[Pratik_Aswale]

Hello Developers,

I m trying to upgrade my running ThingWorxFoundationMSSQL-9.5.4-x64 on windows by using ThingWorx-Platform-Mssql-version-9-6-0 war file. I did all the steps which are mentioned on ptc page but it did not work. 

So can anyone please help me to upgrade Thingworx?

Thanks.

hi @Surya_Tiwari I follow the steps from below link-

https://support.ptc.com/help/thingworx/platform/r9.6/en/index.html#page/ThingWorx/Help/Installation/Installation/manual_inplace_upgrade_windows_9_3.html#wwID0E5GUS

And after this all steps I restart tomcat but after few second it will automatically stop.

Hello @Pratik_Aswale, in your ApplicationLog.log it clearly says that your ThingWorx version is still 9.5.4, not 9.6. So Tomcat didn't pick up that WAR file. Also, it seems that your ThingWorx was running for at least 20 minutes -- were you able to access Composer?
