Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Getting Started:
Installation and Configuration


Finishing the installation

If you saved information in a progress.ini file in a previous version of OpenEdge that you want to continue using, you can add that information to the new progress.ini file.

Note: You can perform this procedure whether you installed using the online, interactive method or the silent method.

To add information about your progress.ini file:

  1. Copy the information you want to save from your previous progress.ini file to the OpenEdge progress.ini file.
  2. If you are copying information from a Version 9 installation, rename any PROUIB section to PROAB. The PROUIB section of the Version 9 progress.ini file is referred to as PROAB in OpenEdge.
  3. Run ini2reg to update the information in the registry with the information you added from your previous progress.ini file.
  4. Restart your system.
  5. Note: If you want to continue using the property information (such as ubroker.properties, conmgr.properties, or proxygen.preferences) that OpenEdge automatically prior to the installation, copy the saved property files from %TEMP% to install-path\properties. For information about the automatic save of the property information before the installation process occurs, see the "OpenEdge automatic save of Properties files" section. For information on merging property files, see the "Mergeprop utility overview" section.

You will need to perform any other postinstallation tasks as discussed in the "Postinstallation considerations" section and the "Performing postinstallation tasks" section.
