This page details the upgrade process for Cinchy v5.4 on IIS.
Warning: If you are upgrading from Cinchy v5.1 or lower to Cinchy v5.4, you must first run a mandatory process (Upgrade 5.2) using the Cinchy Utility and deploy version 5.2. Once complete, you can continue on with your 5.4 upgrade.
If you are upgrading to 5.4+ on an SQL Server Database, you will need to make a change to your connectionString in your SSO and Cinchy appsettings. Adding TrustServerCertificate=True will allow you to bypass the certificate chain during validation.
Ex:
The following process can be run when upgrading any v5.x instance to v5.4 on IIS.
Take a backup of your database.
Extract the new build for the version you wish to upgrade to.
Merge the following configs with your current instance configs:
Cinchy/web.config
Cinchy/appsettings.json
CinchySSO/appsettings.json
CinchySSO/web.config
If you are upgrading to 5.4+ on an SQL Server Database, you will need to make a change to your connectionString in both your SSO and Cinchy appsettings. Adding TrustServerCertificate=True will allow you to bypass the certificate chain during validation.
Ex:
Execute the following command:
4. Replace the Cinchy and CinchySSO folders with the new build and your merged configs.
5. Execute the following command:
6. Open your Cinchy URL in your browser.
7. Ensure you can log in.
If you encounter an error during this process, restore your database backup and contact Cinchy Support.
