BlueZone Installation |
Chapter 2 |
This procedure is written specifically for upgrading BlueZone versions 3.2 or earlier. It is important to review the entire BlueZone Upgrade Procedure before proceeding.
Starting with BlueZone version 4.1, BlueZone uses an MSI type installer (InstallShield Wizard), to keep track of all the installed BlueZone files. Since you are upgrading a version of BlueZone 3.2 or earlier, this is the first time that the InstallShield Wizard has had an opportunity to run. This means that for this upgrade only, the InstallShield Wizard will be performing what is essentially a BlueZone installation. In the future, BlueZone upgrades will be under the control of the InstallShield Wizard and therefore will be much easier to perform.
Your current BlueZone scripts, macros, etc., will remain intact and will be fully compatible with the upgraded version of BlueZone.
IMPORTANT!
Please
be aware that starting with version 3.3, BlueZone defaults to Profile
Mode. Prior
to version 3.3, the default mode for BlueZone was Registry
Mode. In
Registry Mode, all your BlueZone session configurations were stored in
the Windows Registry. In
Profile Mode, all your session configurations are stored in configuration
files called Profiles. During
the "upgrade" process, the BlueZone Installation Wizard will
delete the old BlueZone Registry settings.
When the upgrade process is complete, and you launch your upgraded version of BlueZone, you will not have any BlueZone configuration profiles. So it is important that you write down all your host addresses before you upgrade BlueZone so that you can recreate them more easily.
If you are ready to upgrade, continue with the following BlueZone Upgrade Procedure.
Insert the BlueZone CD-ROM into your computer's CD/DVD drive. The Welcome to BlueZone "Splash Screen" will appear.
Click on the BlueZone Desktop link and select BlueZone Desktop. You will be presented with the main BlueZone Installation Language screen.
Select the desired language from the drop down list and press the OK button. You will be presented with the Welcome to the InstallShield Wizard for BlueZone screen.
Click the Next button. You will be presented with the License Agreement screen.
To proceed, select the "I accept the terms in the license agreement" radio button and click the Next button. You will be presented with the Destination Folder screen.
Change the Installation and Working Directories as needed or take the default (recommended) and click the Next button. You will be presented with the Component Selection screen.
Review the default selections.
Use the
scroll bar on the right hand side view all components. By
default, some BlueZone components are selected for installation and some
are not. The
components that have a diskette icon 
will be installed
and the components that have a red X icon 
will not be installed.
With your
mouse pointer, left click the BlueZone components you wish to change.
Also, choose
whether you want BlueZone to be available to all users of just yourself.
NOTE For
a description of a particular component, highlight the component with
your mouse pointer and read the Feature
Description, which will appear on the right hand side of the screen.
Click the Next button. The Choose Activation File screen will be displayed. Since this is an upgrade, you should already have a Software Activation File (SAF) stored on your hard drive in the location where your previous version of BlueZone was installed. If you have not changed the location where the BlueZone files will be installed, you can skip this step.
If you have changed the BlueZone installation location, then use the Browse button to browse to the location where your SAF file installed.
Click the Next button. The Ready to Install the Program screen will be displayed.
Click the Install button. The following message will be displayed:
Please be patient, it's normal for the progress bar not to move for several minutes.
When the installation is complete, a screen stating that the installation has completed successfully will be displayed.
Click the Finish button to exit the Wizard. You will receive a message that your system will require a restart. In order to complete the upgrade process, you must restart your system..
Congratulations! You have just successfully upgraded your version of BlueZone.
