When replacing the spring file on a Linux system that does not have a GUI download the zip to a Windows system and uncompress the folder. Then using a SFTP program (Filezilla, WinSCP) copy the files to the Linux system. The Linux system must have SSH enable to allow a connection. to enable SSH on a Linux run the command systemctl start sshd
