Environment:

  • Uniprint 8.3

  • Uniprint 8.4

  • Uniprint 9.0

  • Uniprint 9.0 R2


Resolution

  1. Make a backup copy of the SRS program files directory.
        In Windows Server 32-bit, the default location is
            C:\Program Files\Pharos\SecureRelease
    In Windows Server 64-bit, the default location is
            C:\Program Files (x86)\Pharos\SecureRelease

  2. Make a backup copy of the SRS data directory (JobStore).
        In Windows Server 2003, the default location is
            C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\PharosSystems\SecureRelease
        In Windows Server 2008 and 2012, the default location is
            C:\ProgramData\PharosSystems\SecureRelease

  3. Stop the Windows Service named Pharos Systems Secure Release Service

  4. Locate PharosSecureRelease.msi in the Pharos "bin" directory.
        In Windows Server 32-bit, the default location is
            C:\Program Files\Pharos\bin
        In Windows Server 64-bit, the default location is
            C:\Program Files (x86)\Pharos\bin

  5. Right-click on PharosSecureRelease.msi, then choose Uninstall

  6. Open a Windows Command Prompt (as Administrator)

  7. At the first prompt, change your working directory to the Pharos "bin" directory (located in step 4 above).
        In Windows Server 32-bit, type:
            cd C:\Program Files\Pharos\bin
        In Windows Server 64-bit, type:
            cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Pharos\bin

  8. At the next prompt, type the following command, replacing the parameters as explained below.
    msiexec.exe /i PharosSecureRelease.msi PHAROSSYSTEMS_PROGRAMFILES="C:\Program Files (x86)\Pharos" PHAROSSYSTEMS_APPDATA="C:\ProgramData\PharosSystems" SITE_CODE="MY_PHAROS_SITE_CODE"
    Note: PHAROSSYSTEMS_PROGRAMFILES, PHAROSSYSTEMS_APPDATA, and SITE_CODE are case-sensitive and must be uppercase.
        Replace "C:\Program Files (x86)\Pharos" with the location where you want to install the SRS program files.  The installer will create the directory "SecureRelease" automatically.
        In Windows Server 32-bit, the default location is
            C:\Program Files\Pharos
        In Windows Server 64-bit, the default location is
            C:\Program Files (x86)\Pharos
        Replace "C:\ProgramData\PharosSystems" with the location where you want to install the SRS data (JobStore).  The installer will create the directory "SecureRelease" automatically.
        In Windows Server 2003, the default location is
            C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\PharosSystems
        In Windows Server 2008 and 2012, the default location is
            C:\ProgramData\PharosSystems
    Replace "MY_PHAROS_SITE_CODE" with the customer site code tied to your Pharos license

  9. Restart the Windows Service named Pharos Systems Secure Release Service

  10. Complete
