I had, but I still have, to updated geonode 2.4 to the last version and you and Paolo Corti gave me some hints.</div>

Sincerely, I was a bit downhearted, because the procedure didn't seems so easy and quick and even because</div>

<div>1. Setup a new GeoServer 2.15.2 ( <a href="https://build.geo-solutions.it/geonode/geoserver/latest/geoserver-2.15.2.war">https://build.geo-solutions.it/geonode/geoserver/latest/geoserver-2.15.2.war</a> ) <br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(12, 100, 192);">I did it. I downloaded the geoserver-2.16.2 version, I installed it on tomcat8, and I set the GEOSERVER_DATA_DIR outside geoserver,</span></div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(12, 100, 192);">by using the param in the web.xml, at the end geoserver runs.</span></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>2. Transfer the Data Dir from the old GeoServer to the new one (I strongly suggest to backport **only** the workspace, datasets and styles, not the security subsystem)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(12, 100, 192);">I ported even the data from the old geoserver to the new

<div><span style="color: rgb(12, 100, 192);">I followed this documentation: </span><a href="https://docs.geonode.org/en/master/install/core/index.html#geonode-installation" id="LPlnk787454"><span style="color: rgb(12, 100, 192);">https://docs.geonode.org/en/master/install/core/index.html#geonode-installation</span></a></div>

not </span>to install in the virtualenv (I don't know how to use it, and I'm installing geonode not in local), I went for the production installation.</span></div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(12, 100, 192);">The guide is very different with the one I remembered for the version 2.4. Anyway I took the parts useful for me.</span></div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(12, 100, 192);">Although I have something wrong on geoserver, I proceed in the installation: I installed the dependences, I clone geonode from git,</span></div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(12, 100, 192);">I installed tomcat8 and geoserver (with an external data_dir), I restore my postgresql database dump (geonode and geonode_data).</span></div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(12, 100, 192);">I stopped at the webserver. The documentation recommend NGINX, but I have apache2 in my server.</span></div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(12, 100, 192);">My question is: Can I use Apache2? Is there a documentation to set up apache2 and geonode at this version? or I can follow the same concepts in the documentation we had for the geonode version 2.4. (In this latter
case I have already set a virtualhost dedicated to geonode).</span></div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(12, 100, 192);"><br>
</span></div>
<div><span style="color: rgb(12, 100, 192);">I'm at this point. Then I should go on through the geoserver/geonode authorization, right?</span></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>

<div>4. Run the "updatelayers" management command (see <a href="http://docs.geonode.org/en/master/admin/mgmt_commands/index.html#management-command-updatelayers">http://docs.geonode.org/en/master/admin/mgmt_commands/index.html#management-command-updatelayers</a> )</div>

<div>5. Update manually the missing permissions and metadata</div>

out - I saw in the online demo that now it is possible to import the metadata xml, which can help me to save time to restore.</span><br>
