Upgrading NEOSYS: important pointers

If you have the time, backup the entire NEOSYS folder or

To backup just the programs copy Neosys\Neosys, Neosys.net, Neosys.mac

To backup the data copy DATA

Run http://www.neosys.com/support/adagency.exe

The installation procedure first creates a GLOBAL.END file in the NEOSYS programs folder causing all serving processes to terminate. Maintenance processes must be terminated manually.

Next, the installation procedure attempts to update the WAITING.EXE file and, if the processes haven’t terminated quickly enough, this will fail asking for retry or abort. Retry immediately or once all the processes have terminated.

The last step of the installation procedure is to delete the GLOBAL.END file to allow processes to start normally. If you choose to abort the installation for any reason then the GLOBAL.END file will have to be deleted manually since its presence prevents any processes from starting up.
