Updating stand-alone Workflow Messenger installations
If Workflow Messenger were installed stand alone, with no other Workflow components
installed, the Update Client cannot find the Messenger component and thus it will not
automatically update the component to the Workflow 8.6.1 version of Messenger. To get around
this, download and run the Workflow 8.6.1 installer manually.
Templates Used in Workflow
For improved performance we recommend re-saving Workflow templates set up in the previous
versions to run with PlanetPress Connect1.6.1\Workflow 8.6.1.
Updating Connect 1.5 installations using Microsoft SQLīServer as back-end
If a Microsoft Server and MySQL were installed with Connect 1.5, and the Server Configuration
Tool used to switch the back-end database to Microsoft SQL, then an extra step is required in
the Update to Connect 1.6.1. The procedure is documented in the installation guide.
Print Only Version
A Print Only license is available with version 1.6.1 of PlanetPress Connect which allows legacy
PlanetPress Suite 7 customers on OL Care to upgrade to Connect for a minimal fee. The
license allows regular printing via the Print Wizard but runs Email and Web output in demo
mode. For more information, please contact your local OL Customer Care or Sales team.
Reduced Memory Version
Note
This is not recommended for production.
It is now possible to install PlanetPress Connect on a machine with a minimum of 2 GB of
RAM. The PlanetPress Connect Designer will automatically detect whether it has been
installed on a machine with less than 4 GB of RAM and default to only using one internal
Weaver and one internal merge engine on that system. The Server will also run using internal
engines.
