Meantime, an upgrade kit 31 has software components upgrading the version to be introduced to the execution environment, a version upgrade program 33, and flags 37 for indicating whether or not each software component is compatible with a customized software component in the software execution environment 9. The upgrade program 33 compares the flags 14 of the execution environment 9 and the flags 37 of the upgrade kit 31, and in consideration of the comparison results, determines whether or not to execute an upgrade.
