COINSAdmin auto patch script
The adminautopatch script in $ADMIN/bin is used to connect to the central server to download and install a new patch of COINSAdmin, if there is one available. If there is no newer patch, “No new version available” is displayed. A patch update is of the same version, with a letter increment. For example, v12.03A to v12.03B.
The adminautopatch script is created by the Generate Admin Scripts. It can be run from $ADMIN with bin/adminautopatch and can be run from a cronjob.
If the script encounters any errors these will be logged to $ADMIN/tmp/YYYYMMDD-HHMMSSadminpatch.log file and COINSAdmin will not be updated.
The script will backup the current version to the COINSAdmin backup directory. If the backup directory is not set, the script will backup to $ADMIN/backup by default.
Rollback COINSAdmin patch update
The Rollback COINSAdmin Patch Update menu option in the Configure COINSAdmin > COINSAdmin Maintenance screen allows you to roll back to the previously backed up COINSAdmin patch version. Backups are read from the COINSAdmin backup directory.
