Scenario:

• Dealer has ALEX Millennium running on a network
• Dealer is attempting to upload a database from a client machine and receives the message “database is too old”
• Dealer is not able to upload the database from their server (i.e. .NET 4.5.2 is missing and the install during ALEX Pro is requiring a reboot of the server.  Dealer cannot re-start the server in the middle of the day.)

Instructions:

1. Open ALEX, perform database back to the client machine.  Note the path the backup
2. ALEX Mill: Database Connection Setup > make a note of connection (you will want to change this back later)
3. ALEX Mill: Database Connection Setup > Change the server path to .\SQLEXPRESS
4. Run the ALEX 13/13.x update on the client.  This will update the local “blank” database.
5. Open ALEX Millennium
6. Confirm a blank/old database exists (be 100% sure you are not still connected to the server!)
7. Restore the backup (from step #1)
8. Once the restore is complete, exit ALEX Millennium
9. Attempt to upload the ALEX database from the Client computer
10. Once the upload has completed, ALEX Mill: Database Connection Setup > Change the server back to the original path (noted is step 2)
