Upgrade from SEC 4.7 to SEC 50

Hi - I need to know how to upgrade SEC 4.7 to 50 but more so on the database side

We have the following set up:

Windows_ServerA running SEC4.7 and Update Mgr

Windows_ServerB running SQL 2008 Server with SOPHOS47 database

I can upgrade the SEC console no problem, but need advise on how to upgrade the SOPHOS47 DB to SOPHOS50 ?

On the SEC server to talk to the remote database, we modified this key:

Provider=SQLOLEDB;Integrated Security=SSPI;Initial Catalog=SOPHOS47;Data Source=<serverB>;

  • I had exactly the same issue on an SQL 2005 database (Console on separate machine). 90 minutes of Sophos on remote control and they couldn't fix it. I ended up running the installer to create the database on a test SQL server (still go the error there once too!) and doing a backup/restore to move it onto the live one. Upgrading failed still but at least could install the console and start from scratch, though hardly ideal.
