For existing Centro 7.11.x or 7.12.x with ArangoDB 3.6.8 you may experience problems with the standard upgrade with the existing ArangoDB.

Please proceed as follows:

  • Create a System VM snapshot of the currently existing and functional Centro CAD Publisher 7.xx version/ArangoDB 3.6.x.
    For all points it is assumed that Centro CAD Publisher 7.xx and ArangoDB 3.6.x are running on the same machine.

  • Now follow points 1 to 8 at https://help.actify.com/ev/arangodb-upgrade in this order and save the "dump" as described.

  • Then please follow the further uninstallation/installation in the order below

  1. Uninstall 3.6.8 Enterprise (Delete everything) -> Make checkbox active / Activate the checkbox

When the uninstallation is finished, please continue with point 2.

2. Install 3.6.8 Enterprise with Rocksdb
Disable "Keep a backup of databases" / Deactivate "Keep a backup of databases".

Now install ArangoDB 3.6.8 without any database.

3. Log into ArangoDB 3.6.8 as root user into the "_system" DB via http://127.0.0.1:8529.

Create a new empty "ActifyDB" via Add Database menu as "root" user. Please note that this is case sensitive.

5. Restore database to 3.6.8 in RocksDB mode / restore database to 3.6.8 to RocksDB-Mode.

Import:

  • If not already there, copy the dump folder into C:\Progarm Files\ArangoDB3 3.6.x\usr\bin for convenience.

  • In  a powershell window or command prompt window, navigate to the C:\Progarm Files\ArangoDB3 3.6.x\usr\bin.

  • Type the following to restore the database data.
         .\arangorestore.exe --include-system-collections true --all-databases  --input-directory "dump"

6. You should be able to check via the ArangoDB GUI the collections in the ActifyDB database are now populated as well as your system users.

  • Proceed to Upgrade to 3.7.18
