Upgrading from i2b2 1.7.05+ to 1.7.08b
Introduction
The release of i2b2 1.7.08 introduced a major platform change in which the JBoss 7 application server was replaced with WildFly 10 (formerly known as “JBoss” 10), and JDK 8 became required. If you installed i2b2 from source originally, the general upgrade path would follow:
- Install WildFly 10 and migrate your configurations to it
- Upgrade to JDK 8
- Build i2b2 from source and deploy into WildFly 10
With consideration that you may be using custom ports, proxies, HTTPS, and other custom configurations that must be re-setup in WildFly from scratch and/or may be incompatible with WildFly, we have introduced a new upgrade path for using your existing JBoss 7 with i2b2 1.7.08b by providing drop-in JARs.
Technical Details
We are providing a zip file containing a pre-compiled version of i2b2 1.7.08b that you can drop into your existing instance to upgrade i2b2. The JARs were compiled with JDK 7 and will run in your existing JBoss 7 application server. The upgrade technique will work on both Linux and Windows environments.
You should meet all of the following requirements to use this upgrade path:
- You should be running JBoss 7 (tested on JBoss-as-7.1.1.Final) and JRE 7
- You are on i2b2 versions 1.7.05, 1.7.06, or 1.7.07
- You either installed i2b2 from source or are using the i2b2 VMWare virtual machine (1.7.05, 1.7.06, or 1.7.07 only)
