Installation features
InstallAnywhere upgrade
In Domino 14.5 EAP Drop 2, InstallAnywhere has been upgraded to 2024 R1 as the installer for Domino on all platforms.
Windows Installer extractor upgrade
The AllClient kit extractor has been upgraded to handle larger kit sizes to avoid out of disk space errors. This extractor will launch an updated window, shown in the following screenshot.
There are no changes in functionality and all existing install features and command line options will continue to work.
OnTime upgrade
The version of OnTime Group Calendar included with Domino is updated to 11.5.1 in Early Access Drop 2, providing enhancements to the client user interface for the group calendar.
For information on installing, configuring, and implementing clients for OnTime Group Calendar, see the OnTime for Domino documentation on the OnTime website.
Verse install path change
Starting in 14.5 Drop 2, during a Domino server installation, the default Verse installation location is the program directory (formerly the Domino Data directory).
Use cases for upgrading to Domino 14.5 are as follows:
- If a newer version of Verse is available, the Verse jar files are deleted from the data directory and the new files from the kit are installed to the program directory.
- If the latest available version of Verse is the same, the Verse jar files are moved to the program directory.
- If a newer version of Verse is available, your existing Verse jar files are deleted and the new files from the kit are installed to the program directory.
- If the latest available version of Verse is the same, your existing Verse jar files are restored in the program directory.
