We upgraded from 8.4.2 Community edition to 8.4.2 Developer edition, but Sonar is still showing as Community on the bottom of the page and there’s no License Manager tab under the Administration options.
Steps followed:
Stop Sonar service.
Uninstall service from previous version bin folder.
Edit new config files to match old version config files (connection string, java location etc).
Install service from new version bin folder.
Set service to run using service account.
Start service.
The documentation said there’s no need to run a setup but I checked anyway and it said the DB was up to date.
In the screenshot below you can see the path is pointing to the developer edition folder but it’s still registered as Community Edition.
