Problem-free updating of requisis_Mix including all individual settings.
The following procedure has been found to ensure a problem-free update of requisis_MiX:
- Close all open MiX windows and Doors modules.
- Navigate to the installation directory (by default: C:\REQUISIS\DXL\addins\REQUISIS) and rename the “requisis_MiX” folder to “requisis_MiX_old” (or similar).
- Install the new version of requisis_MiX by double-clicking the installation file. If you want to migrate to DNG version 7.0.3, use at least version 1.8.10 of requisis_MiX.
It is best to use an editor such as Notepad++ or Visual Studio Code for the following steps.
- Paste the server targets from the old 'configuration.json' file in the 'requisis_MiX_old/php/conf' folder into the new version of the 'configuration.json' file in the 'requisis_MiX/php/conf' folder. Pay attention to the brackets in the file. Further information can be found in chapter 3.5 of the admin manual.
- If you use certificates (*.pem), copy the contents of the subfolder requisis_MiX_old/php/conf/certs to the same subfolder in the new installation.
- Compare the settings in the old 'settings.inc' file in the 'requisis_MiX_old/config' folder to check whether you have made any adjustments. Transfer these settings to the new 'settings.inc' file in the 'requisis_MiX/config' folder.
If the parameter MIX_EXTERNAL_LOGIN is not available, add it. To do this, you can copy the following line:
const bool MIX_EXTERNAL_LOGIN = false;
If you are updating from a version older than version 1.8.08, check the path of the parameter MIX_PATH_TO_PHP and change it toMIX_INSTALL_PATH "\\php\\bin\\launcher.exe"if necessary. - The new version of requisis_MiX should now work properly.
