Check Compatibility Guide and Upgrade Planning to ensure that your version of database, Tomcat tomcat and Java java are supported in the planned upgrade. If any of these items need updating, please contact your IT team several weeks in advance of the planned upgrade.

Java upgrades

If java needs upgrading, you must verify that any JDBC connectors you have installed to non-standard databases are still supported. The standard databases supported by PhixFlow are Oracle, MS SQL Server and MySQL/ MariaDB. The drivers needed to connect to these databases are shipped with PhixFlow, and connections to external databases though PhixFlow datasources are supported by these drivers. However, if you have connections to external databases other than these - for example, Netezza, Teradata, DB2 - then you will have installed JDBC drivers for these in the folder

Code Block
[tomcat home]/lib

You must check that your current version of each installed driver is compatible with the new version of java, and if not, obtain a new version of the JDBC driver from the supplier.
