Update from 6.11 to 6.12

[Brennyineire]

Hi there, just wondering how to update.

I have the new version down loaded. 

So I run the installer, do I need to uninstall 6.11 first?

After 6.12 is installed do I need to run the configs again, and do I need to update the scripts on my solutions?

 

Regards

You do not need to uninstall.

Run the 6.12 installer on the server, and that is all that is required.

6.12 will still work with the older scripts in your existing offline files, but to get all of the script improvements between 6.11 and 6.12 (noted with the tag [Worker script] in the changelog), copy and paste the MirrorSync 6 worker script from the included MirrorSync Support.fmp12 file into your hosted FileMaker database. Then, whenever offline users get a new copy of the database from the server, they'll get the latest script improvements.

Cheers worked fine (after I temporarily disabled web publishing on FMS)

Question, shouldn't the worker script set the variable of the version to 6.12?

from line 12 of the current distro

Set Variable [ $$mirrorSyncVersion ; Value: "6.1164" ]

The script didn’t change between 6.1164 and 6.12, so we just left it.
