SoftExpert Suite 1.3 update

Considering the major requirement changes incorporated into SoftExpert Suite versions 2.0 and 2.1, compared to version 1.3, we suggest installing version 2.1 on a new server on which version 1.3 was never installed. Such procedure will allow the use of new Tomcat and Java versions, and other requirements automatically installed by the installation process.

However, if the organization wishes to use the same server, version 1.3 must be previously removed, using the 1.3 version removal tool, in addition, the following steps must be executed manually:

1.Open the ISS administration console. To do that, click on the Start menu and type "inetmgr", or access the Administrative tools in the Control panel, and double-click "Internet Information Services".

2.Select the server where version 1.3 was installed and, on the right page, open the FastCGI settings option.

3.Select in the list the PHP used by SoftExpert Suite 1.3 and remove it through the action panel, located on the right side.

4.Go back to the home page, selecting the server where version 1.3 was installed, and, on the right page, open the ISAPI and CGI Restriction option.

5.Select the "seredirect" item and remove it using the action panel located on the right side.

6.Select the server where version 1.3 was installed, select the site created, and remove it. If you wish to use the same site, check, in the SoftExpert Suite installation section, the "Website" configuration, in item 7. Note that the HTTPS port must be set for the SSL configuration.

7.Uninstall Tomcat version 6, because, in SoftExpert Suite version 2.1, Tomcat version 6 is no longer supported. For further details, Refer to the SoftExpert Suite - System requirements document.
