Portal for ArcGIS Application Display Patch

Esri announces the Portal for ArcGIS Application Display Patch. This patch addresses a display issue affecting the Home Application, Map Viewer, Solutions, and Instant Apps once the browser is updated to Chrome 127 or Edge 127. Esri strongly advises that all customers using ArcGIS Enterprise 11.2, 11.1, 10.9.1, and 10.8.1 apply this patch. Before installing this patch on ArcGIS Enterprise 11.1, 10.9.1, and 10.8.1 on Windows, first run the Portal for ArcGIS Validation and Repair tool to validate that your ArcGIS Enterprise Windows deployment is ready to have Portal for ArcGIS patches applied. This patch deals specifically with the issues listed below under Issues Addressed with this Patch.

As a best practice, clear the browser cache and re-launch the browser after installing the patch. A "no portal machine found" error page may appear in Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge if the browser cache is not cleared.

This patch can be uninstalled as outlined in the Uninstalling this patch on Windows and Uninstalling this patch on Linux sections below. Additionally, Esri recommends developing a rollback plan before installing patches. This may be taking a snapshot of machines and related file servers or using the WebGIS DR tool as a software backup. See Back up and restore best practices for more information. For those utilizing a highly available environment, refer to the help topic on how to apply patches in a highly available environment for guidance.

On Windows, the release date order of the patches does not matter when installing multiple patches. If an older patch is installed after a newer patch, the newer patch takes precedence and the fixes from the newer patch will remain. The ArcGIS Enterprise Patch Notification tool, when the option to install all available patches is activated, installs multiple patches in order of release date starting with oldest to newest.

The ArcGIS product listed in the table must be installed on your system before you can install a patch. Each patch setup is specific to the ArcGIS product in the list. To determine which products are installed on your system, please see the How to identify which ArcGIS products are installed section. Esri recommends that you install the patch for each product that is on your system.

Step 1: Download the appropriate file to a location other than your ArcGIS installation location.

Step 2: Make sure you have write access to your ArcGIS installation location.

Step 3: Double-click ArcGIS-<Version>-PFA-AD-Patch.mspto start the setup process.

NOTE: If double clicking on the msp file does not start the setup installation, you can start the setup installation manually by using the following command:

Step 4: As a best practice, clear the browser cache and re-launch the browser after installing the patch.

On Linux, the release date order of the patches matters when installing multiple patches. If an older patch is installed after a newer patch, the older patch will replace the newer patch and the fixes in the newer patch will be removed. The ArcGIS Enterprise Patch Notification tool, when the option to install all available patches is activated, installs multiple patches in order of release date starting with oldest to newest.

Complete the following install steps as the ArcGIS Install owner. The Install owner is the owner of the arcgis folder.

To remove this patch on versions 10.7 and higher, navigate to the <Product Installation Directory>/.Setup/qfe directory and run the following script as the ArcGIS Install owner:

The removepatch.sh script allows you to uninstall previously installed patches or hot fixes. Use the -s status flag to get the list of installed patches or hot fixes ordered by date. Use the -q flag to remove patches or hot fixes in reverse chronological order by date they were installed. Type removepatch -h for usage help.

Restart your ArcGIS services.
