RPA Server Upgrade

Upgrade under Windows

  1. Back up the current installation. For example, copy RPA folder (C:\RPA) to C:\RPA_old.

  2. Uninstall RPA using the respective item from Programs and Features in Control Panel.

  3. Install RPA as described in RPA Server Installation.

  4. If hub.json and nodeX.json in C:\RPA\rpa-grid\ have been modified in the previous installation for any particular purposes, replace the newly created files with those from the backup, for example, C:\RPA_old\rpa-grid\.

caution

Do not replace new files while upgrading to version 8.5 from the previous versions, as the files are incompatible. In this case it is recommended to set the custom capabilities in new files.

Upgrade under Linux

  1. Run the following file to stop RPA Manager:

    $INSTALL_DIR/apps/rpa-manager/stop.sh

  2. Replace the RPA Manager file (rpa-manager-server-$version.war) in the RPA Manager folder ($INSTALL_DIR/apps/rpa-manager/) with the new one.

  3. Run the following file to start RPA Manager:

    $INSTALL_DIR/apps/rpa-manager/start.sh
