OS Platform and windows upgrade (Windows Server 2022) - looking for lessons learned

Naren

Question

Hi everyone,

OutSystems Support has informed us that our Platform Server will be upgraded as part of a Windows Server upgrade (moving to Windows Server 2022) which will require upgrading our Platform Server version to OutSystems 11.40. We are currently running OutSystems 11.18

Has anyone already completed an upgrade from 11.18 (or similar) to 11.40, especially alongside a Windows Server 2022 upgrade?
Did you face any application issues or unexpected behaviour after the upgrade (runtime, performance, integrations ,Ecternal DB connectivity, etc.)?

Any experiences (good or bad) would really help

Regards,
N

Hi @Naren ,

Yes I'm currently doing this for some of our clients. 11.18.1 to 11.40.

What I found while doing this is mainly already stated on https://success.outsystems.com/support/release_notes/11/platform_server/ and https://success.outsystems.com/support/release_notes/11/outsystems_11_side_effects_and_breaking_changes on breaking changes.

Also some of the plugin have deprecated action and or change the module / action entirely, for example :

https://www.outsystems.com/forge/component-overview/12174/cloud-messaging-plugin-firebase-o11 => action changed (deprecated)
https://www.outsystems.com/forge/component-overview/5641/ultimate-pdf-o11 => module changed, need to remove old dependency and add the new one, and fixing the action for print

Check the forge component version and documentation for info on your forge plugin.
