_bm0 Run update script

Top  Previous  Next

In some cases, when you update your Projetex 7.0 Server Administrator or Projetex 7.0 Workstation, database needs be updated as well. Usually database version is automatically updated during Projetex 7.0 Server setup, however there may be exceptions. In this case database can still be updated manually by running a database update script.

Update scripts are always installed together with Projetex 7.0 Server Administrator and can be found in ...\Projetex 7.0 Server\DBUpdates\ folder in the form of .PTU files.

To update database using a database update script:

1. Turn your database offline by clicking Go offline button.

2. Click Run Update Script button from the Database tab of the Projetex 7.0 Server Administrator.

3. Locate the script which updates your current database version to next version. Current database version is displayed in Database Version: string on the Database tab of the Projetex 7.0 Server Administrator. Repeat update operation until you have most current database version.

 

exampleExample: Installed database version is 2007.53.0 and software update requires 2007.55.0 database version. In this case you need to consecutively run two updates (first dbx53to54.ptu and then dbx54to55.ptu). Update files are not necessarily updating from the one number to the next.

 

Note: Projetex Server Administrator does mandatory backup before each database update operation, for maximum security of data in case anything goes wrong during the update.

Note: You can run Update Script command in offline mode only.
