NewGenlin old ver to New Ver 2.5 to 3.0.3

[srinaththota]

Hai,

Good morning.

I would like to upgrade NewGenlib 2.5 version to 3.0.3version. I have few questions in this regard. Please try to clarify my doubts.

Backup & Restore:

Generally I am taking NewGenlib database backup in “Compress with Blobs”. Is that right way of taking backup? Or should I always prefer "Plain format with insert commands"?

New version (3.0.3) required postgresql 8.3. If I migrate 8.0 to 8.3 how should I restore existing backup. I have seen below step in “Install with database backup”.

Place you database backup file in InstallNGL3.0/DBBackup directory. This database backup must be in "Plain format with insert commands".  Is that enough? Or anything else I need to do.

Mail Configuration:

Please let me know which file I need to edit to configure the mail server. I shall be thankful to you if you could provide me the steps to configure the same.

I could not find the link to download NGL3. Download NGL3 from this link is downloading only InstallNGL303.zip not the NGL3. Please look into that.

Thanking you in Advance.

Best Regards
Srinath

Respected Sir,
1. Your can take postgresql backup as compressed with blobs. It is a right way. You can also take a backup in plain format with insert statements also.

2. But if you are migrating, take a backup in plain with insert commands. Please note that here we are assuming that you are un-installing old postgresql version and reinstalling a new version

3. "Place you database backup file in InstallNGL3.0/DBBackup directory. This database backup must be in "Plain format with insert commands".  Is that enough? Or anything else I need to do. "
That is it.

4. After you upgrade to NGL 3.0.3 U5 you will automatically get a file named mail.properties in C:/NewGenLibFiles/SystemFiles directory
You can open this file and edit it

5. We rechecked the link, it works fine. If it does not work, there is an option to choose a different mirror. Use a different mirror for download

If you have any problems or confusion in migration please send your contact details to support<attherate>verussolutions.biz email account. We will be happy to help you

Dear Sir,

Thank you so much for your swift reply. Regarding NGL3 link it is working but I am able to downloading only InstallNGL3.0.zip. it is about 107mb. But how do I download NGL3. There are two folder it is showing in Installation documentation. One is "InstallNGL 3.0.X" and another one is "NGL3". Please check it once.

Thanks&Regards

Respected Sir,
The download link only downloads InstallNGL3.0.zip file
After you extract this zip file and click on install then NGL3 directory is automatically created.

Dear Sir,

I followed your instructions.
I downloaded InstallNGL 303 and extracted into C drive. Before the installation I copied Newgenlib backup file in C:/InstallNGL3.0/DBBackup directory. Backup is "Plain format with insert commands". But Backup is not restored in the database. It is showing default home page. Please let me what could be the problem.

Thanks&Regards

Respected Sir,
Presuming that you have edited config.ini before double clicking on Install batch file.
In config.ini in line 26, you will find this
restore.database=blank

It must be
restore.database=original

Dear sir,

I didn't remember it exactly. But I edited that file. I edited as "restore.database=original" and saved it. But your Documentation mentioned that 4th step is edit and save config.ini and 5th step Install Batch file.

Then What should I do. Do I need to Reinstall everything?

Respected Sir,
Step 1: Delete the newly created NGL3 directory
Step 2: Run the installation again
