If You Are Upgrading An Existing Framework Version¶

1. Before starting the update, backup the config folder from your existing GIS Framework installation. Also backup any custom .xap files you have created from the ClientBin folder

2. Delete the existing contents of your GISFramework installation

3. Extract the contents of the GISFramework_2014_06_5 zip file into the GISFramework folder

4. Copy your config files from your backup into the config folder

5. Copy your custom .xap files from your backup into the ClientBin folder

6. Browse to the site to ensure everything is working as expected

If You Are Installing The Framework For The First Time¶

1. Ensure IIS is installed

2. Setup a new web application in IIS

3. Extract the contents of this zip file into the newly created web application folder

4. Browse to the site to ensure everything is working as expected

Troubleshooting Notes¶

1. If you are having trouble with a local workstation install, try using the default IIS settings available through the Web Platform Installer to return your IIS configuration to a known baseline. DO NOT do this on a production server!

2. If you are running a 64-bit version of windows ensure your application pool settings have the 32-bit applications option enabled.

3. If you are having trouble accessing the content over an SSL (https://) connection ensure the web.config has the ssl enabled endpoints uncommented. See comments in web.config for details.

4. If you receive an error message "Invalid Application configuration entered", be sure that you have edited the virtualapplications section of the web.config to match your local configuration. For further support during an installation contact CO-EntGis-Dev
