36 AnySite v9 Install Guide
Upgrading Your Current
Installation
This chapter will guide you through the necessary steps to backup and migrate
your custom files, sites, reports, etc. in order to use them in the new AnySite v9
release of software and data.
Upgrades from AnySite 8.8.0 or earlier to AnySite 9.0 or later are not supported.
AnySite v9 requires a new installation of software due to the new features and
enhancements. If you have an existing AnySite 8.8.0 or earlier version installed,
you must move or copy specific files to a location outside of the AnySite applica-
tion directory.
In addition to software releases, data updates are provided as well which con-
tains the demographic content which is updated one to four times per year, de-
pending on your data provider. For each demographic update, updated tem-
plates for all “Standard” reports, thematics, Hotspots, and Capture Methods are
provided.
Please follow all steps in this chapter in order to retain custom files and preserve
work from prior versions of AnySite (8.8.X or older). These steps must be com-
pleted in order to use your custom files in your new installation of AnySite v9.
