Things to Note before Upgrade to 6.6

KitiKam1 — Tue, 17 Sep 2019 06:55:00 GMT

Hi all,

Starting the thread to discuss about the things to take note of before upgrading to 6.6.

Few points to share:

Take a backup of the Blue Prism Database(s) before you upgrade.
Objects and processes exported from version 6.6 cannot be used in previous versions of Blue Prism. This is because the format in which objects and processes are stored has been optimized to reduce their size in the database. All new objects and processes created in version 6.6 will utilize the new format and pre-existing objects and processes will be updated to the new format when they are opened in version 6.6.

The full release note can be found at https://portal.blueprism.com/system/files/documents/Blue%20Prism%20Release%20Notes%206.6.0.pdf

Any more points to add? Or any 6.6 upgrade experience that you can share?

If you have upgraded Blue Prism to version 6.6 on an Application Server and you have multiple services configured, then you may find that the non-Default server connection services are not starting.

Refer to the following for the suggested workaround:
