Run the UpdateManager.bat file located in <installation_directory>\bin (by default: C:\Program Files\ManageEngine\ADSelfService Plus\bin) from the Command Prompt using the privileges of a domain or local admin account (refer to the requirements for running the initPgsql.bat file mentioned above).

  2. Click Browse and select the service pack file. (ManageEngine_ADSelfService_Plus_x_x_SP-x_x_x.ppm) that you have downloaded.

Troubleshooting ADSelfService Plus installation issues

This Service Pack can be applied only on SP_X_X or later versions. So first update your product to version SP_X_X.

Reason: The server is running a significantly older version of ADSelfService Plus. Your installation will need updates installed during a few subsequent (major) versions of the product before it will be ready for the latest version.

Fix: Download and install every major version of ADSelfService Plus until the latest one.

Steps:

  • If your version of ADSelfService Plus is significantly older than the latest build you might encounter an error such as this while trying to install the latest patch:

  • In this case, you will need to keep updating ADSelfService Plus to the next major version from your current one until the latest build. Note: You will have to reopen the Update Manager application every time you update the current version.

    So, for instance, if you are running version 6013, update to version 6100, then to version 6200, and then finally to version 6207 (the latest build). You can find these patches on the ManageEngine site.

IMPORT CERTIFICATE.

Reason: The server is running an older version of ADSelfService Plus (before version 6201) and cannot connect to the ManageEngine site (blocked port, firewall restrictions, no internet connection, etc). The Update Manager automatically imports the certificate when it is able to connect to the ManageEngine site. However, when it cannot do so, you will need to import the certificate manually.

Fix: Import the certificate manually.

Steps:

  • If your version of ADSelfService Plus is older than version 6200, follow all the steps in the section 1 until you have version 6200.
  • Now install the next version. If the server is unable to connect to the ManageEngine site, you might get this pop-up:

  • Since the Update Manager is unable to connect to the ManageEngine site to import the certificate, you will need to import the certificate manually.
  • Steps to import the security certificate manually:
    1. Download the certificate by clicking this link.

      Run the UpdateManager.bat file located in <installation_directory>\bin (by default: C:\Program Files\ManageEngine\ADSelfService Plus\bin) from the Command Prompt using the privileges of a domain or local admin account (refer to the requirements for running the initPgsql.bat file mentioned above).
