I've just updated my IBM MobileFirst Platform Server from 8.0.0.00-20160822-2140 with the latest iFix 8.0.0.0-MFPF-Server-IF201702201900
However, after a successful update, the server is still showing the same old version in the IBM MobileFirst Platform Operations Console.
Does it means it's still not updated with the latest iFix?
I've double confirmed that the fix is indeed installed:
Do I need to update those superseded iFix first before upgrading to the latest iFix?
Vivin above is correct. Installation Manager merely puts the files on disk. You must now update your database by running the Server Configuration Tool, or whatever method you used when your server was first configured. Since the version number is stored in the database, the old version number will appear in the Operations Console until the database update is performed.
Able to get it to work after running cd /opt/IBM/MobileFirst_Platform_Server/shortcuts
sudo ./configuration-tool.sh again and restart the server. Didn't know there's a need to do so after updating the iFix. Is this common?
You can Download the MobileFirst Developer Kit Installer (IF20170220-1900) for Customer and Evaluators copy direct from

I have followed the steps in http://wiki.joanillo.org/images/1/11/Community_user_guide.pdf but I am unable to run the server
That document refers to version 3.x of Pentaho. Current version is 8.2. The doc is out of date by several years.
There’s no folder biserver-ce anymore, it’s now called pentaho-server. The script’s name is still the same.
You will need a JDK installed (1.8 or above, and if you install Pentaho 8.2 you should use openJDK)
i hope you have started the server, if not run this file using terminal /pentaho-server/start-pentaho.sh ....
please provide the log it will be in the path pentahoserver->tomcat->logs->catalina.out
I upgraded the mettermost version from 4.4.1 to 4.5.
However, I got the error...
So, I tried to downgrade the version to 4.4.1, but the mattermost said "The database schema of the older version isn't supported".
Does anyone know how we should modify the database schema.
※browser: FireFox ESR 52
Unfortunately you can't downgrade a Mattermost install to a previous version through any officially supported path. You will need to revert to the database backup from before the upgrade in order to go back to version 4.4.
However, for the specific versions in question (reverting from 4.5 to 4.4) it is possible to do a downgrade as there are no database schema changes between these two versions. You will need to run the following SQL command in your Mattermost database:
UPDATE Systems SET Value='4.4.0' WHERE Name='Version';
You should then be able to run Mattermost 4.4.1 successfully on that database.
I have installed the MobileFirst Platform CLI developer edition from https://developer.ibm.com/mobilefirstplatform/install/#clui
I am trying to investigate the analytics of the application, but this doesn't seem to be properly installed from here.
I am able to create a MFP server, start it and access the console. It doesn't have a link to the analytics in the top-right of the console as it does in the developer edition provided by Eclipse. Is this behaviour as expected or is there something missing?
I have tried installing this package twice. I am running on OSX 10.10
In the Liberty servers directory, /Users//.ibm/mobilefirst/6.3.0/server/wlp/usr/servers, I can see the Worklight folder. It has an _analytics.war file in it (which is different from my Eclipse install which has a worklight-analytics.war and worklight-analytics-service.war)
And in the messages.log file, I am getting messages saying that the web application _analytics is available.
But I then a number of messages with
com.worklight.analytics.api.AnalyticsHttpService.sendDataToURL target server response code: 404
Going directly to http://localhost:10080/_analytics responds with an "Authorization failed" message.
Update - Got it working
I uninstalled the dev edition CLI and downloaded the CLI from Passport Advantage and installed it from there. The analytics feature now seems to work. Although the link to it is still not available in the top right of the console.
I don't know if it's a different install package, or an issue on my Mac that I inadvertently resolved, but the analytics feature is now working
The issue here was that the version you originally downloaded was not up-to-date.
This will be corrected soon.
Proper mechanisms will be put in place so that this will not happen again.
Yesterday I downloaded and installed the publically available MobileFirst Platform 6.3 CLI from https://developer.ibm.com/mobilefirstplatform/install/#clui. I created a simple app which connects to the MFP server.
Result: Analytics works without any problem.
So you do not have to buy the product just to use the CLI with analytics.
I have installed WAS 7.0.0.31 and trying to update WL 6.1.0 to 6.1.0.1 using IBM Installation Manager. WAS processes were stopped.
All IIM steps went fine, and the final step - click the Update button.
It made some progress (see the screen) and stuck.
After some period of time (like 30 minutes) I decided to click Cancel (see the screen) - it did not help.
So, what am I now expected to do? Are there any logs which Worklight post-install script may write, or can I manually run this port-install script?
P.S. Before this I updated Worklight to 6.1.0.1 for WAS 8.5 Liberty Profile on this machine, which completed fine.
P.P.S. Rebooted, re-tried and left for 1 hour, and it seems successfully completed this time. How can I check fixpack version level for Worklight server? Any property file?

I do not believe the server holds any "property file" with the version number.
You can check this in 2 ways:
You should be able to see this in the IBM Installation Manager, it should list what is already installed... 6101 (for 6101 or 6101+ifix).
A bit more involved, but you can deploy a .war, and in Worklight Console you can then click on About, there you will see the server version.
I installed worklight 5.0.6 on a Linux system using silient mode. Now, I want to upgrade worklight server to 5.0.6.1 using silient mode as well.
Does Worklight allow silient upgrade ? If yes, is there any guidance for this ?
Yes, IBM Worklight Server 5.0.5 or newer supports silent upgrade, just like silent install.
The procedure is the same as documented in the IBM Worklight manual:
Do the same operation (in this case, an upgrade 5.0.6 -> 5.0.6.1) on a machine that has a usable GUI, using the Installation Manager wizard, and using the option '-record responseFile'.
Modify the settings in the response file so that it matches the target machine.
Execute the response file on the target machine, using the imcl command.
