I'm wondering if 7.0.01 patch 001 is ready or not. This is rather humerous. In the email and server patch files, the same files have different sizes and modify dates:
SIZE FILE MODIFY TIME 4931640 ./server/solaris/api/lib/libarjni70.so 1/22/07 10:46 4931644 ./email/files/solaris/libarjni70.so 1/23/07 11:57 5915900 ./server/solaris/api/lib/libarxmlutil.so 1/22/07 10:48 5915868 ./email/files/solaris/libarxmlutil.so 1/23/07 12:01 I would assume that the same build tree was used to generate all the files, but maybe a different revision of the source was checked out when building the two programs? Kind of scary. Anyone know which one is newer or what's different? I could go by size, or modify time on the ftp server, but neither of those guarantee anything. I could download the installers, unpack them, grab the files I need, but geez, what a waste of bandwidth, seeing as it's in short supply at times.

** Hi David, Going forward, if this sort of thing happens again would it be possible to assign a new patch number, rather than recycling one for a patch which has already been released once? Otherwise the patch number really ceases to be a unique identifier.

At this time, I believe that all the files that are required are there. My understanding is that the installer was unaffected and it was only the files provided for those administrators that want to load the files manually that were erroneously omitted. In other words, if you installed via the installer, you're o.k. Thanks, -David J.

I'm debating trying out a completely new install to see if that works, but Patch 20 is a failure so far and I will not be deploying it to my production environment until the kinks are worked out. I also normally patch my AR System by overwriting files instead of running the installer since the installer is fairly buggy (it doesn't let you see long DB server names, etc.) but this time BMC didn't release all of the files needed. -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Heider, Stephen Sent: Wednesday, January 24, 2007 9:18 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: Issues since patch #19 or #20 ...getting ready to install patch 20 for ARS Server v6.3 (SQL Server, W2K3) on a dev server. Because the Installer also modifies forms I prefer copying the new files instead when installing patches. I submitted a RFE last year so that we have the option of _only_ installing patched files and not alter any forms or workflow. I shake my head when I think of these installers. What files are missing from the bin and lib folders (from supportweb) for patch 20? From the "Patch 20 - Install Issues" thread this month, is DWMAPI.DLL the only missing one? Are there any brand new files (appearing for the first time in patch 20) - if so, which folders would they go in? I am thinking that I may need to install patch 20 using the Installer on a new computer, then copy the files to the dev server.
