Info

For Uptime Infrastructure Monitor 7.8.5 and later, the vcruntime140.dll must be installed prior to installing or upgrading. If the .dll is not available during the upgrade or installation process, you may receive a message that the procedure failed.
To fix this issue:

  1. Exit the installer by clicking OK.
  2. Install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable, available at the following URL: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145
  3. Re-run Uptime installer Uptime-7.8.5-windows.exe.
    If you currently have Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable installed on top of VC++ 2015 Redistributable, then the required registry key may not exist in your environment. To resolve this issue, you must "repair" VC++2017. For more information, see https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/262841/vc-runtime-redistributable-update-deletes-registry.html.

Linux installation/upgrade leads users to create two installation paths and breaking Apache

The Uptime Infrastructure Monitor Linux installer assumes Apache should be or is installed in /usr/local/apache, but it checks where Uptime is installed. This causes the user to have two different install paths for Uptime, which causes Apache to fail.

New installations may not launch the Auto-Discovery Wizard from installer
