For installations older then v4.11.1, it's required to update to v4.11.1 before upgrading to newer versions because the database migration system was changed in v4.11.1.
- Back up the following files:
- License Statistics configuration file (xflicstat.cfg), located in the License Statistics installation directory by default
- License Statistics license file (license.lic), located in the License Statistics installation directory by default
- 3rd party utilities (for example, query tools), which should be moved to a location outside of the License Statistics installation directory to avoid their removal by the installer
- Back up the database, depending on which database hosting you are using:
- Stop License Statistics.
- Remove the current installation.
Install License Statistics v4.11.1.
Do not run License Statistics yet.
- Restore the database, depending on which database hosting you are using:
- Restore the files you backed up in step 1, including:
- License Statistics configuration file (xflicstat.cfg)
- License Statistics license file (license.lic)
Make sure the database was migrated properly and the application runs before you continue.
- Follow the instructions to update from v4.11.1 to the newest version.
