Retaining Legacy Data
Upgrading SYSTRAN Enterprise Server 6 involves not only the installation of a new
version of the product, but also the successful transfer of pertinent legacy data to the
new installation. The specific legacy data to transfer, indicated by its directory location,
includes:
systran.war/config
Directory containing configuration files that can be
modified by the administrator, and which may be restored
when updating
systran.war/database
Directory containing the database information; includes
profiles, users, groups, RSS feeds
systran.war/userdict
Directory contains user dictionaries, translation memories
and normalization directories
systran.war/custom and
systran.war/template
Look-and-feel customization elements
libsyslic.ls
License registration file; usually located in:
Windows: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\SYSTRAN
Linux/Solaris: /etc/systran/ (unless a different location is specified during installation)
The carrying over of data customization to the new installation also requires
modification to other files, such as StringTable.xml or nnnnn.jsp files, which must be
captured from the original installation and applied to the new installation.
