Summary
The following is the recommended path for upgrading your Moxie installation.
Solution
- Back up Moxie, either by:
- creating a snapshot of the VM, if you are running Moxie on a VM or
- backing up Moxie as described here
- Download all required versions of Moxie onto the computer on which your Moxie Data Server is installed.
Note: We recommend upgrading incrementally through versions, rather than jumping directly to the latest version. - Run the Moxie installer to upgrade your Moxie Data Server. Upgrade all components indicated in the installation wizard, including linking products and core Data Server components and services. After each upgrade, check on your most important content items to ensure they have upgraded correctly.
- Upgrade your Moxie Players. This can be done remotely through the
System Manager module (see the User Guide for System Manager for details on this process). Players do not need to be upgraded incrementally - Upgrade your Studios. Studios do not need to be upgraded incrementally.
Note: For Moxie versions 7.03 (and higher), this is an automatic process that occurs the first time the Studio logs into the Data Server.
