Overview

You must be administrator of the web server. You must know:

• The physical path on the web server where WorkflowGen web application is installed.

• The physical path on the web server where WorkflowGen Windows Services are installed.

• The URL of the web server where WorkflowGen is installed.

• MS SQL Server database:

  • The name of the MS SQL server.

  • The credentials of the SA account.

  • The file path of the SQL server database files on the SQL server machine.

You'll need to perform the following actions:

• Update the web application files.

• Update the Windows Services files.

• Update the web configuration file.

• Update the Directory Synchronization and Engine Service files, and move the XMLTODATABASE transaction file.

• Update the database structure and contents.

Request new license files and serial numbers

If you're upgrading from WorkflowGen version 5, you must request a new license (trial, unlimited, or per user) and a new serial number for each of your WorkflowGen servers.

• The new license file must be copied to the \wfgen\bin folder.

• Define the new serial number in the \wfgen\web.config file (e.g. <add key="ApplicationSerialNumber" value="WFG-ENT-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXX-XXXX" />).

Be sure to back up your previous license file and serial number.
