What are the proper steps to change a database on a server from FB 2.5.1 to 2.5.4 (both 32 bit on Windows 2008 server) My current plan is: 1. I downloaded 2.5.4 .zip files and unzipped to ...\Firebird\Firebird_2_5_4 2. using instsvc in ...2_5_4 directory, I installed and started a service named FB_254 3. backup database using FB 2.5.1 4. Restore using FB 2.5.4 5. Stop and uninstall both 2.5.1 and 2.5.4 services 6. Rename Firebird_2_5 folder to Firebird_2_5_1 folder 7. Rename Firebird_2_5_4 folder to Firebird_2_5 8. Install and start service from Firebird_2_5 folder
Will this work? Are all of these steps needed? Am I missing anything? Thank you in advance for any advice. Regards, Jake
