Changing the PcmPortal version
By default, the upgrade installs one version of PcmPortal (OCI or ODBC) as the default PcmPortal executable, based on the database type and version you selected, and the other version as a non-default executable. If you upgrade or change your database, rename the executables to change which PcmPortal is used.
About this task
The installer installs the two versions of PcmPortal as follows:
| Database type | OCI PcmPortal filename | ODBC PcmPortal filename |
|---|---|---|
| Oracle 11g Release 2 | PcmPortal.exe | PcmPortal_ODBC.exe |
| Oracle 10g Release 2 | PcmPortal_11g2_OCI.exe | PcmPortal.exe |
| SQL Server | PcmPortal_11g2_OCI.exe | PcmPortal.exe |
Procedure
- Open a command prompt.
- Navigate to the bin\ subdirectory of your Contenta home directory.
- Rename PcmPortal.exe to the name of the version you do not want to use. For example, to stop using the ODBC version because you have upgraded from Oracle 10g R2 to Oracle 11g R2, rename
PcmPortal.exeto PcmPortal_ODBC.exe. - Rename the other executable to PcmPortal.exe. In the same example, rename PcmPortal_11g2_OCI.exe to PcmPortal.exe.
- Restart PcmPortal.
