Hi,

is there a way to do the update without unistalling previous version and then installing the new version?

Concretely, i'm asking this for versions 4.5.1 and 4.5.2.

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

Let me know what data you want to hold back and we can work that out.

Thanks!

Well, all the applications and configuration files for FMS and apache.

What i do usually with these updates is make a backup of what i need and then uninstall old, install new version, then copy the backuped files back.

While this is working ok, i'm interested if there is another way of doing this - like really having an update rather than a completely new installation.

Hmmm. I'm afraid there isn't any way to just simply update.

What best you can do is:

Install the new FMS (say 4.5.2) in a different location and replace the binaries of the old installation with the new ones.

Binaries to replace:

FMSMaster.exe

FMSCore.exe

FMSEdge.exe

FMSAdmin.exe

Thanks!
