================================================================= NOVELL GROUPWISE 4.1A UPDATE PATCH 2 ================================================================= This patch is intended for Novell GroupWise 4.1a for Windows that has already had Update Patch #1 applied to it. This patch cannot be used with any other version of GroupWise. This patch addresses issues with running under Windows 95 and some commonly reported problems. -------------------------------- Instructions -------------------------------- The patch consists of the following files: GWUSC2.TXT (this file) GWPAT2.EXE Copy these files to a workstation or network directory. You will need at least 15M of free space on the drive for use as workspace for the patch utilities. It will be freed when the patch is complete. You will need network WRITE and DELETE access rights to the directory containing the primary domain to be patched. You should backup the domain to be updated before applying the patch. If the patch is interrupted you will then be able to restore the domain from the backup and start again. If you don't backup the domain you may have to reinstall the original 4.1a version and re-apply patch #1 before attempting to apply patch #2. The patch process may take from 15 to 30 minutes depending on the speed of your machine, the speed of your disk and the speed of your network. To apply the patch: 1 Set your current working directory to the directory containing the patch files listed above. 2 At the DOS prompt type: GWPAT2 This file is a self extracting EXE that extracts the following files: PATCH.EXE SPAN.EXE SPANX.EXE SQP.EXE KDEL.EXE FIXDATE2.EXE DOPATCH.BAT DOSPNSET.BAT OFWIN41.BAT WNUSID41.BAT GWUSC2.RTP OFWIN41.RTP WNUSID41.RTP 3 At the DOS prompt, enter the following command: DOPATCH primarydomain where primarydomain is the drive and directory of a primary domain. For example, if the primary domain is J:\HEADQ, you would enter the following command: DOPATCH J:\HEADQ 4 After applying the patch, distribute the updated software in the normal way: a. Using the AD.EXE Software Management option (under the Tools menu), copy the updated software to other domains and/or post offices. b. After copying the software to a post office, go into Windows and run SETUPWIN /A. -------------------------------- Troubleshooting -------------------------------- If PATCH.EXE cannot locate the correct files to patch, the following message will be displayed: Warning wpt0015: Old File does not exist This may indicate one or more of the following situations: * You have previously deleted one or more files from the original GroupWise 4.1a installation. * You are attempting to patch the wrong version of GroupWise. You may need to reinstall the original GroupWise 4.1a files and apply Update Patch #1 before applying this patch. If PATCH.EXE determines that a file does not need to be patched, it will report the following message: New Version of File FILENAME already exists. This may indicate that you have already applied the patch. PATCH.EXE has verified that your software is up-to-date; you do not need to take further action. -------------------------------- Files Modified -------------------------------- In the WPOFFICE\OFWIN40 directory: README.WIN SETUP.DAT SETUPUS.EXE OFUS0024.VER (added) WPOF0024.VER (added) In the WPOFFICE\OFWIN40\SETUP directory (containing compressed span set files): OFWIN41.(S01,S02,S03,S04,SPN) WNUSID41.(S01,S02,S03,S04,SPN) Within the span sets, the following GroupWise files have been modified: OFWIN.EXE OFWINFIL.EXE OFWINENG.DLL VEWIN.EXE VEWINFIL.EXE NTWIN.EXE MAPI.DLL WPROF.DC WPOFUS.DLL WPOFUSM.HLP WPVEUS.DLL README.WIN UPGRDEGW.WCM (new) The following shared code files have been modified: SHX20US.DLL SHWIN20.DLL SHWINB20.DLL SHWINX20.DLL SPWIN20.EXE OFCH41.DLL OFENUS.DLL GWUE41US.DLL (new)
