FM10.0.1 patch available

[Arnis_Gubins]

FWIW, there are update patches available for FM10 and FM10 Server. They are available via the update manager or can be downloaded directly from the FM update page at:

http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=22&platform=Windows

Note: 1. The installer complains and stalls if you have java.exe running (perhaps some background app or service is using it in your installation).

2. My installation failed with a very helpful screen message:

3. The contents of the Readme files (PDF) are available here:

FM10 Server: http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/framemaker/win/10.x/Adobe_FrameMaker_Server_10_0_1_Readme.pdf

I especially like point #3 about TCS !!

Jeff,

Don't hold your breath for this though. TechComm product cycles are about 2 years and TCS 3 came out in January.

@all,

Anybody else have any issues installing this patch?

[Jeff_Coatsworth]

I just liked the typo!

I had one co-worker who ran it & it complained that "charactermap.exe" was still running (which we found no evidence of when we looked at killing the task/service), but it ended up going through after hitting "Continue" often enough.

No issues updating about 15 minutes ago!

What OS? I'm using Win7 64-bit Ultimate.

I especially like point #3 about TCS !!

Mentioning TCS "4" did seem a bit incautious.

I would't rule out that it's just a typo.

It's not immediately obvious what a TCS4 might include.

The only component of TCS 3 that has rolled lately appears

to be Photoshop, to 5.5. I would expect a TCS track of that to

be called TCS 3.5.

What component(s) triggered the previous full-digit rolls of TCS?

Same error message here, I could not update neither with TCS updater nor with the separate FM patch.

Finally got it installed (v.10.0.1.042 when patched).

I had already manually updated the BookComponentMIFWash.dll file (as per the discussions here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3681150#3681150 ) and renamed the old one. The installer couldn't find the correct .dll and aborted the entire process.

For more detailed information on what transpired during the patching process look in:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Installers

and then examine the "Adobe FrameMaker 10 10.0.1 <date>.log.gz" file. (It's a gzip of the aactual log file). You might get a clue as to what the actual stumbing block was.
