WorkflowGen 9.1.0 Upgrade

Overview

The following procedures apply to the WorkflowGen 9.1.0 upgrade pack, available at https://github.com/advantys/workflowgen-releases/releases.

Package contents

The upgrade pack is distributed as a compressed file containing the following folders:

  • Inetpub: WorkflowGen web application files

  • Program Files: WorkflowGen Windows Services files

  • Databases: WorkflowGen database update and creation files

IIS server

Stop the IIS server (or at least your WorkflowGen web applications) if other websites are using the same IIS server.

WorkflowGen Windows Services

Stop the WorkflowGen Directory Sync and Engine services in the Windows Services Management Console.

Backup

Application and data files

Back up the following folders:

  • DRIVE:\Inetpub\wwwroot\wfgen

  • DRIVE:\Program Files\Advantys\WorkflowGen

If the file storage path isn't the standard DRIVE:\Inetpub\wwwroot\wfgen\App_Data path, then you have to back up the corresponding folder.

Database

Perform a standard database backup using your DBMS tools.

Copy the upgrade pack content

Copy and overwrite the upgrade content from Update\Inetpub\wwwroot\wfgen to your WorkflowGen web application folder. By default, the suggested physical path is DRIVE:\Inetpub\wwwroot\wfgen.

  • Domain users and the Windows accounts used to run the WorkflowGen IIS application pool and Engine service must have read and write permissions for the \wfgen\App_Data folder.

  • Do NOT copy and overwrite your existing DRIVE:\Inetpub\wwwroot\wfgen\web.config file if you want to keep your current WorkflowGen configuration settings and database connection information.

  • It’s possible that the following default CSS files have been updated in this release and could overwrite any changes you had made in your existing installation:

    • \wfgen\App_Themes\Default\portal\css\Default.css

    • \wfgen\App_Themes\Default\admin\css\Default.css

  • If you've made changes to any of the default files in the following folders (e.g. *.aspx, *.css, *.resx files), make a backup of the existing files prior to the upgrade and manually re-apply these changes to the corresponding version 9.x.x files:

    • \wfgen

    • \wfgen\App_Themes

    • \wfgen\App_Data\Templates\Emails

    • \wfgen\App_Data\Templates\Forms

    • \wfgen\App_Data\Templates\Processes

Do NOT copy and overwrite your existing DRIVE:\Program Files\Advantys\WorkflowGen\Services\bin\*.config files.

Update Node.js program files

Copy node.exe.config and trace.config (located in Update\Program Files\nodejs) to DRIVE:\Program Files\nodejs.

If there's already a node.exe.config file in the DRIVE:\Program Files\nodejs folder, do not overwrite it. Instead, add the following to the existing file's <configuration> node:

<runtime>
    <assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
        <dependentAssembly>
            <assemblyIdentity name="Newtonsoft.Json" publicKeyToken="30ad4fe6b2a6aeed" culture="neutral" />
            <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-13.0.0.0" newVersion="13.0.0.0" />
        </dependentAssembly>
    </assemblyBinding>
</runtime>
<system.diagnostics configSource="trace.config" />

Update configuration files

This section contains configuration parameter changes you need to apply, based on the version of WorkflowGen from which you're upgrading.

📌 Examples

Remove the xmlns attribute

As of WorkflowGen version 7, you must remove the xmlns attribute from these configuration files:

\wfgen\web.config 
\wfgen\ws\web.config 
\wfgen\WfApps\WebForms\web.config 
DRIVE:\Program Files\Advantys\WorkflowGen\Services\bin\WfgWorkflowEngineServer.exe.config
DRIVE:\Program Files\Advantys\WorkflowGen\Services\bin\WfgDirectoriesSyncService.exe.config

To do this, change <configuration xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0"> to <configuration>.

Update the root web configuration file

Configure the WorkflowGen root website to auto-redirect to the wfgen web app

As of WorkflowGen 7.22.0, you should configure your WorkflowGen root website (e.g. https://server) to auto-redirect to the https://server/wfgen web app. To do this, follow the procedure below:

  1. Make sure the URL Rewrite tool is installed on your WorkflowGen server.

  2. Create or update the web.config file in your website's root folder (e.g. DRIVE:\inetpub\wwwroot\web.config). ⚠️ Warning: This is not the same web.config file as the main WorkflowGen web.config file (located in DRIVE:\inetpub\wwwroot\wfgen\web.config).

