The recommended upgrade procedure is to first
uninstall any previous versions of Fyracle and only
then to install the new 0.8.9 release. Remember
to save your configuration files (firebird.conf
and aliases.conf) if you changed them!

The uninstaller has a start menu entry on Windows
and can be found at the top of the install
directory on Linux and Windows.

Please review your java configuration file after
installation. The first non-comment line should
contain a path to your java virtual machine (jvm.dll),
the second non-comment line should contain a path
to the plugin jdbc driver.


Roadmap/Outlook:

Full public releases of Fyracle 0.8.9 should be available
in the course of the week commencing 17 October.
