Follow the steps in this article when moving the Platform Server installation from one path to another, for example from C:\Program Files\OutSystems\Platform Server to D:\Program Files\OutSystems\Platform Server.

These steps are not applicable when moving the Platform Server installation to a different server.

This operation applies only to on-premises installations.

In the deployment controller server

In the server with the Deployment Controller role do the following:

  1. Stop IIS: open IIS Manager and click Stop on the right pane under Manage Server > Actions.

  2. Stop all OutSystems Services. You can do this in the Services application in Windows to all services that start with 'OutSystems'.

  3. Backup the private.key and server.hsconffiles present in the installation folder (by default C:\Program files\OutSystems\Platform Server).

  4. Uninstall the current OutSystems platform. This should be done by using the operating system's features to manage installed programs (for example, in Windows Server Control Panel > Programs and Features).

  5. Re-install the OutSystems platform on the new path (ex: D:\Program files\OutSystems\Platform Server). To do this you'll need to run PlaformServer.exe of the same version.

  6. Restore the private.key file and server.hsconf files backed up on step 2 on the new installation path overwriting any files that may be present.

  7. Start IIS: open IIS Manager and click Start on the right pane under Manage Server > Actions.

  8. Open the Configuration Tool and click Apply and Exit.

  9. A popup will be shown asking you to run the Service Center installation. Accept by clicking Yes.

  10. Publish System Components.

  11. Re-publish all apps.

In any additional front-end server

If your OutSystems environment has additional front-end servers, after executing the above steps on the deployment controller server, execute steps 1 through 9 on each of the front-end servers.
