Update¶
The update steps divided in the ones for the management server and the ones for the PLOSSYS 5 server.
Hint - no Internet access
If the server on which you want to update the components does not have Internet access, use another server with Internet access for logging on to the SEAL Systems delivery platform and downloading the folder and packages. Then, copy the downloaded files to the server on which you want to update.
Notes Concerning the Update from 5.0.5 to 5.1.0¶
-
With PLOSSYS 5.1.0, the directory structure of the installation has been changed. Therefore, it is required to execute some manually steps before and after the update, refer to Manually Steps Before Updating the PLOSSYS 5 Server from 5.0.5 to 5.1.0 and Manually Steps After Updating the PLOSSYS 5 Server from 5.0.5 to 5.1.0.
-
When updating to PLOSSYS 5.1.0 and using easyPRIMA as of version 1.3.1, the
20181204_perl_soap-lite_1.27_part.zip
package has to be installed with easyPRIMA. Otherwise, the export from easyPRIMA to PLOSSYS 5 does not work and the500 SSL negotiation failed
error message is output to the logfile of easyPRIMA (edc.log
).Hint - stop the system
Before installing the
20181204_perl_soap-lite_1.27_part.zip
package, stop the system and all Perl processes completely (sysstop -full
). Otherwise, the Perl environment will break. -
Up to version 5.0.5, an error sheet was output in case of error. As of version 5.1.0, the error sheet is not output by default but can be activated by setting
PRINT_ERROR_SHEET
toY
. ThePRINT_ERROR_SHEET
environment variable is available as of version 5.1.0.
Notes Concerning the Update from 5.1.0 to 5.2.1¶
The Consul service has been replaced by a newer incompatible version. Therefore, the system configuration has to be exported before the update and imported again after the update, refer to Manually Steps Before Updating the PLOSSYS 5 Server from 5.1.0 to 5.2.1 and Manually Steps After Updating the PLOSSYS 5 Server from 5.1.0 to 5.2.1.
In MongoDB, a shared replica set has to be configured, refer to Configure MongoDB in a Cluster for the cluster mode or Configure a Shared Replica Set and Initialize the Database (Only for Single Server Mode) for the single server mode.
Some services have been replaced by other services or have become obsolete and have to be removed manually after updating, refer to Manually Steps After Updating the PLOSSYS 5 Server from 5.1.0 to 5.2.1.
