For update checking
- Convert .exe to .msi for Windows version (Michael used http://www.exemsi.com/), and make a copy of .dmg that has .zip extensionn
- Up until version 4.0.106 ShareSynch would expect a .msi, but since 4.0.107 it expects an .exe.
- Reason for renaming .dmg to .zip is just because Dave Johns had troubled serving .dmg from his server.
- Upload all 3 files to software.sharehim.org/ss4/ following the naming convention there.
- Change software.sharehim.org/ss4/curver.txt to the new version number.
- Make same changes on Dave John's server at http://www.translatesermons.com/ss4/curver.txt
- No reason to upload the .exe here though since the old versions that still check at this URL only looks for .msi files.
For initial downloads
- Upload the new .exe and .dmg versions to tn1.sharehim.org/var/www/sharesynch-software
- Make sure the name follows the convention.
- Modify tn1.sharehim.org/var/www/.htaccess to reflect the new files in the "latest sharesynch" pointers.
