Deployment in an Organization

Updating

Updating the software consists of reinstalling using more recent installers.

1. Log in as an administrator.

2. Download the complete installer (Antidote_12.y_B_n_Windows.exe) from your Organization Client Portal.

3. Ensure that the prerequisites are met.

4. Run the installer Antidote_12.y_B_n_Windows.exe.

5. Select Extract to unzip a folder that contains the installation files and takes the following form: Antidote_12.y_B_n_Installation.

6. Place all of the necessary files on the server (or an accessible drive). See the following example (bilingual installation):

   Antidote12.msi
Antidote12-Module-francais.msi
Antidote12-English-module.msi
Antidote-Connectix12.msi

   In the installation sequence, it is essential that you launch the Antidote12.msi file first. The Antidote 12 application must be installed before the language modules.

7. As an administrator of the workstation, enter all the following installation command lines if they apply to your situation.

   msiexec REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vomus /i "\\server_path\to\Antidote12.msi"
   msiexec REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vomus /i "\\server_path\to\Antidote12-Module-francais.msi"
   msiexec REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vomus /i "\\server_path\to\Antidote12-English-module.msi"
   msiexec REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vomus /i "\\server_path\to\Antidote-Connectix12.msi"

   For silent installation (without dialogs), simply add the /qn switch to each line, for example:

   msiexec /qn REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vomus /i "\\server_path\to\Antidote12.msi"

   See Prerequisites for more details.

   To perform a logged installation, add the /l*v parameter followed by the path of the installation log, for example:

   msiexec /qn REINSTALL=ALL REINSTALLMODE=vomus /i "\\server_path\to\Antidote12.msi" /l*v "\\server_path\to\logMajAntidote.txt"

   For a complete example of an update script, see Example Script for Installing Update.

Integration with newly supported software is completed when Antidote 12 is launched for the first time (from the Start menu) or when each user logs onto the workstation.
