This section describes upgrading from NBIA 7.0 GA to 7.1 GA. You can perform an upgrade to NBIA 7.1 GA using the command-line installation. A GUI upgrade is not an option for this release.
|
If you are performing a new installation, go directly to Installing the NBIA Application.
The directions in this section presume that you have a valid and functioning NBIA 7.0. Please see the section above if you want to upgrade previous versions of NBIA. NBIA 7.1 GA. is running on an upgraded infrastructure, so please upgrade the infrastructure first. That includes the operating system for Linux system, Java SDK, Apache Ant, and the database as described at the beginning of in this document. The upgrade to a given version of NBIA may add new constraints to the data model. This is typically done in order to stop erroneous submissions from happening. If such submissions have already occurred, there may already be duplicate or corrupt data in the database. The upgrade will fail in such a case, and the corrupt data needs to be cleaned out before the upgrade can be successful. |
If you are using an existing Tomcat installation make sure there are no files or directories in the |
When you installed the previous version of NBIA, you configured install.properties
. To complete the upgrade to the desired NBIA version, you may need to use values in the previous install.properties file
to configure values in install.properties
for the NBIA command-line installer.
To make the upgraded NBIA automatically connect with an existing database after the installation, the property |
To perform an upgrade to NBIA 7.1 GA using the command line, follow these steps.
<installer_directory>
. <installer_directory
> = C:\NBIA_7_1_installer
.Edit the default properties in the <installer_directory>/install.properties
file. To do so, open both properties files, the one you configured originally, and the one at NBIA 7.1 GA <installer_directory>
.
Where there are duplicate attributes, the values must be the same in both files. In the NBIA 7.1 GA install.properties file, make sure to set the exclude database to be "true": |
Copy each entry you modified in the NBIA 7.1 GA install.properties file and paste it in the corresponding location in the install.properties file for NBIA 7.1 GA, replacing the default text, as appropriate. There are new properties for 7.1 GA that did not exist in 7.0. Consult NBIA 7.1 GA Properties of this guide for more background on the meaning of the properties. Be sure to use the correct database properties.
Record these property values.
If you chose not to use the default ports on the Tomcat application server, make sure the ports in the install.properties file match what you chose to use in Tomcat. Be sure to verify that other applications are not using the ports in this file. |
From the command line, navigate to < installer_directory >/ (Example:cd C:\NBIA_7_1_installer), and type ant. This initiates the upgrade process, which should take 7 to 15 minutes depending on your system's speed, power, and memory.
The installer configures pre-installed Tomcat application server, installs the NBIA 7.1 GA portal, CTP server, and NBIA REST service for the NBIA application.
Update the database schema.
The database upgrade needs to be performed after the NBIA installation completes. Once an initial installation of NBIA is complete each database upgrade must be made from the same directory due to the way Liquibase determines the uniqueness of each change element. This directory can be determined by inspecting databasechangelog in the database. In the following example, all database upgrades should occur from the C:\a\install\working\db\db-upgrade\db-upgrade.xml directory.

This procedure should only be done when upgrading from Version 6.5 GA. Do no perform it if upgrading from 7.X or later |
For this release the Solr Index needs to be upgraded to enable the Fielded Search feature. During this process, the text search feature will not be available.
