  • This version

    hopefully fixed database corruption issues on Windows installations

    • Fixes an issue affecting debt collection offices only.
      A software vendor has reported an issue where MH v 3.4.4 sometimes fails to detect when a PDF file is locked by another application and therefore cannot remove the PDF file once it has been signed. As a result, the same PDF file is signed and sent over and over again until the other application removes the lock.

    • introduces an up to date Java runtime for the Windows platform.
      Note for upgrading:

    •  Be aware, that the MSI Installer always performs a completely new installation. It is not conceive to perform an upgrade! So back-up your MH configuration before installing the new version.

    • You can safely upgrade your installation, if its status database is not corrupted. In this case you can shut down MH, install the new version 3.4.0 and start it. If the status database of your installation is corrupted, you must remove the corrupted database before starting the new version!

The Windows ZIP package and the Linux package for v 3.3.3 are not affected. For this reason no ZIP and Linux package are provided for v 3.3.4.

How to upgrade from release 2.2.x to release 3.x

Beginning with release 3.0.0 the configuration of MH was been completely revamped. In order to upgrade from release 2.2.x to release 3.x you will have to provide a new configuration file. We recommend to completely uninstall the old version (stop the service, remove the service, move the old software installation and the configuration file to an archive location). Subsequently install the new version,  read carefully the provided documentation and write a new configuration file.

To make your life easier, we provide an configuration assistant application, which will guide you through the creation of the configuration file. Download the assistent, unpacked the ZIP file and double-click the file config-assistant.bat. If the assistant will not start, you will have to edit the file and set the JAVA_HOME variable.
