Activity Steps

  1. Perform one of the following steps:
    1. Start the MineMarket Database Upgrade Wizard as a stand-alone program:
      1. Navigate to the MineMarket Server installation folder.

      2. Click Next.

        Note: The MineMarket setup wizard checks whether some prerequisite components (for example, for Crystal Reports) are installed.
