Applies to
DocuWare on-premises. 7.6–7.14; after Internal Database V2-to-V3 migration.
What to check
The source describes a simulation failure that cannot locate mysqladmin.exe after the internal database has moved from V2 to V3. It says the actual upgrade uses the corrected database configuration.
Practical steps
- Confirm the previous database migration and match the simulation log to the source's missing-tool-path symptom.
- Verify the live database connection, backups and recovery plan before proceeding.
- Have the responsible administrator assess the KBA's instruction to omit simulation for this exact case; do not generalize it to unrelated upgrade errors.
Confirm the result
Validate the upgraded system and its core operations afterward. An unexplained simulation failure still requires investigation rather than being bypassed because it looks similar.
