documentation source
49 <table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%">
52 <pre class="PROGRAMLISTING">
59 <p>That will generate <tt class=
60 "FILENAME">doc/webserver/user-manual</tt>, <tt class=
61 "FILENAME">doc/webserver/developer-manual</tt>, <tt class=
62 "FILENAME">doc/webserver/faq</tt>, <tt class=
63 "FILENAME">doc/webserver/index.html</tt> automatically.</p>
65 <p>If you changed the manual page sources, generate <tt class=
66 "FILENAME">doc/webserver/man-page/privoxy-man-page.html</tt> by running
67 <span class="QUOTE">"<b class="COMMAND">make man</b>"</span>. (This is a
68 separate target due to dependencies on some obscure perl scripts [now in
69 CVS, but not well tested]. See comments in <tt class=
70 "FILENAME">GNUmakefile</tt>.)</p>
72 <p>If you want to add new files to the webserver, create them locally in
73 the <tt class="FILENAME">doc/webserver/*</tt> directory (or create new
74 directories under <tt class="FILENAME">doc/webserver</tt>).</p>
76 <p>Next, commit any changes from the above steps to CVS. All set? If
77 these are docs in the stable branch, then do:</p>
79 <table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%">
82 <pre class="PROGRAMLISTING">
89 <p>This will do the upload to <a href="http://www.privoxy.org/" target=
90 "_top">the webserver</a> (www.privoxy.org) and ensure all files and
91 directories there are group writable.</p>
93 <p>Please do <span class="emphasis"><i class="EMPHASIS">NOT</i></span>
94 use any other means of transferring files to the webserver to avoid
95 permission problems. Also, please do not upload docs from development
96 branches or versions. The publicly posted docs should be in sync with the
97 last official release.</p>
