What are trying to achieve? Please describe in detail.

Hi all, someone can tell us if it is possible to upgrade from webMethods integration server 10.5 to ver 10.7 on the same system? (upgrade on place) thanks all

Hi Maria,

yes, this is possible by doing a side-by-side migration (parallel installations of both versions).
See the Upgrading webMethods Products Guide for further informations.

You will have to take a DB-dump and import it to a new schema, which then can be transformed to new version.
Point the new installation to cloned and migrated new schema then.

Regards,
Holger

Linking to similar question for 10.11 upgrade in place

Migrate Integration Server to 10.11

We are using Integration Server 10.5 and want to migrate to 10.11 mainly because of the new JVM. Installer shows me that it can only be made with side by side approach. The versions are so near that it is strange that cannot be done with overinstall. Will webMethods make this possible in the future ? The documentations says that there is a direct papth of migration between 10.5 an 10.11. What does this mean ?

Same here - i need to upgrade from 10.5 to 10.7 and would much prefer in place upgrade…

Hi all,

overinstall in same location most likely will not work as this can lead to classpath issues due to having multiple versions of the bundled apis simultaneously loaded into classpath.
