Applying upgrade scripts to Empirica Signal 7.3 or 8.0.x schemas (upgrade only)
Perform these steps using the non-privileged user account on the application server.
- Navigate to the Database directory, for example:
$ cd /u01/stage/Database
- If you are upgrading from version 7.3.3.3/4/5 to 8.1.0.2:
- Execute the update_7_3_3_3_to_8_0.sql script as the Empirica Signal database user, for example:
$ sqlplus webvdme@<TNS_NAME> @update_7_3_3_3_to_8_0.sql
A password prompt appears.
- Type the Empirica Signal database account password.
- Review the disabled_userlist.txt file in the current directory.
The file contains user names for accounts that are locked out of the application due to excessive failed login attempts.
- After the upgrade is complete, you may log in to the Empirica Signal application and disable these users. For more information, see the User Guide and Online Help.
- Create the empirica_admin account:
- Execute the create_dbadmin_user.sql script as the Oracle sys user, for example:
$ sqlplus sys@<TNS_NAME> as sysdba @create_dbadmin_user.sql webvdme
A password prompt appears.
- Type the Oracle sys account password.
A second password prompt appears.
- Type a password for the empirica_admin account.
- Retype the password.
After a few moments, the script is completed.
- Type exit to change user accounts.
- To complete the schema upgrade to version 8.0, perform the following command:
$ sqlplus system@<TNS_NAME> @update_proxy_authentication.sql webvdme
- When prompted, type the Oracle system account user password.
- After the script completes, type exit.
- If you use the Topics feature, update the Empirica Topics schema:
- Execute the update_twc_7_3_3_3_to_8_0.sql script as the topic_workflow user, for example:
$ sqlplus topic_workflow@<TNS_NAME> @update_twc_7_3_3_3_to_8_0.sql
A password prompt appears.
- Type the topic_workflow account password.
A prompt for the Empirica Signal database account appears.
- Type the name of the Empirica Signal database account. For example, webvdme.
- Execute the update_twc_7_3_3_3_to_8_0.sql script as the topic_workflow user, for example:
- Execute the update_7_3_3_3_to_8_0.sql script as the Empirica Signal database user, for example:
- As the Empirica Signal database user, execute the update_8_0_to_8_1.sql script to update the schema from 8.0 to 8.1, for example:
- For Empirica Signal 8.0:
$ sqlplus webvdme@<TNS_NAME> @update_8_0_to_8_1.sql
A password prompt appears.
- For Empirica Signal 8.0:
- Type the Empirica Signal database account password.
Note: If you upgrade from Empirica Signal 8.0.1, an error message appears when ALTER TABLE PASSWORD_HISTORY is attempted, because the column being added already exists in the table. This is expected behavior and can be ignored.
