If I am updating to a newer reQuest version, do I need to worry about overwriting any existing settings?
– reQuest’s data files reside in “C:\Data\Static\DLL_Data\VDS\ReQuest”. – When you update reQuest, your license file (“lservrc”) should be left in tact. – Your “qXMLNet.reg” may get overwritten when you update, so you may need to re-edit this file (using Notepad) to enter your server name, and then save the file and double click on it to register it. Please refer to the section on Installation in “reQuest_UserGuide.pdf” for details. – Also, if you are using FTP, your “FTPSettings.txt” file may get overwritten when you update. You may need to re-edit this file to edit your FTP settings. Please refer to the section “FTP Setup for Legacy Quantel Systems” in “reQuest_UserGuide.pdf” for details. – An alternative to re-editing is to just backup the above two files prior to updating and then restore them after updating. For example, copy “qXMLNet.reg” and “FTPSettings.txt” to “C:\Temp”, update reQuest, and then copy the two files back to “C:\Data\Static\DLL_Data\VDS\ReQuest”.
