Synopsis

7.07 is a major upgrade. It may be installed to new systems or as an upgrade to 7.06(x) clients. It must be installed using the Windows installer. The files that are needed to install 7.07 can be downloaded from a networked drive (Lawrence House) or directly from this server (see below).

Version 7.07 includes the HHSRS

The server will be upgraded on Sunday 29th January. After this date you must install the 7.07 client to access the production database.

Downloading 7.07

   	
   	1. Exit from CPP/Flare
              This is very important, closing CPP ensures that non
   	   of the files are marked by the Operating System as being "in use".
   
   	2a. Download 7.07 from the CPP/Flare server.
   
   	  This option will work with unauthenticated web access to the CPP
   	  server. It should work for all users but may be slow. Use it if you
   	  do not have access to City Developments shared drives.
   
             A  dialogue box entitled "File Download" should appear.
   	  The File name will be 707cl.exe. Click on the button marked
   	  "Open".
   
   	  The file will download and a dialogue box entitled 
   	  "Extract Civica 707cl will appear. Click on on "Start"
   
   	  The files will be extracted from the archive to 
   	  C:\WINDOWS\Temp and the install program will be run. 
   	   
    	  Now go to  Install 
   
   	or
   	
   	2b. Download 7.07 from networked drive.
           
   	   Only choose this option if you are a Novel user with access to
              //devenv1/apps.
   	   
   
   
           3. A  dialogue box entitled "File Download" should appear.
   	
              There will be a warning that some files can harm your computer, the
              name of the file "setup.exe" and four option buttons. Click on the
              first button, marked "Open".  
   	

Install

    
           4. A series of dialogues will follow. To install a client for the 
   	   live system accept all the defaults by clicking "Next" each time.

   	                               Target Directory
   	                                 FLARE Folder: C:\Flare
   	                                 System Folder: C:\Flare\FSS
   
   
   
   	5. Progress bars will display and the files will be copied to your PC.
   	   When the installation is complete a further dialogue box will
   	   appear with the title "Information". Click on "OK". 
   	
   	   CPP should now start up and prompt you for your login name.

What to do if the above procedure does not work.

The above procedure assumes that;

1. you have sufficient rights to install Flare.
   Most users in Lawrence House will be able to carry out the install with their own login, but at other locations "administrator" privileges may be required.

If you experience problems please contact your local Flare manager or your local IT support.
