Running an in-place upgrade

You can run an in-place upgrade from any InForm 6.1.1.0, 6.1.1.1, 6.1.1.2, or 6.1.1.3 release. For all other releases you must migrate to the 6.1.1.4 release.

  1. Upgrade the Central Designer rules engine.
  2. Back up the InForm study and admin databases and files for the in-place upgrade.
  3. Update the InForm application server software.
  4. Update the database parameters.
  5. Run the in-place upgrade.
  6. Deploy the SQL profiles.
  7. Set the InForm 6.1 study properties.
  8. Enable network access rights for automated deployments on the InForm application server.
  9. Enable browser compatibility mode for the study.
  10. Create new database objects for the review schema (Optional).
  11. Start the InForm study and server.
  12. Install the Central Designer deployment package for each upgraded study.
  13. Upgrade all integration applications.

If the in-place upgrade fails for any reason, use the backup files you created in Step 2 to restore your InForm 6.0 or 6.1 environment. For more information, see Restore an InForm 6.1.1.0, 6.1.1.1, 6.1.1.2, or 6.1.1.3 release.
