In My project, Norconex 2.8 is used. I want to update to latest version, How can I install latest version of norconex through ssh or browser cli of gcloud.

The Web Crawler is distributed as a self-contained zip package. It does not require any installation per se. You simply download, extract, and use the provided collector-http.bat or collector-http.sh scripts to launch it. To download the latest version in Linux, you may use the scp command.

You will be upgrading from version 2.8 to 3.0.2. Version 3 was a major release and there were breaking changes. Please take a look at the Change Log and upgrade your configuration(s) accordingly. Version 3 requires Java 8 or higher.

Thanks for reply @ohtwadi
In project, I am using Norconex 2.8, need to upgrade to 3.0.2, for that I need to simply download and extract the new package from norconex officila site or is there any command which I run will do that.

If I will download and extract, then what will happen to the old version. As I am using in production, so I need clear picture of impact and cons

I strongly recommend you do some testing in a non-prod environment first to understand what a fiesable upgrade process would be within your environment.

The installation page from the Crawler manual may prove useful.
