Installation
The CDM client is a 64-bit application. This version can be deployed in the following ways:
Server
- As a stand-alone fresh installation.
- As a stand-alone installation by selecting Use existing databases or Empty databases if you already have CDM database(s) from previous versions and a known encryption key. If you do not remember your encryption key, it can be obtained using the Get Encryption Key utility provided with this release being run on the previous version of CDM prior to uninstalling it. Now you can also use a previously exported key by directly selecting it in the installer instead of typing it down.
- As an upgrade from 20.3.1 or later.
- Customers using XBRL or Inline XBRL must deploy the XBRL Dependencies on the same box with the CDM Server which is provided alongside the CDM installers.
- This build uses XBRL Dependencies version 21.2.1.
Client
- As a stand-alone fresh installation.
- As an update over previous versions of the Certent CDM Client.
- Supports multiple client instances on the same box.
ClickOnce
- As a stand-alone fresh installation.
- As an update over previous versions of the Certent CDM publishing server.
- Due to the change from 32-bit to 64-bit of the Certent CDM Client, previously installed client via ClickOnce will not be automatically upgraded upon start up. The client must be removed and redeployed when upgraded from a version earlier than 20.3.2.
- Remove Certent CDM from Programs and Features.
- Access the publishing server URL.
- Click the Install button.
