Installation

Hi, We installed a fresh Webcon server and attached the backup of the config database to a new SQL Server and connected it to the new Webcon server. The config database now has references to the old host and the new host. Is it possible to remove the old host from the config db? Thanks

1. We currently have installed version 2023.1.1.56, and I cannot find it in the platform center anymore. 2. Does anyone know if importing processes from this to 2023.1.1.89 works? Or do I need to do an upgrade first? 3. Is there anything we need to consider when updating this missing version?

Hello, is there any possibility to sync users from local AD, and get pictures from AAD? I've been looking at the docs, and changelogs but found config only for AAD alone. If not sync - maybe there is a way to bulk import it somehow?

How can we see that Webcon is functioning properly on the new servers? How can we migrate applications to new servers and test them? What about the installatio (...)

Hi, I have a BPS installation on Active Directory called ABC.local. The organization is sunsetting this domain and moving to another AD forest called XYZ.local. In both domains, John Kowalsky has a separate account: in the ABC.local domain, it's abc\jkowalsky and in XYZ.local, the login is via UPN john.kowalsky@org.pl. Fortunately, we can pair accounts in both domains by email address. How can I migrate BPS and users from the ABC.local domain to XYZ.local? Are there any best practices? What abou (...)

In our attempt to move to the cloud I need to update our webcon database to the latest version that supports GCC. I do not want to install this on prod and we don't have a proper dev env setup for this (Yet). To get the db upgraded, I am trying to migrate our existing prod WebCon instance, data and all to a new dev host (basically making a 1:1 prod:dev environment). Is there a "supported" method for doing this? I've tried a clean install, restoring the config and content databases and (...)

Hi all! We have a new customer who has a central IT service department. As for the database, we can just order a certain amount of databases, which we then have access to. The question is, is it even possible to install Webcon into existing databases (e.g. Config, Content, Att,...) or do we need a fresh SQL instance from the customer and an admin account with db_creator or sysadmin rights (as described in the installation manual)? Sorry for the somehow unclear question... Thanks in a (...)
