Has anyone upgraded to NPM 12 With FoE

donpepe over 7 years ago

We ran into some issues during the upgrade. Support told us that FoE is not certified yet. Was wondering if anyone managed to finish the install.

Not yet... We need to upgrade NCM first, and that is scheduled for a couple of weeks out.
what issues did you hit?
Thanks

Just wondering what method you were using? Were you upgrading one server entirely, cloning, then pushing the clone to the other server? If you want to upgrade without the cloning method, you need to upgrade one product per version on secondary then primary, in tandem keeping both servers equal in installed product versions. If you upgrade one server fully, then try and step through upgrading the second, it will throw DB errors during Configuration Wizard. Just checking in case I can possibly help out.
