Upgrade market app from UI and what folder to remove after that

Server
1

Continuing the discussion from Update needed and nobody:

Steps to reproduce

  1. Update for Market to version 0.6.2 is available.
  2. Check Market app versions in both folders: ‘apps’ and ‘apps-external’. Both are v.0.6.1.
  3. When I access the market app from the browser I get the message: "Please note: Since ownCloud X (10.0) every instance gets shipped with this app included. You do not need to install it separately. "

Expected behaviour

As we saw in the discussion before, I should upgrade the app from the marketplace and after that, delete the duplicated app from the ‘apps’ folder (in this case, the market app).

Actual behaviour

I am not sure how to proceed, as the note reads the market app is shipped with owncloud, so I understand the right place to be for this app is the ‘apps’ folder, and not the ‘apps-external’ folder.

Can you simply do the update via the occ command?
occ market:upgrade market

This will download the new version to the apps-external folder and update the database.
I just tested and it works pretty well.

By the way:
Your app list only shows the version once in /apps.

Hello @cscherm, thanks for your reply.

Your solution will upgrade the market app in the “apps-external” folder.

But what should I do with the market app that remains in the “apps” folder? Should I delete it?

@wildwebmaster Even your question wasn’t addressed to me: I would move the most recent version of market app to the apps folder. It’s the place it belongs.
