Cumulative Update for WebOffice 10.9 R3

Build time: 20250314-1851

• This is an add-on patch for WebOffice 10.9 R3. That means, WebOffice 10.9 R3 is a minimum requirement and must be installed! This patch contains all fixes since WebOffice 10.9 R3!
• Please inform your users to delete the browser cache according our guideline, before opening WebOffice the first time after applying an upgrade.

Requirements:

• Installation of VertiGIS WebOffice 10.9 R3 (min. build time: 20230403-0941)

• Installation of VertiGIS WebOffice author standalone 10.9 R3 - min. Build 109.3.0.18

• Installation of VertiGIS WebOffice extensions 10.9 R3 - Build 10.9.292

• Optional: Installation of VertiGIS Studio Printing Engine (CIM2) - Build 5.25.0.7 (ArcGIS 10.8.1 - ArcGIS 10.9.1)

  • Important: For WebOffice the build “v2” is normally required, which is based on the Cartographic Information Model (CIM) v.2 and can be used with ArcGIS Pro 2.x and ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8.x and 10.9.x. Version “v3” is based on CIM v.3 and is only compatible with ArcGIS Pro 3.x and ArcGIS Enterprise 11.x. Background information can be found in the following HelpCenter article.

Installation:

1. Backup your entire WebOffice web-application (e.g. C:\Tomcat\webapps\<WebOffice web-application>) to a save place
2. Stop Apache Tomcat (Start/Programs/Administrative Tools/Services)
3. Delete the working directory of Apache Tomcat at e.g. C:\Tomcat\work\Catalina\localhost\<WebOffice web-application>
4. Update “ArcGIS Server Object Extension for WebOffice” at least to: 109.3.0.202310101054

• In ArcGIS Server Manager under “Services” choose to stop the Map Service “SynOutputService” (or all services, where “WebOffice Server Object Extension” is activated)
• In ArcGIS Server Manager under “Site/Extensions” choose to edit “WebOffice Server Object Extension” and select “<Patch>\ArcGIS for Server Object Extension\syn_soe_ao_gateway.soe” to upload
  • Don’t use uninstall and install the extension, because else you have to set the properties for “WebOffice Server Object Extension” again!
    
• Copy the content of <Patch>\WebOfficeSystem to <Drive>\arcgisserver\directories\WebOfficeSystem
• In ArcGIS Server Manager under “Services” choose to start the Map Service “SynOutputService” (or all services, where “WebOffice Server Object Extension” is activated)

5. Copy WO109R3_patch_YYYYMMDD.exe to the directory of your WebOffice web-application (e.g. C:\Tomcat\webapps\<WebOffice web-application>)
6. Run WO109R3_patch_YYYYMMDD.exe and choose to overwrite all existing files
7. Delete the file WO109R3_patch_YYYYMMDD.exe