  3. Define the rewrite rule node as shown below (configuration / system.webServer / <rewrite> / <rules> / <rule>):

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
    <system.webServer>
        <rewrite>
            <rules>
                <rule name="Rewrite to wfgen" stopProcessing="true">
                    <match url="(^$|^wfgen$|^wfgen/$)" />
                    <action type="Rewrite" url="/wfgen/show.aspx?QUERY=CONTEXT&amp;REQUEST_QUERY=WELCOME&amp;NO_REDIR=Y" />
                </rule>
            </rules>
        </rewrite>
    </system.webServer>
</configuration>

Update Form Designer webforms for versions 8 and later

As of WorkflowGen version 8, the WorkflowGen.My.Web.UI.WebControls.dll assembly has been merged into WorkflowGen.My.dll. This breaking change impacts webforms created in the Form Designer and the webforms' \bin folders, so you must perform one of the following procedures:

Method 1: Use the provided PowerShell script

Run the \update\configuration\update-webforms-wfg-my-assembly.ps1 script in PowerShell inside the \wfgen\wfapps\webforms\ folder. This will automatically update your ASPX webforms and delete deprecated files and folders.

This script requires PowerShell version 7.0 or later.

It will update all .aspx files located in the \webforms folder, including those not managed by the Form Designer. If you have custom webforms in this folder that use another version of WorkflowGen.My.dll, then you should skip the changes to these .aspx files. You can do this by moving these files to a temporary folder before running the script, and then copying them back to the original folder.

Usage example

.\update-webforms-wfg-my-assembly.ps1 -Path "c:\inetpub\wwwroot\wfgen\wfapps\webforms" -Verbose

Method 2: Manually

  1. Delete the following files and folders from the\wfgen\wfapps\webforms\bin\ folder:

    • WorkflowGen.My.Web.UI.WebControls.dll

    • WorkflowGen.My.Web.Handlers.dll

    • \de

    • \fr

    • \hu

    • \pl

  2. Upgrade each of your webforms created in the Form Designer, either by re-saving them or by manually replacing the <%@ Register Assembly="WorkflowGen.My.Web.UI.WebControls" ... %> tag with <%@ Register Assembly="WorkflowGen.My" ... %> inside each of your .aspx files.

Update the GraphQL and webhooks configuration files

In the \wfgen\graphql\web.config and \wfgen\hooks\web.config files, add the following to <system.webServer>:

<httpErrors existingResponse="PassThrough" errorMode="Detailed"></httpErrors>

Update the Directory Synchronization configuration file

A new configuration parameter is required when upgrading from version 5.1.5 and earlier. This parameter allows you to provide a unique service name to the WorkflowGen Directory Synchronization service should you have multiple instances of WorkflowGen installed on a single server.

Add the following parameter to DRIVE:\Program Files\Advantys\WorkflowGen\Services\bin\WfgDirectoriesSyncService.exe.config:

<add key="ServiceName" value="WorkflowGenDirSyncService" />

Update the WorkflowGen Engine Service configuration file

A new configuration parameter is required when upgrading from version 5.1.5 or earlier. This parameter allows you to provide a unique service name to the WorkflowGen Engine service should you have multiple instances of WorkflowGen installed on a single server.

Add the following parameter to DRIVE:\Program Files\Advantys\WorkflowGen\Services\bin\WfgWorkflowEngineService.exe.config:

<add key="ServiceName" value="WorkflowGenEngineService" />

Move the XMLTODATABASE transactions file

If you're upgrading from version 5.7.4 or earlier, copy the Transactions.xml file from \wfgen\WfApps\WebServices\XmlToDatabase\App_Data to \wfgen\App_Data\Files\XmlToDatabase.

Configure IIS

Domain users and the Windows accounts used to run the WorkflowGen IIS application pool and Engine service must have read and write permissions for the \wfgen\app_data folder.

Update or create the application pool in .NET 4

The WorkflowGen website and web applications must now use an application pool in .NET 4. If this hasn't already been configured, do the following:

  1. Install .NET Framework 4 on the server, if it's not already installed.

  2. Update the existing application pool or create a new application pool using .NET Framework 4 for:

    • the WorkflowGen website

    • \wfgen

    • \wfgen\wfapps\webforms (create this IIS web application if it isn’t already created)

    • \wfgen\ws

  3. If your application pool is set to use Classic Managed Pipeline Mode, make sure ASP.NET v4.0.30319 is set to Allowed in the IIS manager ISAPI and CGI Restrictions list.

WorkflowGen Node.js-based web applications

To use the GraphQL, incoming webhooks, OpenID Connect Auth, and SCIM APIs, you must first install the following requirements:

  • Delete each Node.js-based application's node_modules folder (located under \wfgen\auth, \wfgen\graphql, \wfgen\hooks, and \wfgen\scim) before copying the files from the upgrade pack.

  • After enabling GraphQL, incoming webhooks, OpenID Connect Auth, or SCIM, the WorkflowGen DLLs will be in use by Node.js, so they'll be locked from being updated. In order to update the DLLs, it's necessary to stop IIS.

