Issue

  • While upgrading, and using the JBoss EAP 7.4 app server, users need the steps to complete the DB upgrade. Users have access to the upgrade tool in bundled Tomcat, but not in the JBOSS setup.

Environment

  • Liferay DXP 7.4

Resolution

  • Liferay has an option called "Admin tools" [select specific update> under 'Additional Files' ] that users can download and install in the required environment: Downloads - Help Center
    Extract this and obtain the 'portal-tools-db-upgrade-client' folder, which should be placed in the tools folder within Liferay's home directory. If there is no tools folder, please create one.
