Leopard users need to download the full 9.0v3 installer and use their existing licence keys. "Do not install FileMaker Server 9.0v3 on Mac OS X 10.4.x before updating to 10.5.x. The installation must be performed on Mac OS X 10.5.x only," FileMaker officials warned, adding "Avoid using databases backed up by Time Machine in Mac OS X 10.5.x. Instead, use the FileMaker Server Admin Console to create a schedule to back up databases." Fixes in version 9.0v3 include: • Databases can now be closed and clients can be disconnected correctly while a FileMaker ODBC/JDBC session is active. • Field indexes no longer get out of sync between server side scripts, ODBC/JDBC clients, and FileMaker clients. • In Windows, fixed a problem with not being able to stop the Web Publishing Engine when stopping FileMaker Server from the Service Control Manager. • In Mac OS X, you can now unmount or eject a network or external disk after uploading a database from it using Admin Console. • Disconnecting a Server-side scripting client while the script is running now halts the script. • The consistency check on open will no longer report a database as damaged in cases where the issue found is completely innocuous. The full list of fixes is available from the FileMaker web site. |
