9.1.5. Upgrading Proxy Server

Upgrading Proxy Server for Windows OS

Automatic update of Proxy server is not supported.

When you run the installer on a PC with installed Proxy server:

If the installer has the same bit depth as an installed Proxy server, notification about impossibility of installation is shown.

If the bit depth of installer differs from bit depth of installed Proxy server, the Proxy server is installed in the folder different from the folder of installed version.

 

Installation of two Proxy servers on the same PC and configuring them to operate via the same port leads to inoperability of both Proxy servers.

 

To upgrade Proxy server:

1.If on a computer with installed Proxy server, the Agent with enabled self-protection is installed, disable the Dr.Web SelfPROtect component via the Agent settings.

2.Uninstall the Proxy server according to the standard procedure (see Removing Proxy Server).

 

During Proxy server uninstallation, the drwcsd-proxy.xml configuration file is deleted. If necessary, save configuration file manually before Proxy server uninstallation.

 

3.Install a new version of Proxy server according to the standard procedure (see Installing Proxy Server).

4.If necessary, replace configuration file with manually saved one from the previous version.

5.If you disabled the Dr.Web SelfPROtect component at step 1, enable it via the Agent settings.
