How to apply Patch on Axpert?

NOTE

• Stop the IIS before you begin the patch application.
• If the application is not recently updated with the latest patches then, the patch application should begin from release 1.
  For example, System A has Axpert 11.2 version. If you need to update this application with respect to the latest release, then you need to manually apply the patches from AW_11.2_release01 to AW_11.2_release xx.

Extract the patch release file. In the extracted files go to AW_11. X.0.0_releaseX folder. Copy all the contents in AW_11. X.0.0_releaseX folder to Axpert Web folder.

Copy the required ASB’s from the SharePoint link as mentioned in the release notes (email sent across the org)

Replace these files in Axpertwebscripts folder

On successful completion go to Axpert Developer folder and copy the path as shown

Go to Axpert Webscripts and open Axpmanger, and connect to the application using axdef login.

A Pop up appears, Paste the copied path and click on Next
