6.3 First Time Setup |
|
6.3.1 After downloading Latitude installer zip files from the Latitude website, unzip the Latitude installer into the Latitude directory (typically C:\Lati99) on the administrator's PC.
6.3.2 Run the Latitude installer, follow the guide and attach your Latitude data file using network mapping for the Server drive. This means that if you are using a regular client PC as the server machine, the Latitude data file may physically reside on C:\ while from other computers it is mapped as J:\. In that case create & use a locally mapped J:\ to attach the Latitude data file.
6.3.3 Upgrade the Latitude data file when prompted.
6.3.4 Set ADF and ADF Path
After the upgrade is completed, In the Latitude Home Screen, click Administration
Select Setup to open the Latitude Setup screen
Click "Options 1" tab
Under the 'Upgrade' group, make sure that "Activate Automatic Deployment Client" is selected
In the ADF Path, enter the path to where the database is located e.g. L:\Latitude
Click Done and Close Latitude.
6.3.5 The Latitude.accde located on C:\Lati99 of the Administrator PC will be automatically copied into the Server directory where the Latitude data file is (ADF Path).
6.3.6 Run the installer on workstations that need to have Latitude and use the same settings for the install folder and map drive. The Automatic Deployment will not work on workstations that have different settings or are not set correctly.
