Magic Collaboration Studio data is visible in the new version only once the data migration is done. You can choose a migration strategy that works for you.


To upgrade Magic Collaboration Studio to a new version

  1. Stop the Magic Collaboration Studio services

  2. (Optional) Make a copy of the installation directory - this will leave a reference to the existing configuration, as well as a source for your signed certificates, if you are not using the self-signed certificates generated during the install.

  3. Uninstall older versions from your machine. Do not uninstall Cassandra.

  4. Install the new version of Magic Collaboration Studio on Linux or Windows.

    If you have changed the default Administrator username and password, you must update the twc.admin.username and twc.admin.password parameters, in the web application configuration file at <TWCloud install folder>/WebAppPlatform/shared/conf/webappplatform.properties.


  5. Start AuthServer, TeamworkCloud, and WebApp services.


 If you do not need your existing data, you can skip the database migration and delete the Cassandra database folder from your machine as described below.

The location of your data is configured in cassandra.yaml, as specified by the data_file_directories parameter


To delete the Cassandra database folder

  1. Stop Magic Collaboration Studio services (WebApp, AuthServer, TeamworkCloud).
  2. Execute the "nodetool drain".
  3. Stop Cassandra.
  4. Delete the data directory.
