Converting 32-bit installation of ADAudit Plus to 64-bit installation

1. Check the product build number.
2. If it's not the latest build, upgrade your 32-bit version of ADAudit Plus to the latest build using the service pack below- https://www.manageengine.com/products/active-directory-audit/service-pack.html
3. Install the latest 64-bit version of ADAudit Plus in a different computer. Do not start the product.
4. Stop the 32-bit installation.
5. Rename the lib, jre, and bin folders as lib_old, jre_old, and bin_old respectively in your 32-bit installation.
6. Now copy the lib, jre, and bin folders from the 64-bit installation folder and paste it into the 32-bit installation folder.
   Note:

   If the back-end DataBase is MS SQL, in addition to copying and pasting the lib, jre, and bin folders,

   • Go to bin_old folder found under the 32-bit installation folder, copy and paste the following 2 files- bcp.exe and bcp.rll to the bin folder found under the 32-bit installation folder (copy-pasted in step 6).

   If the back-end DataBase is MySQL, in addition to copying and pasting the lib, jre, and bin folders,

   • Go to bin_old folder found under the 32-bit installation folder, copy and paste the following 3 files- StartDB.bat, StopDB.bat, and SetCommonEnv.bat, to the bin folder found under the 32-bit installation folder (copy-pasted in step 6).
   • Go to conf folder under the 64-bit installation folder, copy and paste the file wrapper.conf to the conf folder under the 32-bit installation folder. Open the wrapper.conf file and change pgsql (refer to the image below) to mysql.

   

7. Go to \ManageEngine\ADAudit Plus\conf folder in 32-bit installation.
8. Open product.conf file using Wordpad.
