Running the installer and updating the configuration properties

Before you run the installer, ensure that you have the appropriate database connection information for both the Marketing Platform database and the Marketing Operations database.

About this task

Complete the following steps to run the installer and update configuration properties:

Procedure

  1. Run the HCL® installer and specify your existing installation directory as the installation directory to use. For more information, see How the installers work.

    The installer detects that you have an earlier version installed and runs in upgrade mode.

  2. Follow the instructions in the installation wizard.
    Note: Note that the installer can upgrade the database automatically. If your company policy does not permit you to use this feature, select the Manual database setup option and then run the scripts manually after installing the software and before deploying the web application.
  3. When the installer finishes, log in to the upgraded Marketing Platform application. Select Settings > Configuration. Review the properties in the Marketing Operations categories and set or change any parameters that are new for the current version of Marketing Operations.
