Updating Relay Server Binaries on Windows

Describes how to update the relay server binaries on Microsoft Information Service (IIS).

  1. From the Installation package, get the relevant Relay Server ZIP file:
    • for 32-bit operating systems, use relayserver.zip
    • for 64-bit operating systems, use relayserver_x64.zip

    The ZIP file contains the required executables and DLLs for the Relay Server.

  2. Stop the Relay Server service, for example:
    C:\inetpub\wwwroot\ias_relay_server\Server > dbsvc -x SUPRelayServer
  3. Extract the ZIP file under C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\ to create the folder structure:
    C:\inetpub\wwwroot\ias_relay_server 
    C:\inetpub\wwwroot\ias_relay_server\Server 
    C:\inetpub\wwwroot\ias_relay_server\Client 
  4. Verify that all the DLL files copied under these folders are of the required version, for example, 11.0.1.2527.
  5. Restart the Relay Server service, for example:
    C:\inetpub\wwwroot\ias_relay_server\Server > dbsvc -u SUPRelayServer
  6. Check the Relay Server logs to make sure the first line reflects the new version. For example, from C:\windows\System32\inetsrv\ias_relay_server_host.log:
