How to upgrade Xeams to the latest version

Using the latest version of Xeams is very important. The latest version gives you the most up-to-date features and often addresses important security vulnerabilities. Using an older version leaves you open to attacks from malicious users. Refer to the change log to get a detailed version history.

Auto Update

When the auto-update feature is enabled, Xeams running in your environment will automatically download necessary files. Once the files are downloaded, you will receive an email to the address specified for the administrator. You must restart Xeams after receiving this notification.

Visit Server Configuration, select the Advanced tab, and check Enable Auto-Update to enable this feature.

Updating from the web interface

When auto-update is disabled, you must update Xeams manually. Click Home > Server Options > Check for Updates to manually update Xeams.

Firewalls

Often, firewalls prevent Xeams from downloading the binaries from Synametrics' website. In such cases, you must download the files manually as described on this page.
