Upgrade DB from 8.2 to 8.3

Hi fabien covez ,

To narrow this down — how did you perform the upgrade?

a) In‑place upgrade: Did you run the 8.3 installer on the existing server and click Upgrade? After the reboot, the Active Roles Configuration Center should start and run the upgrade, which creates the new 8.3 database(s) and migrates your previous version's data automatically (your old database is kept intact). The "version mismatch" message usually means the new service was pointed at the un‑upgraded 8.2 database directly, instead of letting this wizard run.

b) Fresh install (old version removed): In Configuration Center → Administration Service → Active Roles databases, click Change to create the new 8.3 database, then on the same page use Import configuration to bring your 8.2 configuration/data across.

A couple of details that would help me pinpoint it:

Guides:

• In‑place upgrade: docs.oneidentity.com/.../upgrade-in-place.htm
• Configuring during in‑place upgrade: docs.oneidentity.com/.../upgrade-in-place-configuration.htm
• Import configuration: https://docs.oneidentity.com/bundle/active-roles_upgrade-guide_8.3/page/guides/upgradegu ge-config-ars-import-config-data.htm

Cheers,
