Subject: Navigator Server 10.5.0
Date: 14-Oct-2022
File: Nav_Server_10.5.0.zip
Note: In versions prior to 10.4.2, navigator-server.war contained database JDBC drivers. This has been corrected and they are no longer included. Some customers may have relied on these drivers being present and did copy the required JDBC jar files into the application server lib folder. If after applying this update, you experience problems related to missing JDBC drivers, please copy the required drivers from either the provider website, the AutoPilotM6 lib or other reliable source.

ABOUT:
This package can be used for a new installation or to update an existing installation.
Please see the WGS Expert installation guide for specific steps to proceed.
This version ships the Navx security manager web application (navxwsm). The package also includes the original web security manager (apodwsm). Both are compatible with 10.5 and either (or both) can be used. Navigator 10.5 will be the last release to support compatibility with apodwsm.
Installation Overview
- Stop all Navigator processes (including CEP and Domain Server).
- Back up the %APWMQ_HOME% directory and existing database tables.
- Place Nav_Server_10.5.0.zip in the installation directory (%APWMQ_HOME%).
- Unzip the file.
- Extract contents 'here', under %APWMQ_HOME%, replacing existing content.
- Run pkgman to install the latest WGS_10 package.
a} if a new install, install additional packages such as resource packs, scheduler, experts. - Run nsqjdbcmk to upgrade your database tables.
- Copy the war files from the webapps folder to the Tomcat webapps folder.
- Restart Navigator processes.
- Finalize any setup for WGS operation, including configuration of WGS, REST API and scheduler.
IMPORTANT UPGRADE NOTES:
When upgrading from a version prior to 10.1.x, you will need to review the connection definitions. See the Installation Guide or this FAQ (https://customers.meshiq.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500001339321) for details. In Summary, 10.1.x and higher move the management of Workgroup server connections from a user task to an administrator task. However, since existing definitions may have various attributes, a first step after upgrading is for an administrator to review the generated ones (names start GEN_), rename them and clean up any that are not required.
If upgrading to Scheduler 1.11 to a later version and you want to preserve currently scheduled jobs, a manual SQL statement must be run. Please contact your Support Representative for help with this step.
