Version Up Notes

  • Data, settings, and logs will not be lost when upgrading CAMServer. However, if you change the installation location, it will start up as a different environment and will appear to have disappeared. Please note that the installation location is memorized by default, so please do not change it intentionally.
  • During the CAMServer upgrade, clients will not be able to use CAMServer functions. Therefore, it is recommended that the upgrade be performed at night when there are few users.
  • Immediately after upgrading, we have identified a problem that prevents the video server from starting until the Windows Defender scan starts and completes. You will need to restart the CAMServer after a period of time or set an exclusion so that the CAMServer folder is not scanned.
    Set Windows Defender not to scan certain files and folders
