You can perform a complete upgrade of your current Web-to-Host
installation. It is not recommend to directly upgrade a BlueZone
Web-to-Host site that is in production. Instead, copy the production
files to a new folder for testing. After upgrading and testing are
complete, change the virtual directory on the web server to the new
folder.
Note: This procedure assumes that the existing Web-to-Host
sites that you want to upgrade are located on a Microsoft platform
and the Web-to-Host Wizard Version 5.1 or later is being installed
on the same server.
- Start the new Web-to-Host Wizard.
- Select the site that you want to upgrade and click Copy.
- Enter a name for the copied site and click Open.
- Select the copied site and click Upgrade.
- Click OK to confirm the upgrade.
- Click Next.
In the Launch Folders window, all of the launch pages
from the copied site display as launch folders.
Note: The Web-to-Host
Wizard Version 5.1 and later also copies two folders from your previous
installation: default and desktop.
These launch folders are no longer needed and can be deleted.
- Select a launch folder and click Next.
The Sessions window opens and all of the sessions for
the selected launch folder are displayed.
- On the Sessions window, note the presence of the Overrides button.
This button provides backward compatibility with previous versions
of the Web-to-Host Wizard.
There is no need to change any values in the Overrides
window. You can continue to use the overrides feature just as you
did in the previous versions of the Web-to-Host Wizard.
- Click Next two times to advance
to the Test Launch Folders window where you can select and test each
launch folder.
- If you are running the Web-to-Host Wizard on a Microsoft
platform with IIS enabled, you can use the IIS web server or you can
use the built-in web server to do your testing.
Note: If you attempt to enable the built-in web server and you
receive the following message:
Unable to start the Web
server on the selected port. That port is in use. Please select another
port or close the conflicting application.There
is a web server, probably your IIS web server, already running on
port 80. Select a different port, for example 8080, and try again.
- To test the launch folder, click Test BlueZone.
- To test additional launch folders, select a folder from
the Launch Folder menu and click Test
BlueZone. You can test all your launch folders from this
page without having to go back and select each launch folder from
the Launch Folders window.
Note: To upgrade multiple Web-to-Host sites, repeat the upgrade
process for each site. If any of your existing Web-to-Host sites
have duplicate names, you must rename them with unique names before
importing them into the new Web-to-Host Wizard.
