BSNEE Installation Guide 1
INTRODUCTION
This manual will guide you through the process of upgrading your BSNEE
services to version 4.0. Note that you can only use the 4.0 Upgrade Installer to
upgrade from BSNEE version 3.9. BSNEE 3.9 installations that were upgraded
using a previous version of the Upgrade Installer are also supported.
The BSNEE upgrade installer can only upgrade standard BSNEE installs with
standard database schema. However, BSNEE installs with customized WebUI
files are supported.
