PRODUCT: K2 Five 5.2
BASED ON: K2 Five 5.2
The K2 Five (5.2) May 2019 Cumulative Update contains updates and fixes for issues reported in K2 Five (5.2). K2 recommends keeping your K2 environment updated by installing the latest cumulative update, and that you test this update before you deploy to a production environment.
Prerequisites and Dependencies
This cumulative update is only compatible with K2 Five (5.2). Each new cumulative update contains the updates and fixes that were included with the previous cumulative updates. The cumulative update does not require any previous cumulative updates or fixes to be installed, and no additional cumulative update is required to fully update a K2 environment. If you have installed individual hotfixes included in this cumulative update, those hotfixes are not changed unless a newer version of the hotfix is available for the update.
Before you install this cumulative update, please check the K2 Product Releases and Build Numbers article to verify that this is the latest cumulative update available and that you have a current backup of your K2 database.
Caution: Database owner permissions are required to install this cumulative update or any of the fix packs.
Getting and installing the update
You can download the K2 Five (5.2) May 2019 Cumulative Update on the K2 Partner and Customer portal.
To install the cumulative update, run the cumulative update installer on every machine in your environment where a K2 product or component is installed, including desktop machines that have K2 Studio or K2 Designer for Visual Studio installed. The same installer is used to update the specific K2 products and components that are installed on that machine. To determine which cumulative update or fix pack has previously been installed in your environment see https://help.k2.com/kb000426.
