Patchfinder for Linux

HildegardGerlach1 — Wed, 01 Jul 2015 10:15:12 GMT

Hi,

I upgraded ArcGIS for Server and WebAdaptor on a Linux machine to 10.3.1. I downloaded the latest Patchfinder I can find, e.g. here

ArcGIS 10.3.1 for Server (Linux) WMS GetCapabilities Patch | Samples and Utilities

at the bottom of the page.

Running PatchFinder does not show the releases installed. It seems that it is still an old version.

Is there a newer version around ?

Hilde

Thanks for your help, but it seems to be the same file as from the link I got it (same size).

The result of running PatchFinder is:

./PatchFinder

Are you running the script as the same user who installed ArcGIS Server? The script seems to be checking the $HOME/ESRI.properties.... file, so it will not find any products installed by any other user.

Also, the script does not seem to have been updated for version 10.3.1, so it may just list the installed products as 10.3, or it may not list them at all.

Yes, I am running the PatchFinder as the same user who installed ArcGIS Server. Indeed, I had a look at the script now, you are right, it is not updated for 10.3.1.

So adding

if [ -f "$HOME/.ESRI.properties.`uname -n`.10.3.1" ]

then

ProductSetupFile="$HOME/.ESRI.properties.`uname -n`.10.3.1"

elif [ -f "$HOME/.ESRI.properties.`uname -n`.10.3" ]

.......

resolves the problem. Didn't know it was so easy to update it myself.

Thanks
