If the current Installer has already been executed and you want to modify the configuration, execute the same Installer again and select Modify to make the required configuration changes. Then, re-install the application.
The Installer account must have security admin and DB creator server roles on the SQL Server used for installation. On the database, the Installer account used must have the DB owner role.
- If you change the website/ URL during the modification of the configuration/reinstallation, execute
Modify Evolve Worker Installer to add and support the new URL.
- Message queues such as wsworkflow, wsreporting, wsinfra, and wsautorunfile are created by the server Installer. If you delete any of these, they should be recreated by running the Modify server Installer.
The prerequisites are the same as the Fresh Installation prerequisites. Identify the configuration which needs to be modified.
Recommendation: create a backup before performing a modification.
