Upgrade from 7 version on terminal server

Post by Quadro » Mon May 07, 2012 6:12 am

Hello.
I can not upgrade from 7 version FrontMotion.
Help - About - "Updates disabled by system administrator"
I tried "start as administrator" domain & local administrator. It has no effect.
In GPO I have not found a parameter responsible disable\enable update firefox.
Users work from thinclient on terminal server.

How to fix this?
sorry for bad english.

Forgot to specify.
I'm talking about automatic updates.
Or I have to manually install new .msi packet on terminal server?

You cannot upgrade through Mozilla's servers because you don't have a Mozilla build of Firefox.

If you push the application out using an .MSI build, you must upgrade the product using subsequent (newer version) .MSI builds.

Does the problem happen using a new profile or is it isolated to the profile that was upgraded from 7? Google "Firefox profile manager" for instructions on how to access & create a new profile for testing purposes.

I would hope that the problem will go away with a new profile, at which point you can just migrate over bookmarks, etc. from the old profile, then delete it.

Sorry, I haven't deployed 11, I'm in the process of readying the ESR release of Firefox 10 for deployment, precisely to avoid profile corruption for as long as possible.
