Upgrading the Schedule Prerequisite Files

Prior to upgrading the Key2Act Service Library and application, the Schedule installation requires directories and files to be placed on your server.

    You may be prompted to download and install a required .NET Core 2.2 update found at https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/thank-you/dotnet-runtime-2.2.0-windows-hosting-bundle-installer. After installing the .NET Core update, you will need to manually open the Schedule Web Installer by going to Start > Signature > Schedule Web Installer to continue with the installation process.

Upgrading the Schedule Web Service and Application

  4. Choose Login to display the company/companies and then choose the Company for this Upgrade. This option lets you upgrade multiple companies during one upgrade. If you later have a need to upgrade the Schedule Web Service for more companies, see Install the Schedule Web Service for Additional Companies.
