Welcome! Now the contentACCESS installation wizard will open and it will lead you through all the steps of the deploying process. All components of contentACCESS can be deployed during this deployment process. Click Installation on the Welcome page.

Please note that updating to the latest contentACCESS versions is not possible from versions older than 5.0. Before performing the update, you must upgrade the older version to at least version 5.0.

warning

Important: Update is supported from contentACCESS version 3.1 and later. Older versions must be updated to contentACCESS 3.1 and then from version 3.1 to the latest version.
If the update is done from an earlier version than 3.3, then some new features must be configured manually after the update.
One of these features is the Task runner, which requires a resource storage, where the export files will be stored. This storage must be configured in System -> System -> Resource storage settings. This store must be accessible by all contentACCESS nodes inside a cluster, so it is highly recommended to use a network share.
If the update is done from an earlier version than 3.4, then as a result of some internal changes in the email archive shortcut format, the Outlook forms must be updated to the latest version to maintain the correct functionality.
