Hi Lars

Indeed it is. The folder structure you need is like this:

Root folder
|_ Application(19.2.0.0)
|_ Application(19.2.0.1)
.
.
.
|_ Application(19.2.4.2) <- Lets assume this folder is your current application folder
|_ Application(19.2.4.3)

If your structure matches this, then you can use Manage versions to change between them.

Hi Jeppe,
thanks for your reply. In the meantime I found out my self. But I would like to add, that the root folder holding all the "Application(xx.x.x.x)" folders can be placed anywhere in the folder structure. And not to forget.... if you download the Dynamicweb builds on a Windows 2008 Server don't forget to unblock the zip-archive BEFORE unzipping the archive. The unblocking of the zip-archive is done by right clicking on the zip-archive and selecting "Properties" and clicking the "Unblock" button on the "General" sheet.

Now when I try to switch to another version by using the "Manage versions" feature in the Management Center I get this errormessage:
Access is denied.

How can I fix this access problem?

The identity running the AppPool process needs to have permission to edit the metabase in IIS. This is usually admin level.



- Jeppe

Can you please describe how to do that?

Sorry no. This is not something I can go into any more detail with. This functionality is meant as a Host Nordic hosted feature only.

OK, I have already submitted a supportcase to Host Nordic :-)
