4.2 LiveCycle ES4 pre-configuration tasks for upgrade

  1. If you did not start Configuration Manager automatically from the installation program, navigate to the [LiveCycle root]/configurationManager/bin directory and run the ConfigurationManager.bat/sh script.

  2. If prompted, select a language and click OK.

  3. If you are prompted to use existing configuration data, click OK.

  4. On the Welcome screen, click Next.

  5. On the Upgrade Task Selection screen, select the appropriate option to upgrade to LiveCycle ES4 from your existing LiveCycle ES2, LiveCycle ES2.5, Adobe Digital Enterprise Platform (ADEP), or LiveCycle ES3 installation. Click Next to continue.

  6. On the Modules screen, select the LiveCycle ES4 modules you plan to configure and deploy and then click Next.

    Note: You must install and deploy as many or more modules than those on your existing LiveCycle system.
    Note: Some modules have technical dependencies on other modules for proper configuration and functioning. Configuration Manager displays a dialog and does not allow to proceed further if mutually dependent modules are not selected. For example, you must select Adobe LiveCycle Forms, Adobe LiveCycle Output, and Content Repository modules if you are configuring Correspondence Management Solution.
  7. On the Task Selection screen, select all the tasks you want to perform and click Next.

    Note: You must select the Initialize LiveCycle Database option when you are upgrading.

    For an upgrade install, make sure that you perform all the tasks sequentially without skipping any, to avoid upgrade issues.
