Upgrading an Existing Application Catalog

AdminStudio 2022 | 23.0 | Application Manager

Edition:Application Manager is included with AdminStudio Professional and Enterprise Editions.

When you attempt to open an AdminStudio 5.x to 2013 R2 Application Catalog in AdminStudio 2022, you are prompted to upgrade it to use the AdminStudio 2022 schema.

Log files for the upgrade are created in the following directory:

AdminStudio Shared Directory\ConflictSolver\Logs

Note:Note the following regarding upgrading an existing Application Catalog:

The upgrade of AdminStudio 3.0, 3.01, and 3.5 databases is not supported by AdminStudio 7.0 or later.
Starting with AdminStudio 8.0, Microsoft Access databases are not supported.
Starting with AdminStudio 9.01, Oracle databases are not supported.
When an SQL Server Application Catalog database is upgraded, the old tables are not dropped from the Application Catalog.

Important:Specific permissions are required to upgrade an Application Catalog. See Required Permissions on Application Catalog Databases.

Upgrading Pre-AdminStudio 5.0 Application Catalogs

Pre-AdminStudio 5.0 Application Catalogs cannot be upgraded automatically by AdminStudio 7.0 or later. However, you can upgrade them using the Legacy Upgrade Wizard, a standalone utility that was included with AdminStudio 7.0 and 7.5. The Legacy Upgrade Wizard utility is installed in the following directory:

C:\Program Files\InstallShield\AdminStudio\7.x\Common\LegacyUpgradeWizard.exe

If you do not have a copy of AdminStudio 7.0 or 7.5 available to you, contact Technical Support.
