Laserfiche Deployment Toolkit 1.0.5

Summary

This article details the changes for the Laserfiche Deployment Toolkit 1.0.5, supporting Laserfiche 10.4.2 to 11. This update adds Quick Fields Server as a supported application and includes bugfixes for Deployment Toolkit v1.0.4 (see KB:1014271)

  • Quick Fields Server 11 is now supported.
    • Note: Quick Fields client-side applications, such as Quick Fields or Quick Fields Scanning, are not included.
  • Workflow 11 fix: the deployment toolkit now uses the correct install path (311559).
  • Laserfiche Server fix: added missing shared file. Repositories can now successfully be created when Laserfiche Server is installed without other Laserfiche applications (310019).
  • Automatically install Laserfiche Full-text Search (LFFTS) on machines with the Laserfiche Server so that repository creation can complete successfully (309263).
  • Improved support for sites licensed for Enterprise Forms Portal. Forms portal will now always be included, as when manually installing (276222).
  • Checks for appropriate PowerShell version. PowerShell version 6+ is not currently supported: the toolkit must be run with version 5.x (312730).

Known Issues

  • You will get "Cannot find file "Win_809590_mini_installer.exe" in $InstallPackagePath\en\Support " error when run the Deployment Toolkit when install Forms 11 Update 2.
    • The workaround is to replace "809590_mini_installer" with "929512_mini_installer" in the items of "Forms Professional-11.0.0" and "Forms Essentials-11.0.0" in the catalog.json under the SpinUpScripts folder
