Applying the update package

In order for SoftExpert Suite to be updated on a GNU/Linux environment, an update script must be run. See the procedure below:

danger
  • If a problem occurs during the update from version 2.1.X to 2.2.X, removing the system will not be possible. The update will have to be finished, or the backup of the files will have to be restored, before the removal.
  • As of SoftExpert Suite version 2.0.8, Java 7 is no longer supported. Thus, when the following procedure is executed, Java will be updated to version 8.

Update script execution​

  1. Define the execution permission for the update script:
# chmod -R +x /usr/local/se/src/updater
  1. Execute the update script:
# /usr/local/se/src/updater/updater.sh [-p <SoftExpert Suite directory> | -path <SoftExpert Suite directory>]
danger

If SoftExpert Suite is not installed in the default directory, which is /usr/local/se, use the -p or -path parameter followed by the directory where SoftExpert Suite is installed. Note that the -p or -path parameter is not mandatory, i.e., if no parameter is entered after the script, the update will be performed in the default directory.

Examples:

/usr/local/se/src/updater/updater.sh -p /data/sesuite
/usr/local/se/src/updater/updater.sh --path /data/sesuite
