Proper upgrade from from 2.1.7 to 2.2.2?

[irmantasp]

What is the process to upgrade composer lightning project and drupal installation from drupal/core (8.3.7) and acquia/lightning (2.1.7) to drupal/core (8.4) and acquia/lightning (2.2.2 at least)
simple composer update and drush updb / drupal update fails misserably after update of composer dependencies?

Hi @irmantasp. You should be able to use the following:

composer require acquia/lightning ~2.2.0 --no-update
composer update
