This section lists the prerequisites and steps for applying and verifying this patch.
Though every release of Adeptia comes with seamless upgrades and bug-free patches, for customer's complex use cases, we recommend applying the patch in a non-production environment first followed by testing. After the use cases run successfully without any errors or warnings, you can apply the patch in the production environment.
Prerequisites
- You have Read and Write permissions on all sub-folders and files of .../AdeptiaConnect-<Version>.
- Services such as Kernel, WebRunner, and AIMap are stopped.
- Take backup of export.xml, connect_export.xml, and connect_import.xml files from …<ConnectServerInstallFolder>\AdeptiaServer\ServerKernel\MigrationUtility location. These backup files will help you replicate the manual changes in case you have done earlier in these files before applying this patch.
- Take backup of applicationconfig.xml file from …<ConnectServerInstallFolder>\AdeptiaServer\ServerKernel\etc location. This backup file will help you replicate the manual changes in case you have done earlier in the applicationconfig.xml file before applying this patch.
- Take the backup of the objects. Refer to this page to know why and how you need to back up and restore the objects.
- No process flow or transaction should be in running, waiting or queued state.
- Ensure that you have followed the Prerequisites' instructions given on the Upgrade page.
Applying the patch

PatchApplicationLog_<Date>.log file contains the logs generated during patch application and can be used to troubleshoot any issue related to the patch application.
Patch application may take some time, in case there are a large number of records in the backend and log database.
The patch will automatically rollback, in case of any error during the deployment.
After applying this patch, refer to post patch deployment section for manual changes.
