Instructions for updating through Web UI

warning

If you are using Sahi Pro v9.0.1 or above version, you can easily update to Sahi Pro v9.7.0 through Update Sahi Pro web UI.
For updating from Sahi Pro v9.0.0, please follow the instructions below.

On Linux OS, after upgrading through Update Sahi Pro web UI please grant permission for the <Sahi_Installation>/userdata/bin/verify_ssl_root_cert_linux.sh file.
Eg: chmod 755 verify_ssl_root_cert_linux.sh
On Windows OS, when using any DB apart from H2, the Update feature stops working.
You need to update at least once from Sahi Pro 9.0.0 version in this manner to ensure all future updates work fine.

Resolution:
You will need to temporarily switch your database to H2 > Perform the Update and then Switch back to your current database settings.
For more information about using different databases for reports please see the document for Use a Different Database in Using Sahi.

Steps:
1. Take a backup of your existing database. (It may be "mysql", "mssql", "postgresql", "oracle" etc.) When upgrading Sahi Pro and reverting your database back to your current one, your db will also get updated. So, in order to avoid losing any data, taking a backup is a must before proceeding to the below steps.
2. Switch your database settings to H2 database.
3. Perform update through Update Sahi Pro web UI.
4. Now Switch back to your original DB settings.
Delete the Firefox profiles directory <Sahi_Installation>/userdata/browser/ff/profiles and restart Sahi.
