Title: CA 11.1.7 Upgrade
Post by: adam_mc on 17 Dec 2020 09:09:33 AM
In the download for the install of CA 11.1.7. I appear to have two server zip files which one should I use (I am upgrading from CA 11.0.13)?

ca_srv_win64_11.1.7.zip
casrv-11.1.7-2010071735-winx64h.zip

I am hopeful that one of them is a later fix pack.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Adam

Thanks for not providing enough details.  I needed to reacquaint myself with the Fix Central site. :P

Those files came from different sites:
ca_srv_win64_11.1.7.zip is the content for installing CA 11.1.7.  This came from Passport Advantage Online.
casrv-11.1.7-2010071735-winx64h.zip is the content for installing CA 11.1.7 Fix Pack 1.  This came from Fix Central.

You don't want the original 11.1.7.  https://www.cognoise.com/index.php/topic,36855.msg121299.html#msg121299

If you're using CMS, you may not want Fix Pack 1.  You need to authenticate to get the WSDL (which tells you how to authenticate).  Other than that, I found this to be a good product.

You may want Fix Pack 2.  (casrv-11.1.7-2012081900-winx64h.zip)  I haven't tried this one yet.

My bad...

casrv-11.1.7-2009031303-winx64h.zip is what I used.  It's Interim Fix 2.  It's the one with CMS problems.  I didn't try FP1.
