[edit] ReachPlus Alerts Server

Updating your current installation of ReachPlus Alerts Server with the latest version from the website or the in-place upgrade should not be a problem. The install would automatically update the application files and use existing license and data files.

If you want to upgrade your existing installation of ReachPlus Alerts please follow the following steps for the upgrade:

  • Backup the folders (AlertSData, AlertsLog, License, and RPSData) in the ReachPlus Alerts install folder which is typically "C:\Program Files\tekAlign\ReachPlus Alerts Server".
  • Install the latest version of the ReachPlus Alerts Server available on the website to the same folder where it was previously installed (setup would automatically select the last installation folder by default).

[edit] ReachPlus Alerts Client

One of the significant changes in ReachPlus Alerts Client version 4.1 is the use of Windows Installer (MSI) for the installation package. Previous versions of the client used InstallShield for the installation package. Upgrading version 4.0 clients to version 4.1 or later requires that the existing clients should be uninstalled first before the roll-out.
