Modify the PFRSetupTrial.xml file

The PFRSetupTrial.xml file is located in the <InstallationDirectory>\InForm\Bin folder.

  1. In the TrialFolder section, change the UserRoot tag to ReportsUpgrade.

    ReportsUpgrade is a tag that triggers the reporting specification upgrade.

  2. Change the value of the connectionstring from dbconnectionstring to the Oracle connection string for the Reporting and Analysis database.

    In a single database configuration, use the study database connection string.

  3. Update the DBUID parameter with the UserID of the study owner.
  4. When you run the PFRInit command you have to pass the following parameters on the command line:
    • sysadmin_namespace—Oracle Directory Server admin namespace.
    • sysadmin_uid—User name for the Oracle Directory Server admin namespace.
    • sysadmin_pass—Password you chose when creating the Oracle Directory Server admin namespace user.
    • publisher_namespace—Custom Authentication Provider (CAP) namespace. Enter informcap.
    • publisher_uid—InForm study user who is a member of the Publisher and Sponsor Users (or Site Users) Reporting groups.
    • publisher_pass—Password of the InForm study user.
    • dispatcher_url—Internal URI that the InForm server uses to communicate with the Cognos Analytics 11 server.
    • trial_name—Name of the InForm study.
    • reportdb_pass—Study PID.
    • same_env_report_upgrade—Indicate if the PFRInit command is being run as part of an upgrade in an existing environment. Values are Y or N.

    There is also an option to pass these values in a parameter file. For more information, see the Installation Guide.

    Note: You must use the most current version of the PFRSetupTrial.xml file, located in the <InstallationDirectory>\InForm\bin directory for this release. Do not use a backed up version of this file from an earlier release of the InForm software.
