Installing the Discovery Framework 1.4 and restoring backups
To
install the Discovery Framework 1.4 and restore files backed up from version
1.1, 1.2, or 1.3:
Install Discovery Framework 1.4, following the steps in the
Discovery Framework Installation Guide. Do not start the
server.
Restore the entire
endeca-portal/data directory from your safe
backup location. Overwrite the
endeca-portal/data files that were installed
with the Discovery Framework 1.4.
If you have changed the location of anything normally kept in
endeca-portal/data, such as your Endeca data
source definitions, JCR repository, or Lucene search indexes, restore and
re-verify your custom locations as well.
Restore your database, as follows:
If you are using
HSQL, skip this step, since your database was restored as part of step 2.
If you are using
MYSQL, DB2, or some other RDBMS, your database should still be intact. If it is
not, follow the restore procedures from your vendor.
Configure the Discovery Framework to connect to your database. If
you are not using HSQL, you should have created a backup of your database
connection strings in the previous procedure.
Restore any Discovery Framework 1.1, 1.2, or 1.3 customizations
you have made.
Note: These customizations may not be supported in Discovery
Framework 1.4.
