Version Up Notes
- Please disable security tool scans during the version upgrade.We have confirmed an issue where the video server fails to start. This issue can be avoided by excluding the CAMServer folder from scanning. (Reference) Set Windows Defender not to scan certain files and folders
- Upgrading CAMServer will not erase your data, settings, or logs.However, if you change the installation location, it will start up as a different environment, making it appear as if it has disappeared.The installation location is remembered by default, so please be careful not to change it intentionally.
- If there has been a long gap since the last version update,Always copy the CAMServer folder as a backup after stopping CAMServer.Please do so. Also, perform version upgrade verification using the CAMServer folder copied in the test environment.
- During the CAMServer version upgrade, users will be unable to use CAMServer functions.It is recommended to perform version upgrades during off-peak hours, such as at night when there are fewer users.I will.
