Title: Upgrading from 10.2 to 10.2.2
Post by: hmock on 22 Apr 2015 09:49:46 AM
I am upgrading from version 10.2 to 10.2.2 in my dev environment with windows 2008R2.  In the past I have always done an uninstall and removed all files and folders from the install location and then installed the newest version done configuration etc.   This time I just did the uninstall (keeping the leftover files and folders in the install location) and then installing the 10.2.2 version and started up.  It appears that everything is working just fine.  I did have to go into the index.htm and default.htm and change from cgi to isapi but other than that it was smooth.  Is there anything I am missing or potential downfalls of doing the upgrade this way?

thanks,

Hi,

This is what I usually do - it means you can keep the same configuration and the same skins/images etc.

Cheers!

MF.
