Upgrade your OSCE 8 to OSCE 10 using client packager

If you want to create the new packager that can upgrade the existing client to the ver 8 without uninstallation of the client.

There are options which you can modify on the OSCE server’s ofcscan.ini to allow upgrade.

To modify "ofcscan.ini" on the OfficeScan server's "\PCCSRV" folder, then create the client package:

On the "INI_CLIENT_SETUP_SECTION" section:

BypassServerChecking=1 ,

which allows the MSI/exe package can be installed on any OfficeScan client computers, even they are not managed by the package packed server.


BypassUpgradePrivilegeChecking=1 ,

which allows the MSI/exe package can perform client programs upgrade, even the client is configured as it cannot upgrade programs or hot fixes from the server.


You may need to revert back to the original settings once the packager is created.
