Upgrading the Lightning Conductor Web Part

Most months we issue updates to the Web Part.  You can apply the updates easily by following the below simple instructions:

1. Login to the downloads section of our web site to download the latest version.
2. Extract the Zip File onto the Web Front End Server
3. Open a command prompt
4. Use stsadm to upgrade the solution, see example command (C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>"C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft
    Shared\web server extensions\12\BIN\STSADM.EXE" -o upgradesolution -f "C:\LightningConductorWebPart.wsp" -immediate -allowcaspolicies -name lightningconductorwebpart.wsp
5. You will receive a message to say that a timer job has been created.  You can run the timer job using the following command: (C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>"C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft
    Shared\web server extensions\12\BIN\STSADM.EXE" -o execadmsvcjobs)
6. The Web Part instances will now be updated.
