Steps Required Following an Upgrade
When you upgrade Geo SCADA Expert, the installer will include a new set of Python Package files. To take advantage of any additional functionality that the files support, you should replace the existing Python Package files with the new files. To do this:
On each server that has just been upgraded on your system (with the exception of permanent standby servers), you need to:
-
Open a Command Prompt window in Microsoft® Windows®. (To do this, you can select the Start button, followed by the All Programs option, then select the Accessories option, followed by the Command Prompt option.)
-
Use the change directory command (
cd) to go to the location of the Python executable that the Geo SCADA Expert server uses to execute the Python programs. (This is the path that is specified in the Python section of the Server Configuration Tool (see Define the Location of the Python Executable).)(If the path is included in the machine's PATH System environment variable, you should not need to use this command.)
-
Enter the following command to install the new Python Package files in place of the existing files. Ensure that you paste the command across as a single line into the Command Prompt window.
python -m pip install --force-reinstall --no-index --find-links="C:\Program Files\Schneider Electric\ClearSCADA\PythonPackages" geoscada-client
(Where the path in the command specifies the location at which the installer has placed the new Python Package files. If the files have been placed at a different location to the default shown above, specify that location in the command instead.)
-
Press the Enter key.
The new Python Package files are installed at the same location as the Python executable.The names of the files include the build version of Geo SCADA Expert. This should match version of Geo SCADA Expert to which the server has just been upgraded.
-
Repeat the above procedure for other servers that have just been upgraded on your system (other than permanent standby servers).
