You can update an existing OpenEdge installation from a Long-Term Supported (LTS) release, an Innovation release, or a prior Incremental Update to a newer Incremental Update within the same LTS or Innovation release stream. For example, if you have installed the 12.2.18 version of OpenEdge on your system, you can update it to the 12.2.19 or later Incremental Update within the 12.2 LTS.

Each new Incremental Update includes only cumulative changes, that is, changes introduced in the earlier Updates are included in the current Update. These changes may include bug fixes and security patches.

Prerequisites

  • Download the required OpenEdge software image from the Progress Download Center, also known as Electronic Software Distribution (ESD).
  • Close all the OpenEdge applications or the processes because they can interfere with the installation or use files that the installer needs to complete the update.
