Related Batch Processes
These separately-run programs update system information.
Home Locator changes the folder for the Spooler-specific files (indicated by "fthome") and is normally changed to a separate drive as archive information becomes more extensive than originally planned.
Settings Merger updates system files in response to a file sent from FormTrap Support and Sales. This is normally number of printers upgrades, but may include the client name where the client advises a change in ownership.
Version Upgrade is run when updating to differently numbered version of FormTrap Spooler (eg v6 to v7).
Home Locator
Home Locator changes the address of the Spooler files and FireBird DB.
Before running Home Locator, please do the following:
- (optionally) run Setup, Archive, Backup and Restore to compress the DB back to the current record limit.
- From Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services, stop FormTrap Server and FireBird (in that order).
- Copy the folder C:\fthome\v7 to its required new location.
Home Locator is contained in the FormTrap, Spooler program group:
This window opens, showing the address of the current "fthome" folder. Select Change home directory... and select the new "fthome" folder.
Restart FireBird and FormTrap Server (in that order).
