Update to Version 1.3.1 of the RMS Software

If the RMS software is running and a new update is available, follow these guidelines for the installation.

Step 1 Unzip the new version and copy it into a folder with the version number parallel to the currently installed version: "C://inetpub/wwwroot/rms/{version}".
Step 2 Edit connection string in "Connections.config" in folder \wPage and \wService:
The existing settings can be found in "web.config" in folder \wService of the current RMS Installation.
Step 3 Update web.config files, if there are changes under "Appsettings" or "DefaultProxy"
Step 4 Switch wService and wPage application offline by selecting physical path "…/{new version}\Offline". ("Server Manager" > "IIS" > right click on the server and select "Internet Information Server (IIS) manager"). The file "App_Offline.htm" should be located in the directory. Afterwards a maintenance message will be displayed in the browser when RMS is called.
