1. Stop Applications Manager

Windows : <AppManager_home>\shutdownApplicationsManager.bat -force

Linux : <AppManager_home>/shutdownApplicationsManager.sh -force

2. Check and prepare the bin, lib, and LICENSE Folders in working/pgsql/

✅ If bin_15.15, lib_15.15, and LICENSE_15.15 already exist (renamed by upgrade)

The upgrade has already renamed the old folders as backup. 

Delete the following partially copied folders inside <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql/

• bin
• lib
• LICENSE
  

 Delete only the folders that are partially copied or corrupted.

Then proceed to Step 3.

❌ If bin, lib, and LICENSE are still the original folders (NOT renamed yet)

The upgrade has not yet renamed them. Please rename the following folders before proceeding:

Rename  <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql/bin to  <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql/bin_15.15

Rename  <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql/lib to  <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql/lib_15.15

Rename  <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql/LICENSE to  <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql/LICENSE_15.15

Then proceed to Step 3.

3. Copy New Folders from Staging Directory

Ensure that the directory <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql_15.17/ exists and contains the following folders:

Copy:

1. <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql_15.17/bin to <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql/bin
   
2. <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql_15.17/lib to <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql/lib
3. <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql_15.17/LICENSE to <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql/LICENSE
   

If the pgsql_15.17 Directory is missing

1. Use the attached PostgreSQL package (ZIP files).
   
2. Two ZIP files are available: pgsql_15.17_windows.zip and pgsql_15.17_linux.zip (Please refer to the attachment for the Linux version).
   
3. Extract the appropriate ZIP file based on your environment (Windows/Linux).
   
4. From the extracted contents, locate the pgsql/ folder.
   
5. Copy these folders into: <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql/

4. Set Permissions (Linux Only)

chmod -R 757  <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql/bin

chmod -R 757  <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql/lib

chmod -R 757  <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql/LICENSE

5. Verify the New Version Binary

Run the following to confirm PostgreSQL 15.17 binaries are in place:

Windows: <AppManager_home>\working\pgsql\bin\pg_ctl.exe" --version

Linux: <AppManager_home>/working/pgsql/bin/pg_ctl --version

Expected output: pg_ctl (PostgreSQL) 15.17

6. Delete the Staging Directory

Once the copy is verified, delete the following staging directory:

Delete the following folder inside <AppManager_home>/working/


• pgsql_15.17
  

7. Start Applications Manager

8. Delete the Old Backup Folders

Once Applications Manager starts successfully, delete the following old backup folders:

Delete the following folders inside<AppManager_home>/working/pgsql/


• bin_15.15
• lib_15.15
• LICENSE_15.15
