Upgrade Installation

  • Updated

If a previous version of InRule is already installed, you may upgrade it to the new version.  

To upgrade to a later version, click Upgrade Now.  

If you would prefer to leave the earlier version in place and install the new version also, choose a  side-by-side installation instead.

irCatalog Database Provider

In rare cases, the new version of InRule may have a different catalog database structure.

If you select to have the installer upgrade the database Now", specify the authentication type and credentials. You may select to upgrade the catalog later by selecting the "Manual update later" option.

To perform the manual upgrade, locate the scripts in the "C:\Program Files (x86)\InRule\irServer \RepositoryService\DbBuildScripts" directory. Within DbBuildScripts, navigate to the folder for the type of database selected, SqlServer or Oracle. From there, the sub-folder "UpgradeScripts" contains the scripts necessary for a catalog upgrade.  

The database name configured for the irCatalog service will be used to update all underlying database scripts (create, upgrade and utility) at this time. If you need to run the scripts later and change the database, you can do so by performing a find and replace of this database name.

The user executing the scripts will need the appropriate database permissions configured.

Click Next to proceed.

Prerequisite Check

If there are no checks to be made, this screen is not shown.

Select a prerequisite test to display more information in the Description and Notes areas.  If you would like to rerun the tests, click the Rerun Tests button.

After the prerequisite tests have been completed, click Next.
