Installing this Service Pack

Windows Installation Notes:

It is important to keep all versions of ArcGIS products installed on the same machine in sync to avoid any software conflicts.

To find out what products are currently installed on your machine, download the ServicePackFinder92.exe utility and run it from your local machine. This utility provides a report detailing which ArcGIS products are currently installed on your machine. This will help determine which product Service Packs you should install on your machine. The report also details which service packs have been installed. The report is displayed when the utility is run and a servicepack.txt log file is created in your temp folder. The Service Pack Finder utility searches for the following ArcGIS products.

  • ArcGIS ArcReader
  • ArcGIS Desktop (ArcView, ArcEditor, ArcInfo) Includes the ArcReader fixes for the ArcReader FEATURE.
  • ArcGIS Desktop Developer Kit for the Microsoft .NET Framework, VB6, VBA and Visual C++
  • ArcGIS Engine Developer Kit for C++, the Java Platform, the Microsoft .NET Framework, VB6 and Visual C++
  • ArcGIS Engine Runtime
  • ArcGIS Server for the Microsoft .NET Framework
  • ArcGIS Server for the Java Platform
  • ArcGIS Server Web ADF Runtime for the Microsoft .NET Framework
  • ArcIMS
  • ArcIMS Web ADF for the Microsoft .NET Framework
  • ArcIMS Web ADF for the Java Platform
  • ArcSDE

NOTE (ArcSDE and ArcGIS Desktop users): If you use ArcSDE 9.2 or ArcGIS Desktop 9.2, you must also install ArcSDE 9.2 Service Pack 2 or ArcGIS 9.2 Service Pack 2. For example, if you use ArcIMS 9.2 and ArcSDE 9.2, install both ArcIMS 9.2 Service Pack 2 and ArcSDE 9.2 Service Pack 2. Since ArcIMS 9.2, ArcSDE 9.2 and the ArcGIS 9.2 products share common DLLs, it is important to keep the software release versions in sync to avoid any software conflicts.

UNIX/Linux Installation Notes

It is important to keep the all versions of ArcGIS products installed on a machine in sync to avoid any software conflicts.

To find out what ArcGIS products are currently installed on your machine, download and extract the PatchFinder.tar and run PatchFinder utility from your local machine. This utility provides a report detailing which ArcGIS products and which servicepacks have been installed. The PatchFinder utility searches for thefollowing ArcGIS products.

  • ArcGIS ArcReader
  • ArcGIS Engine Developer Kit for C++
  • ArcGIS Engine Developer Kit for the Java Platform
  • ArcGIS Engine Runtime
  • ArcGIS Server for the Java Platform
  • ArcIMS
  • ArcIMS Web ADF for the Java Platform
  • ArcInfo Workstation
  • ArcSDE

Extract the tar file by typing:

% tar xvf PatchFinder.tar

Run the utility by typing:

% ./PatchFinder

NOTE (ArcSDE and ArcGIS Desktop users): If you use ArcSDE 9.2 or ArcGIS Desktop 9.2, you must also install ArcSDE 9.2 Service Pack 2 or ArcGIS 9.2 Service Pack 2. For example, if you use ArcIMS 9.2 and ArcSDE 9.2, install both ArcIMS 9.2 Service Pack 2 and ArcSDE 9.2 Service Pack 2. Since ArcIMS 9.2, ArcSDE 9.2 and the ArcGIS 9.2 products share common DLLs, it is important to keep the software release versions in sync to avoid any software conflicts.

Installation Steps for ArcIMS on Windows

ArcIMS 9.2 must be installed before you can install this Service Pack. This Service Pack is cumulative and contains all fixes from the previous patches. If you already have a previous patch installed, you may apply this Service Pack over it to update the required files.

  1. Download ArcIMS92sp2.msp  (59 MB)
  2. From your Services control panel, stop the ArcIMS Tasker, ArcIMS Monitor, and ArcIMS Application Server (in that order).
  3. Double-click the ArcIMS92sp2.msp to start the install process. This executable will take some time to examine your current ArcIMS install during the initializing stage. If double clicking the MSP file does not start the Service Pack installation, you can run the Service Pack manually by using the following command:
    msiexec.exe /p [location of service pack]\ArcIMS92sp2.msp
  4. When Setup starts, follow the instructions on your screen.
  5. After the Setup has finished, stop the Web Server and Servlet Engine and then run the ArcIMS Post Installation. The post installation setup can be run from Start > Programs > ArcGIS > ArcIMS > ArcIMS Post Installation.
    If you have customized directories or files, please cut and paste them to a back-up location prior to running the Post Install. Remember to replace any customized files after running the post-install with the backed-up/original files.
  6. In the Post Install, choose the Custom Install option
  7. Check the box for ArcIMS Configuration
  8. Check the box for Web Server – Servlet Engine Configuration
  9. Check the box for ArcIMS JRE Configuration for Manager.
    In the ArcIMS JRE Configuration dialog no changes are necessary, simply keep the defaults and click Next.
  10. Uncheck all other options.
  11. Follow the prompts as explained in the ArcIMS Installation Guide and finish the Post Installation.
  12. Note: You will need to follow the uninstallation procedure found the in ArcIMS Install guide to remove deployed ESRI war files from your web-server/servlet engine before re-deployment. If your Web Server is not available as a selection in the Post Installation, please follow the manual instructions found in the ArcIMS Installation Guide to re-configure your web-server/servlet engine and to re-deploy ESRI war files. The war files that have been updated are listed below:

    • TOMCAT USERS ONLY: Stop the Tomcat processes, then navigate to <Tomcat Installation Directory>\webapps. If any of the following directories and files exist, please move them to a backup location prior to running the Post Install and Web Configuration. These must be removed from the webapps directory. Remember to replace any customized files after running the post-install with the backed-up/original files.

    • \aimscsw
    • \aimscsw.war
    • \wfsconnector
    • \wfsconnector.war
    • \wmsconnector
    • \wmsconnector.war

  13. The post install will start the ArcIMS Application Server, ArcIMS Monitor and ArcIMS Tasker services. You may need to restart any additional ArcIMS services that may have been stopped for the install.
