Advanced deployment
For advanced deployments (deployment automations tools…), it can be useful to get the update in the .MSP format. It is possible to extract an .MSP file from the .EXE file available for download in MEGA Community.
 
Note that with recent operating systems, it is required that the installation is performed not only by a user that belongs to the group of 'Administrators' but also that the installation program is executed with the privilege 'Run as administrator'.
 
As no command 'Run as administrator' is available on the .MSP file, a specific procedure is proposed below to install the update. Otherwise, the installation may not be fully upgraded and various problems can occur especially with HOPEX Web Front-end.
 
Procedure:
For each .EXE file:
1. Copy the .EXE file in a temporary folder
Example: copy HOPEX_V2R1_U01.0.exe in C:\tmp
2. In the Start-up menu of MS Windows, search 'Command prompt'.
3. Select 'Command prompt', R click > Run as administrator.
A command prompt is open with Run as administrator privilege.
4. Browse the temporary folder
5. Run a command /E to extract the .MSP file. Example:
"HOPEX_V2R1_U01.0.exe" /E
The .MSP file is uncompressed in the current folder.
