Update to Innoslate Enterprise 4.12

Important Notes to Update to Innoslate Enterprise v4.12

To update your Innoslate Enterprise installation to version 4.12, note that there is no automatic updater due to the new Java 21 and Apache Tomcat 11 requirements included in the installer. Users will want to manually copy and paste their existing settings.properties file after installation to preserve configurations. The user performing the update must have Administrator privileges on the machine where Innoslate is installed. Follow the steps below to prepare for this exciting update, due out September 2025.

Important Notes

  • Prerequisite: Before starting the installation, make and save a copy of your settings.properties file (typically located at C:\Innoslate4\apache-tomcat\webapps\innoslate4\WEB-INF). This is required to preserve your configurations, as the installer does not automatically retain this file from the prior configuration.
  • If your instance is configured for AI from 4.10, review the AI Configuration Notes below to update your settings.properties file after installation.

Update Instructions

  1. Back Up settings.properties:
    • Locate your settings.properties file (typically in C:\Innoslate4\apache-tomcat\webapps\innoslate4\WEB-INF).
    • Save a copy to a safe location (e.g., a backup folder) before proceeding.
  2. Download the Installer: Obtain the Innoslate 4.12 installer. (To be released September 2025)

AI Configuration Notes

For instances with AI capabilities, update the settings.properties file in C:\Innoslate4\apache-tomcat\webapps\innoslate4\WEB-INF after copying it to the new installation. If upgrading from v4.9 or v4.10 with existing AI settings, incorporate the following for v4.12 compatibility:
