Clarity 2023 How to Install the Updates Manually

If you are unable to use the updater tool to automatically download and install the updates due to network restrictions, you can download them and run them manually.

DOWNLOADS

First you will need to download and extract the following into a folder on the machine or on your network… For example C:\Clarity\Updates

Host

Task Servers

Updater Files

Download the updater files from the links below and place them in the same folder as the extracted content above.  For this it will just bring up a web page with that text so just right click on the page and save as to save it to the proper folder.

Task Servers

Configuration Change

Next we need to edit the config file so it knows where to pull the updater from.

  • Open with notepad: Updater.exe.config
  • Look for an entry in the XML file that says that the location for the UpdateLocation is:
    • http://s3.amazonaws.com/IMAGINiTSoftware/Updates/
  • Replace THAT url shown below with the folder that you have, i.e.
    • C:\Clarity\Updates
  • Host path C:\Program Files\IMAGINiT Technologies\Clarity Monitoring Service\
    • Host Config Example of location to change
  • Task Server path C:\Program Files\IMAGINiT Technologies\Clarity Task Server for Revit
    • Task Server Config Example of location to change
  • If you get an error saving the file, save it to the desktop, then move it into the folder and overwrite.
  • Make sure it is still seen as a configuration file or it will not work.

Running the Updater

Run the updater again by right clicking and Run as Administrator– it will look in that folder for the updates, find them, and copy them in.
