Upgrading to Spatial Studio 24.2.0

If you are running a Spatial Studio version:

• Earlier than 22.3.0: You must first download and successfully log into Spatial Studio 22.3.0. This is because a new version control mechanism is introduced for the metadata schema in 23.1.0 and Spatial Studio expects any existing metadata schema to already be at the version of Spatial Studio 22.3.0. Then you can upgrade to Spatial Studio 24.2.0.

  Otherwise, Spatial Studio version 24.2.0 will log the following SEVERE error message and abort the startup process.

  !!! Spatial Studio ver. 22.3.0 must be run at least once against your repository schema before upgrading to this version !!!

  See Upgrading to Spatial Studio 22.3.0 for more information.
• 22.3.0 or later: See Upgrading Spatial Studio to upgrade to Spatial Studio 24.2.0.
