Unable to do IIQ upgrade after executing upgrade DB script

May I where and how its comparing versions mismatch

Hi @ymail145,

you must manually update the version on DB.

Try with:

UPDATE SPT_DATABASE_VERSION SCHEMA_VERSION = '8.5-15' WHERE NAME = 'main';

and restart

3

its already updated but same error
name system_version schema_version
main 8.4-105 8.5-15

4

you must update System version too.

In this page you can find the values:

@ymail145 Open your upgrade DB script, and copy the queries related to spt_database_version and execute it in your DB.

Thank you for update,

I would like to know System version will be updated automatically when running “IIQ Upgrade” ?

or

do we have to update manually whenever upgrade the IIQ version or patches?

7

its only updating schema_version from upgrade DB script

8

I think you didnt execute correctly the db upgrade but usually there is this instruction in the upgrade file, you must do manually

9

then you need to run iiq upgrade command in the IIQ server terminal as well. have you executed it already?

10

@neel193 Yes I executed iiq upgrade in console but got failed due to timeout

11

@ymail145 Yeah you need to make it work. Could you please share the logs or error message?

12

@neel193 iiq upgrade still running

May I know where I can find upgrade logs?

13

@ymail145 IS it resolved?
