 These instructions are for upgrading a currently operational version 2.x Shibboleth IdP. 
 
-1. Stop your IdP (or stop the servlet container, eg. Tomcat), and stop Apache httpd too, if you're using it.
-2. Make a back-up copy of your $IDP_HOME/conf directory (recent versions of the IdP installer should not overwrite your config unless you answer "yes" in point 7 below).

+2. Make a back-up copy of /opt/shibboleth-idp/conf directory (recent versions of the IdP installer should not overwrite config unless you answer "yes" in point 7 below).
 3. Download the .zip archive of the most recent Shibboleth IdP 2.x and unzip the archive. Do not use the .msi installer for upgrading an existing IdP 2.x installation.
-4. if you don't already have one, it's a good idea to create a source directory specifically for storing the IdP unzipped archives. This makes it easier to manage any additional libraries or branding you might have.
-5. Copy your additional libraries (e.g. JDBC drivers or plugins and/or filters, like uApprove) into the lib/ directory (i.e. lib/ inside the source directory where you unzipped the archive; not $IDP_HOME/lib/, which is inside the deployment directory).
-6. If using User Password authentication, reapply any branding you have made: ie. copy your customised login.jsp etc. pages into the /src/main/webapp subdirectory of the unzipped archive.

 7. Run the install script from the command line in the top-level directory of the unzipped archive (install.sh on Unix machines, install.bat on Windows).

+ * Provide the location of your $IDP_HOME directory: /opt/shiobboleth-idp
  * Answer "no" when the installer asks if you wish to overwrite your configuration files.
-8. If your config files have been overwritten (eg. due to human error) copy the files from your back-up back in to your $IDP_HOME/conf directory.
-9. Start your IdP (or the servlet container), and start Apache httpd too, if you're using it.
