Update

This article describes the steps required to update EntraCP in your SharePoint farm.

Download the required assets#

Browse to the latest release and download the assets assembly-bindings.config and EntraCP.wsp.

Update the assembly bindings#

Complete the steps below on all the SharePoint servers:

1. Browse to the latest release and download the assets assembly-bindings.config and EntraCP.wsp.
2. Open the machine.config file (%systemroot%\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\Config\Machine.config) and locate the XML node <runtime>.
3. If needed, update the machine.config to reflect the changes in assembly-bindings.config.

Update the solution#

Complete the steps below on the server running the central administration:

1. On the server running the central administration, start a new SharePoint management shell and run this command:

   # This will start a timer job that will deploy the update on SharePoint servers. Central administration will restart during the process
   Update-SPSolution -GACDeployment -Identity "EntraCP.wsp" -LiteralPath "C:\YvanData\EntraCP.wsp"

2. Visit central administration > System Settings > Manage farm solutions: Wait until solution status shows “Deployed”.

   Important

   Be patient, cmdlet Update-SPSolution triggers a one-time timer job on the SharePoint servers and this may take a minute or 2.

   If status shows “Error”, restart the SharePoint timer service on the servers where the depployment failed, start a new PowerShell process and run Update-SPSolution again.

Finalize the installation#

On each SharePoint server, restart the IIS and the SharePoint timer services:

Restart-Service -Name @("W3SVC", "SPTimerV4")
