Qlikview Upgrade

Hi Team,

Currently we are using Qlikview 12.20 version ,now we are planning to upgrade it  to  12.70 (May 2022) version.

Can we go for an upgrade directly from 12.20 to 12.70 ? Please suggest me if any issues in this approach.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Jay587,

I’m glad to learn there is a backup. Try running Notepad (or another text editing application such as Notepad++) as an administrator by right-clicking the Notepad icon and selecting Run as Administrator.  If you don’t have permissions to do so, contact your internal server team and have them make the change on the file.

Hello All,

Do I need to install first initial release of Qlikview May 2022 version and then install SR1 of May 2022 for the upgrade ?

Or Can I directly install Qlikview May 2022 SR1 ?

Please suggest me on this.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Jay587,

You can directly go to May 2022 SR1 version. Note that May 2022 SR2 was released yesterday. You can download the installation files here.

@Jay587 

In QlikView, the Service Releases (SR) are full installation packages, so you can install QlikView May 2022 SR1 directly.

(In QlikSense you have to install the main version first)

Hello ,

Many Thanks for the quick response.

I have one more doubt about the upgrade steps,there is one document(Attached) for the upgrade steps which I found in community and also when I refer the May 2022 upgrade I can see the below link with upgrade steps.

Please suggest me  which steps needs to be followed to the upgrade whether it is a document or steps mentioned in below link.

Hi @Jay587,

These QlikView items do not have to be upgraded prior to upgrading QlikView Server but should be upgraded ASAP so that all of these are running the same build version. Make sense?
