Applies to
DocuWare on-premises. 7.0–7.14.
What to check
For a MySQL-backed system, the upgrade simulation has location and tooling prerequisites. A disabled option does not by itself indicate corrupt DocuWare databases.
Practical steps
- Confirm the database engine and the machine hosting it.
- Check whether DocuWare setup is being run on that database-server machine, as required by the source.
- Verify that the MySQL utilities are present in the expected MySQL location before attempting the simulation again.
Confirm the result
Confirm the simulation becomes available and inspect its outcome before scheduling the upgrade. Treat missing prerequisites separately from a simulation that runs and reports an actual migration error.
