Abstract: A server updates software on a control device of a vehicle through wireless communication. The server includes a processor and an interface. The processor performs a process of obtaining user's consent to update the software. The processor instructs to start an update process of first software and second software when the consent to update the first software and the second software is obtained. When an error occurs during the update process of the first software, the processor requests again the consent to update the first software and selectively requests again the consent to update the second software based on predetermined connection between the first software and the second software, before performing again the update process of the first software and the second software.

Abstract: A server determines whether a vehicle is being driven. The server sends a notification, requesting a user of the vehicle to approve processing related to a software update of a control device installed in the vehicle. When the server determines that the vehicle is being driven, the server sends the notification to an in-vehicle terminal mounted on the vehicle. When the server determines that the vehicle is not being driven, the server sends the notification to a mobile terminal portable by the user of the vehicle.
