Automated Utilities, Backup and Rollback on Failed Data Upgrade

Data Rollback

In case the user experiences any issues while upgrading — such as corrupted data — AuctionFlex is now set to roll back to the previous version and data so those concerns can be addressed and the upgrade process can be attempted again.

Pre-Upgrade Backup

Before the upgrade process proceeds, AuctionFlex will create a backup of:

  • The customer's data

  • The executable (.exe)

  • The original auctionflex.ini file

Upgrade Failure Process

  1. The customer receives an upgrade error message.

2. An email prompt appears with a prewritten message. If the customer has email configured in the software, this sends an email to support explaining that the update failed.

3. This email includes:

  • The customer's company information

  • Error log files, which can be reviewed to determine why the update failed

4. Once the rollback process completes, the customer receives a confirmation message.
