Ray Hindman Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 We are running BW 5.11 engines in production. We are required to upgrade the servers to run the BW 5.14 runtime. Is is supported to deploy a BW 5.11 ear file into a server that has BW5.14 installed In essence; it the BW 5.14 runtime backwardly compatible with engines (ear files) built and validated with 5.11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BWCS Team Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Typically, this should work with no issues. However, the ideal approach is to open the project in 5.14, rebuild the EAR file and redeploy it. That would resolve an issues. If you don't have the source code for the EAR file, look in the "data files" in your deployment server and find the project root. You can open that in 5.14 in Designer and rebuild the EAR file.

Mohamed Shahat 2 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Hi Ray, hope you're keeping well. the official answer for your question should be based on the release notes and the upgrade steps there. A good practice is to file a Case with TIBCO Support and make them aware of your Go Live plans with the new version. having said that, in my experience, this has worked just fine. Again, every environment is unique and depends on what activities/features being used. So always have a regression in place as part of the upgrade exercise.
