QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2024.1 and later releases use .Net 8 (instead of .Net 6). If you are updating from an earlier release than QPR ProcessAnalyzer 2024.1, .Net 8 needs to be installed and .Net 6 uninstalled. Both .Net versions work side-by-side, so .Net 6 doesn't need to be uninstalled immediately, but due to security reasons, make sure that .Net 6 is eventually uninstalled.

Follow these instructions to update QPR ProcessAnalyzer to the latest version:

  1. Pre-Update Steps:
    • Read the release notes between the original and new releases to identify any special considerations.
  2. Download and Prepare:
    • Download the QPR ProcessAnalyzer Server package from the downloads page.
    • Extract the package into a temporary folder (e.g., C:\temp\QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_<build number>).
  3. Backup and Stop Services:
    • In the Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager, stop the application pool used by QPR ProcessAnalyzer Server.
    • Backup QPR ProcessAnalyzer Server root folder (by default C:\inetpub\QPRPA).
  4. Replace Files:
    • Remove all files in the QPR ProcessAnalyzer Server root folder (by default C:\inetpub\QPRPA).
    • Copy all files from the Service folder of the extracted package into the QPR ProcessAnalyzer Server root folder (by default C:\inetpub\QPRPA).
    • Restore the backed-up appsettings.json file (from C:\temp\QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_<build number>) to the ProcessAnalyzer Server root folder (by default C:\inetpub\QPRPA).
  5. Restart Services:
    • Start the QPR ProcessAnalyzer Server IIS application pool.

  1. In the Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager, stop the application pool used by QPR ProcessAnalyzer Server.
  2. Restore the backed-up QPR ProcessAnalyzer Server root folder to the ProcessAnalyzer Server root folder (C:\temp\QPR_ProcessAnalyzer_<build number> folder content to C:\inetpub\QPRPA folder).
