Introduction
This section describe the necessary steps to upgrade from ERS7.0.0 - ERS7.0.1 to ERS7.1.0.
Installation
Do NOT attempt to install version 7.1.0 over on the same location as an existing version 7.0.1 installation as this would cause ERS 7.1 not to start up correctly.
The minumum Java Run Time requirement for version 7.1 is Java 5_08 and above
License
Configuration
Do NOT copy all configuration files in <ERS7.0.1_installation>/config over to <ERS7.1.0_installation>/config as this would cause ERS 7.1 not to start up correctly.
Instead, copy each piece of information from the old configuration file in version 7.0.1 or earlier to the new configuration file in version 7.1
e.g. In your current ERS setup, port number 8003 is used. To migrate this, simply edit the new ERS.xml in 7.1.0 accordingly.
Core Engine
The default port used for ERS 7.1 is 8080. Please note that entering an invalid port number in ERS.xml will cause ERS7.1 not to start up.
External Jars
Please copy all existing jars in ERS7.0.1 ext folder to the new ERS7.1.0 ext folder.
Repository and Users/Roles
To migrate 7.0.1 repository and user/roles information :
- Ensure that ERS 7.0.1 is not started ( Failure to do so will cause missing information to be migrated )
- Zip <ERS7.0.1_installation>/db as db.zip
- Ensure that ERS 7.1.0 is not started
- Unzipped db.zip ( as created in Step 2 ) onto Zip <ERS7.1.0_installation>/db
- Please doub-check that the new db folder contain subfolders system and fs
- Start ERS 7.1.0. The repository and user/role information will be successfully migrated.
API
Ensure that your J2EE solutions’ environment are updated with the new library jar files from the ERS7.1.0 server installation.
Demo Servlet
With effect from version 7.1 onwards, Elixir Demo Servlet will be available as a separate download at