To enable WorkflowGen GraphQL:

  1. In IIS, convert /wfgen/graphql to an application with a .NET 4 application pool (integrated pipeline).

  2. Configure the GraphQL application authentication mode:

    • For Basic authentication: Enable Basic authentication.

    • For WorkflowGen Applicative authentication:

      • Make sure the /wfgen web application already has WorkflowGen Applicative authentication enabled.

      • Enable Anonymous authentication.

  3. Update the WorkflowGen web.config file with the following parameters used by GraphQL:

    <add key="GraphqlMaxPageSize" value="100" />
<add key="GraphqlMaxBatchSize" value="1000" />
<add key="GraphqlDefaultPageNumber" value="1" />
<add key="GraphqlDefaultPageSize" value="30" />
<add key="GraphqlGraphiqlEnabled" value="N" />
<add key="GraphqlLoadersCacheEnabled" value="Y" />
<add key="GraphqlDebugEnabled" value="N" />
<add key="GraphqlQueryTimeout" value="90000" />
<add key="GraphqlOperationTimeout" value="30000" />
<add key="GraphqlMaxOperationCount" value="10000" />
<add key="GraphqlMaxInputFileSize" value="10240" />
<add key="GraphqlMaxInputFileContentSize" value="0" />
<add key="GraphqlInputFileDownloadTimeout" value="100000" />
<add key="GraphqlInputFileAllowedFolders" value="" />
<add key="GraphqlInputFileAllowedHttpUrls" value="" />

To enable WorkflowGen incoming webhooks:

  1. Update the WorkflowGen web.config file with the following parameters used by incoming webhooks:

    <add key="HooksDebugEnabled" value="N" />
<add key="HooksOperationTimeout" value="30000" />
<add key="HooksMaxInputFileSize" value="10240" />
<add key="HooksMaxInputFileContentSize" value="0" />
<add key="HooksInputFileDownloadTimeout" value="100000" />
<add key="HooksInputFileAllowedFolders" value="" />
<add key="HooksInputFileAllowedHttpUrls" value="" />

  2. In IIS, convert /wfgen/hooks to an application with a .NET 4 application pool (integrated pipeline), and configure the hook application in Anonymous authentication mode.

If your WorkflowGen is configured to use WorkflowGen Applicative authentication or a custom authentication, you must remove the authentication module from the /hooks/web.config file as follows:

For WorkflowGen Applicative authentication:

<location path="hooks" inheritInChildApplications="false">
    <system.webServer>
        <modules>
            <remove name="ApplicationSecurityAuthenticationModule" />
        </modules>
    </system.webServer>
</location>

For Custom authentication:

<location path="hooks" inheritInChildApplications="false">
    <system.webServer>
        <modules>
            <remove name="MyCustomAuthModule" />
        </modules>
    </system.webServer>
</location>

To enable WorkflowGen SCIM:

In IIS, convert /wfgen/scim to an application with a .NET 4 application pool (integrated pipeline), and configure the application in Anonymous authentication mode.

If your WorkflowGen is configured to use WorkflowGen Applicative authentication or a custom authentication, you must remove the authentication module from the /scim/web.config file as follows:

For WorkflowGen Applicative authentication:

<location path="scim" inheritInChildApplications="false">
    <system.webServer>
        <modules>
            <remove name="ApplicationSecurityAuthenticationModule" />
        </modules>
    </system.webServer>
</location>

For Custom authentication:

<location path="scim" inheritInChildApplications="false">
    <system.webServer>
        <modules>
            <remove name="MyCustomAuthModule" />
        </modules>
    </system.webServer>
</location>

To enable WorkflowGen OpenID Connect Auth:

In IIS, convert /wfgen/auth to an application with a .NET 4 application pool (integrated pipeline), and configure the application in Anonymous authentication mode.

If your WorkflowGen is configured to use WorkflowGen Applicative authentication or a custom authentication, you must remove the authentication module from the \auth\web.config file as follows:

For WorkflowGen Applicative authentication:

<location path="auth" inheritInChildApplications="false">
    <system.webServer>
        <modules>
            <remove name="ApplicationSecurityAuthenticationModule" />
        </modules>
    </system.webServer>
</location>

For Custom authentication:

<location path="auth" inheritInChildApplications="false">
    <system.webServer>
        <modules>
            <remove name="MyCustomAuthModule" />
        </modules>
    </system.webServer>
</location>

Restart the WorkflowGen server

Reboot your WorkflowGen web server.

New location of workflow application temporary and log files

The following workflow applications store their files in these new locations:

  • EFORMASPX: \wfgen\App_Data\Files\EFormAspx
