AW: [ISSForum] Manual Upgrader says it cannot find the license fi le

[Mohr James]

Title: Nachricht

At this point, running it once or twice is pretty moot. I have not even been able to run it once. It simply will not take the license key. When I start the manual upgrader, it asks for a license key, so I selec the one containing the sensors (as someone suggested). Each time, I get the message "The license file was not found." The license file is in the same directory and the manual upgrade and I am given a dailog box where I input the location, so why cannot it find the file????

 

Regards,

See below.

Again, I'm new at this, so I could be wrong, but here's how I did it.

1) I ran MU on my laptop to download all the updates.

2) I copied the entire directory structure of MU over to the SP server

3) I copied the 5 xml files (in the MU directory) to the %appserver%\XPU

directory

4) I ran MU on the server, declined to download the catalogs (because I

can't) and then chose File\Copy Files to RSSP and "pointed to" the xml

files in the XPU directory

At that point, MU created an update directory under %appserver%\XPU and

copied all the files from the MU directory to the %appserver%\XPU\update

directory.  There are subdirectories under update for Internet Scanner,

Site Protector, etc.

So, you *do* have to run MU on the server, in order to get the files

copied to the correct location, but you also have to run it on a box

that has Internet access in order to download the udpates.

[Ballerini, Jean Paul (ISS EMEA)] You don't have to run the MU twice. Once it has run on your machine connected to the Internet, you just have to copy the xml files and the update directory (with subdirectories).

Afterwards, you have to get SPCore to re-read the xml files (the simplest way is to open the properties, check and uncheck a box, and apply. This will apply the properties and do the trick).

At that moment you'll have the updates available on the AppServer, ready to be applied.

 

BTW, you can delete the update directory on the server any time you want

and just run MU again to recreate it.

The updates won't work unless your license is "registered" with both SP

and the scanner (and I would assume any other pieces you have - we only

have scanner and SP right now.)

[Ballerini, Jean Paul (ISS EMEA)] MU only needs one valid license. When you start it, it will check if it is still valid and then run.

HTH.
