Installing AASHTOWare Project Updates

If the AASHTOWare Project software is already installed on an agency server, you can install an updated version without uninstalling the old version by running the provided InstallShield program. Any IIS configuration you performed in a previous installation will not be changed. The update process automatically uses the same folder used in the previous installation.

See Part III: Install or Update, and Configure AASHTOWare Project of the AASHTOWare Project Installation Instructions, available in the in the AASHTOWare_Project zipped installation file.

Generating the Business Metadata after Updates

When your agency updates web-based AASHTOWare Project to a new version, you may need to regenerate the custom business metadata for specific entities in order to add the information needed for new fields that have been added in the application. You will only need to do this if you have previously customized the business metadata file manually.

For detailed instructions on how to generate system metadata, see the Adding Agency Fields section Chapter 6 of the System Administration Customization Guide, available from the Documentation folder in the AASHTOWare_Project zipped installation file.
