Compatibility and upgrade
-
FileMaker Cloud 1.15.x is compatible with FileMaker version 15.0.2 clients at minimum.
Note:FileMaker Cloud 1.16.x (available in October 2017) will only be compatible with FileMaker 16 clients.
-
You can upgrade to FileMaker Cloud 1.15.2.32 from these versions:
- FileMaker Cloud 1.15.1.35
- FileMaker Cloud 1.15.0.194
- FileMaker Cloud 1.15.0.185; you must apply the FMUpdate001 patch to upgrade successfully
Note:After upgrading from FileMaker Cloud version 1.15.0.185 or 1.15.0.194, you must refresh your instance before attaching or detaching snapshots of database volumes.
FileMaker clients
-
When uploading database files to FileMaker Cloud:
- In FileMaker Pro Advanced, encrypt the file before upload.
- If you have FileMaker Pro and will upload an unencrypted file, check the space on your storage volume. You need at least three times the file size in space available to upload. If you don't have that much space available, upgrade the AWS storage volume size before uploading to FileMaker Cloud.
-
When a CSV or TAB file with UTF-8 encoding that contains about 1500 Asian-language characters and has macOS end-of-line (EOL) or UNIX line endings is imported using the Perform Script on Server script step or FileMaker WebDirect, the imported characters become unknown characters.
To import characters as expected, do one of the following:
- insert double quotation marks around each field value
- save the file with a different encoding such as UTF-16
- save the file in a non-text based file format such as FMP12, MER, or XLSX
-
Addressed the following issues:
- The Get(InstalledFMPlugins) function returned an incorrect version.
- The Get(HostName) function did not return an updated host name in FileMaker Pro clients after the domain name had been changed by importing a custom certificate.
