This is a step by step to upgrade IntelliFront BI 32 bit to IntelliFront BI 64 bit.
IntelliFront 64Bit cannot co exist with CRD, which is a 32Bit application. CRD will stop working if IntelliFront 64Bit is installed on the same server.
Before Upgrading...
- Please make sure you are using a 64-bit Operating System.
- Recreate all the ODBC DSNs in use by IntelliFront BI datasets in the 64-bit ODBC DSN Administrator
- Recreate all the ODBC DSNs used by your Crystal Reports in the 64-bit ODBC DSN Administrator
Upgrading IntelliFront BI 32 bit to 64 bit
