    Upgrade the 1E Catalog

    Please consider the following when upgrading 1E Catalog:

    • Upgrade is supported from 1E Catalog 1.2.0 and later.
    • You only need to upgrade 1E Catalog to 2.0 if you intend to use it with Tachyon 5.0 and associated applications. 
    • If you are currently using SLA Platform 3.3 this will need to be upgraded to the SLA provided with Tachyon 5.0 in order to take advantage of the new 1E Catalog features.
    • The 1E Catalog 2.0 installer comes as part of Tachyon 5.0 and this should be installed or upgraded via the Tachyon Setup. Please refer to Tachyon 5.0 - Tachyon Setup for more details.

    Before upgrading

    Note

    If you are upgrading using a different installation account to the previous installation, you must set the new installation account as db_owner on the existing 1E Catalog database prior to running the upgrade.

    Note

    Before re-installing or upgrading 1E Catalog, backup its:

    • Database

    • Installation folder

    In particular make sure you have backups for the following files, if they have been customized:

    • Web.config - located in C:\Program Files\1E\Catalog\CatalogWebUI\
    • CatalogUpdateService.exe.config - located in C:\Program Files\1E\Catalog\CatalogUpdateService\

    Before running the upgrade, make sure all existing connections to the 1E Catalog database are closed, otherwise the upgrade hangs when connecting to the database.

    1. Close SQL Server Management Studio.
    2. Stop all SLA Platform services - if you have the SLA Platform installed and running.
    3. Stop all AppClarity services - if you have AppClarity 5.2 installed and running.
    4. Stop the 1E Catalog Update Service.

    If you have problems during the upgrade, refer to Upgrade issues.


    Upgrading using the stand-alone installer

    To upgrade your existing 1E Catalog to the latest version using the stand-alone installer:

    1. Download the installer from the Support portal: https://1eportal.force.com/s/1ecatalogtopicdetail

    2. Start a command prompt with elevated rights, navigate to the location where you downloaded the 1ECatalog.msi and run it with:

      Code Block
      > msiexec /i 1ECatalog.msi /l*v catinstall.log REBOOT=REALLYSUPPRESS

      The subsequent upgrade steps are the same as for the install.
