Reset an Existing Oqtane

If you have already installed a previous version of Oqtane and you wish to do a clean database install, simply reset the DefaultConnection value in the Oqtane.Server\appsettings.json file to "". This will trigger a re-install when you run the application which will execute the database installation scripts.

Install Oqtane for Development

Oqtane Version 3 (.NET 6)

1. Install .NET 6 SDK

2. Install the latest edition of Visual Studio 2022 with the ASP.NET and web development workload enabled. Oqtane works with ALL editions of Visual Studio from Community to Enterprise.

3. If you wish to use LocalDB for development (not a requirement as Oqtane supports SQLite, mySQL and PostgreSQL) you must also install the Data storage and processing.

4. Clone the Oqtane dev branch source code to your local system. Open the Oqtane.sln solution file and Build the solution.

5. Make sure you specify Oqtane.Server as the Startup Project and then Run the application.
