Edit

Upgrade from v9.3.4 to v9.3.5

The guide describes the upgrade from 9.3.4 to 9.3.5 version of WorkFusion IA Cloud.

Prerequisites

  • You have WorkFusion SPA 9.3.4 up and running.
  • No Business Processes are running.

Download and extract patch

Connect to the APP server via SSH and run the following commands as runtime user (wf_user):

  1. Change the directory, create the patches directory, and download the patch:

    $ export INSTALL_DIR=/opt/workfusion

$ cd $INSTALL_DIR
$ mkdir patches
$ cd patches/
$ curl -o 'patch_9.3.4-9.3.5.tar.gz' 'https://spa-releases.s3.amazonaws.com:443/9.3/9.3.5/patch_9.3.4-9.3.5.tar.gz?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIYJMMPKAN2MQSJWA&Expires=1613053219&Signature=TKZOLNWpq6PldMrjH4RNrg1cgn4%3D'

    If the Internet access is not available on the APP server, download the patch to the patches directory with any available method.

  2. Extract the patch:

    $ tar xzf patch_9.3.4-9.3.5.tar.gz

    After the extraction, you'll see the patch_9.3.4-9.3.5 directory:

    $ ls -la
drwxrwxr-x.  2 wfuser wfuser        58 Oct 21 17:06 patch_9.3.4-9.3.5
-rw-rw-r--.  1 wfuser wfuser 247901699 Oct 21 17:06 patch_9.3.4-9.3.5.tar.gz

$ ls -la patch_9.3.4-9.3.5/
-rwxrwxr-x. 1 wfuser wfuser 4255 Nov 20 14:01 patch_9.3.5.sh
drwxrwxr-x. 2 wfuser wfuser  168 Nov 20 09:06 sources

Apply patch 9.3.5

  1. On the APP server, go to the patch_9.3.4-9.3.5 directory and run the following command:

    $ ./patch_9.3.5.sh apply

  2. Upgrade RPA server. Log in over RDP to RPA server and follow the steps

    1. Back up the current installation. Copy the RPA installation folder, for example, 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 Windows Server installation. Use RPAInstaller v9.3.5.

    4. From the backup folder restore the following files to their corresponding paths:

      • File nginx.conf from the C:/RPA_old/nginx/conf directory
      • All files from the C:/RPA_old/wfagent/conf directory.
      • All files from the C:/RPA_old/wfagent/bin directory.
      • Files from from the C:/RPA_old/nginx/ssl directory.
      • File CA.crt from the C:/RPA_old/filebeat/ssl directory.

Verify update

To verify that the update is successful:

## Navigate to directory where installer was extracted
./install.sh check app

You should also run some business processes which uses RPA functionality to test that RPA works properly.
