If you're upgrading from 3.x, please see the Release Notes for Open-AudIT v4.0.0 and the associated blog post for Open-AudIT 4.0.0.

WINDOWS USERS - IMPORTANT

If you are upgrading from an earlier Windows release of Open-AudIT you will need to open the file c:\omk\conf\opLicense.nmis (it's a text file) and copy the encrypted string (just the string itself). When you log in to Open-AudIT, you will be offered to obtain a license. Click the button on the lower left to "Restore my License". On the next screen, click the button on the left "Enter a License Key". Paste in the encrypted string and click the "Add License" button. Then click the Open-AudIT entry in the list on the right (to be taken to Open-AudIT).

Apologies for the caveat, we plan to address this in a future release (ASAP).

Windows Users - Technical Note

Prior to Open-AudIT 4.0.1 we configured a Windows Service (omkd / Opmantek) to start Open-AudIT Enterprise. Because of our change in code infrastructure, we can no longer utilize Windows Services. We now supply and configure a Scheduled Task to start Open-AudIT Enterprise at boot. If your application is not responding, from now on restart the "Open-AudIT Start" scheduled task instead of the omkd service. Open the task manager and End, then Run the Open-AudIT Start task.
