Updating SEAL APW Service¶
Requirements¶
- internet access for downloading the zip file from the SEAL Systems delivery platform
Instructions¶
With SEAL APW Service 4.7.0 the directory structure of the installation changes. Therefore the update requires different steps depending on your current version of SEAL Add Printer Wizard:
Hint - SOAP::Lite package for Perl required
You have to install the 20181204_perl_soap-lite_1.27_part.zip
package with easyPRIMA, if you
- use HTTPS/SSL data transfer to SEAL APW Service 4.7.0 and
- use easyPRIMA version 1.3.1 or later.
Otherwise, the export from easyPRIMA to SEAL APW Service will not work. In this case the 500 SSL negotiation failed
error message is written into the edc.log
log file.
Stop the system and any Perl processes completely with sysstop -full
before you install the 20181204_perl_soap-lite_1.27_part.zip
package. Otherwise the Perl environment will be corrupted.
Updating from Version 4.x¶
The update process from version 4.x to 4.7.0 divides into three parts.
- Preparing the New Directory Structure
- Updating SEAL APW Service
- Cleaning up the Old Directory Structure
Preparing the New Directory Structure¶
-
Open a PowerShell (Administrator) and stop SEAL APW Service:
stop-service apw-rest
-
Copy the following directories to the new locations:
robocopy "%ProgramData%\SEAL Systems\plossys\config" "%ProgramData%\SEAL Systems\config" * /e /b /copyall /fp /ns /nc /np /nfl /ndl
robocopy "%ProgramData%\SEAL Systems\plossys\data" "%ProgramData%\SEAL Systems\data" * /e /b /copyall /fp /ns /nc /np /nfl /ndl
Caution - access rights
Do not copy the directories via Windows Explorer. Use the
robocopy
command in the PowerShell (Administrator) instead, in order to retain the necessary access rights. -
Save the
mongod.conf
configuration file:rename "%ProgramData%\SEAL Systems\config\mongod.conf" mongod.conf.bak 2>NUL
