How to upgrade

...

between 3.x

...

Beginning with release 3.0.0 the configuration of MH was been completely revamped. In order to upgrade from release 2.2.x to release 3.x you will have to provide a new configuration file. We recommend to completely uninstall the old version (stop the service, remove the service, move the old software installation and the configuration file to an archive location). Subsequently install the new version,  read carefully the provided documentation and write a new configuration file.
