{{DISPLAYTITLE:Installation & Upgrading}}
[[Category:AppBoard 2.6]]
=== Planning ===

# Obtain the latest GA version
# Verify the target system meets the [[appboard/2.6/system_requirements|System Requirements]]
# Ensure you have a [[support/obtaining_a_license|valid license file]]

=== Installation ===

* [[appboard/2.6/admin/windows_installation|Windows Installation Guide]]
* [[appboard/2.6/admin/unix_installation|Linux / UNIX Installation Guide]]

{{Note|AppBoard ships with a limited set of JDBC drivers due to licensing restrictions. The appropriate drivers may need to be installed to interface with your chosen configuration database or data sources. Refer to the [[appboard/2.6/admin/db_drivers|Loading Database Drivers]] page for more information.}}

=== Upgrading ===

When upgrading there are additional considerations:

# major version upgrades should be performed in a lab before deploying to production, for example moving from AppBoard v2.5 to v2.6. Once any differences have been dealt with, a new version archive can be produced and this used when upgrading production.
# ensure you have a full archive before starting (see [[appboard/2.6/admin/backup_and_recovery|Backup and Recovery]])
# perform a ''clean'' installation, ''then'' restore/apply the archive. i.e. never uncompress a new version of the product over the top of an existing install unless directed by support.
# it is necessary to log into the Builder at least once to ensure all widgets are upgraded.

=== Running AppBoard ===

Refer to the OS specific installation guides above for starting/stopping AppBoard. Also see the [[appboard/2.6/admin/accessing_appboard|Accessing AppBoard]] page to access AppBoard once it's running.
