Upgrading on Windows

Updating Cygwin Binaries

When running the Windows-based Snaplex as a service, performing a service restart causes the Monitor process to start with the old binaries files. 

Note

When upgrading your Snaplex to the 4.29 release (May 2022), you need to reinstall the Snaplex using the 4.29 installer zip file for Windows. Upgrading through Manager will upgrade only the war file, but not the binaries,

To update the service to use the latest binaries, you can choose from one of the two following options:

Option 1: Perform a Complete Reinstallation

  1. Stop the Windows-based Snaplex service.

  2. Remove using bin\jcc.bat remove_service.

  3. Back up the configuration files from \etc folder.

  4. Remove C:\opt\snaplogic.

  5. Reinstall the Windows-based Snaplex using the 4.29 zip file.

Option 2: Install the Latest Cygwin Binaries Only

  1. Unzip the 4.29 zip into a different location.
  2. Copy bin\cygwin1.dll and bin\cygrunsrv.exe from the new zip to the existing installation location.
  3. Update and restart the service using bin\jcc.bat update_service.


Disabling Automatic Update

By default the JCC node will automatically update itself. To disable this, apply the following setting in c:\opt\snaplogic\etc\global.properties:

Code Block
jcc.enable_auto_download = False
