Warning

Project files structure

This release changed the file organization for Linux installations in order to enable automated updates for future upgrades of License Statistics.

When upgrading to v6.17, it's important to follow the License Statistics upgrade procedure, especially for updating an embedded database. Most importantly:

  • Be sure to create a backup of the License Statistics database, as the embedded "mysql/data" directory location has been changed.
  • Do not use a "quick update" procedure when upgrading to this release.
  • Follow the instructions in Upgrading License Statistics page.

On Windows, the ability to upgrade the application was introduced in License Statistics v6.6.
