Version	Things to be aware of
DC 4.

7You must not have a redirect site on the IIS while updating (redirecting is used for sending people from http to https). Doing that, will make the the updater stop at "Reloading in 10 sec for next step.". The install log will also say that you have duplicate bindings. NEK says that it's URL rewrite is at fault, and that he cannot do anything about it.

The release notes: DC 4.7.0

Warning

title	Do not use the included DFS

You must not use the DFS that is included in the 4.7.0 release of the Digizuite™ DAM Center.

By default PPTX will not work. You need to follow either of these two guides to make them work:

(Customer doesn't have Office installed) /wiki/spaces/PSBOK/pages/80126158
(Customer has Office installed) /wiki/spaces/PSBOK/pages/78258707

Fix to make MM's connected to DC 4.7.0's assets appear in the Media Manager every time - without having to publishing them manually.

Go to the DAM Center
Go to the workflow ItemWatcher → (MM) OOBE Give access to admins
In the field "Process only where this validation applies (e.g. <FolderType>6</FolderType>)” overwrite it with this line: "LocationState>111001</LocationState> && <LocationStateOld>111000</LocationStateOld>”
Press save.

By enabling AD FS embed links from the DAM Center will not work anymore. The user will be met by a message saying "Access denied". This is most likely not a new thing. AD FS Set-up and Configuration - DAM v4.7.0

(SRE) When updating a system, the updater might not copy digibatch_right_content_details.aspx from the pre-subfolder to the site root folder. This will cause the DAM Center to return the following error:

Image Removed

when trying to view/edit a job. (Noted during the Tulip Test DC 4.6.1 → 4.7.0 Update.) Fix: Copy "*site*\pre\digibatch_right_content_details.aspx" to "*site*\digibatch_right_content_details.aspx"

Significant known issues

First issue

When you add a new language, you need to recycle the DC. You cannot e.g. edit labels in multiple languages.

Install (You need to know this before installing)

The installer is completely new. Please make sure you know how to utilize it to its full potential.

Web Install (You need to know this before web installing)

This functionality has been removed. You need to use the main installer now.

Update (You need to know this before updating)

The installer is now also the updater

DC 4.9.0

Warning
DAM Center 4.9.0 requires Batch 3.2.0 for PDF Forms to work

Significant known issues

First issue

When you replace an asset through the DC GUI, the resulting "new" asset will not be put in the "old" asset's location (that is, the location of the asset you're replacing), but instead in the folder which you're uploading the "new" asset. This is the case whether you're retaining the old metadata or not. Replacing from the Media Manager will not do this, as it'll simply replace the asset in the folder it's located in. This is the case, even if the asset is located in another folder than "Content" (Folder ID 40)

Image Removed
to the table named "digimonitor_customer_trigger_events_allowignore_rules". Without this, changing the thumbnail of a video will not work. Jira LegacyserverJIRA

Install (You need to know this before installing)

As of 4.8.0, RGB is not a color space option anymore. This wasn't communicated out (afaik) so I'm noting it down. Updating will not remove it. RGB produced dark images.

Web Install (You need to know this before web installing)

Update (You need to know this before updating)

The new batch (3.2.0) has the newest versions of FFMPEG and Image Magick. One or both of these two are utilizing new profile formats (XML). Therefore you must check all custom made formats after update, to see if they work. Niels Erik Knudsen (Unlicensed) and Andre Creosteanu (Unlicensed) you two might have more knowledge on this than me - please edit this if you have changes.

DC 4.8.0

(You can alternatively just use this script: Inset into ignore rules.sql)
Then make the following ItemWatcher workflows active:

-Republish asset when Frameaccurate Thumbnail is changed (Will make video thumbnail replace work)

-Republish asset when crop is changed (Will make video thumbnail crop replace work - currently, it has issues - but for the future, this should be enabled.)

Please note down all the solr and smtp configurations (Constants in DC only) from the DC installation - as we've experienced IHP having these deleted upon the update. It of course worked before the update. PSU and Leon's environments didn't experience the same issue.

Before updating, if the customer has a MM, and has embed, please note down the embed qualities and formats in MM's "video embed qualities" list. These may be reset upon DC update to 4.7.0 (IHP experienced this - This isn't necessarily true - if you find out it isn't, then delete this line). After updating, revert the qualities back. This is done solely from the MM's config manager.

There's been added a new job system UI

job system in the DC and "editing" a job.

Before updating, please be aware that the old profiles and destinations configuration most likely need to be moved to a new place: /wiki/spaces/PSBOK/pages/78777931

If you're updating DC to 4.7.0, you need to install a prerequisite program named "Microsoft Message Queuing (MSMQ)". The installer will handle it on new installations.

OOBE is now part of the installer. You cannot update a non-OOBE to an OOBE. The OOBE has all MHM's findings included from the /wiki/spaces/PSBOK/pages/60162102 list.
The "Template UI" is removed from this release, which (supposedly) means that metadata cannot be extracted as a manifest in this release
- (This is my current presumption - things might have changed. If you feel that this is not correct, please inform me, so I can edit this entry)
The installer now includes most requirements - the only ones that aren't in there are .NET 4.6.2 and the windows updates. These are needed for the installation of DC. The reason why these are not included is that they need restarts to function.
There's a new Search 2 UI, and a documentation regarding it - which can be found here: Draft - Search Editor - DAM v4.7.0. It's highly suggested that you read it.
A lot of searches are now hidden, as they're not something that anybody should be touching.

There's a new UI for jobs in the DC, where there are now more states that assets can be in. The technical states can be found here in NEK's comment:

DC 4.6.1

Many, if not all of the 4.6.0 issues still persist in this release. (They can be seen in the table entry above)
You must still patch the DC if you are updating from a version prior to 4.6.0 (that is 4.5.1 and below). Again, see the table entry above.
As of 4.6.0, you have to use the new version of the following file: ffmpegtag_H264_main_3.0.xml which is not updated automatically (I think is has to do with batch and DC being decoupled) (Storage\DMM\Profiles\Video)

DC 4.6.0

You're not able to update without patching (

They have corrected the "greater than" issue - so workflows, where this is implemented, needs to be reversed!
(This is something that PS can sell) You need to manually add the 1080p download quality to your users/groups to have it enabled in MM/VP. It has already been added to the portals. (Format: 50037 - Video H264 1080p) (It's very likely that all videos in portals must be transcoded.)
Install URL Rewrite to IIS server (Use this link: http://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/url-rewrite [MHM tested LIU])
The user you are using has to have write access (read access isn't sufficient) to the default upload catalog folder (Constant: DEFAULT_CATALOGFOLDERID)
(This is still not pinpointed entirely) When creating new Solr search, on PSU/I at lest you need to switch back and forth between ApplicationPoolIdentity and LocalService, as it will not create a core folder without the switch. Recycle or Restarting will not work. Only changing the user works. PSI doesn't have this problem anymore it seems.
You need to install the new version of the batch system (3.0.1 92 is the newest as of speaking - you need to install .NET 4.6.2 in the batch server)
You need to unlink the old batch before updating. NEK and JBH have informed me that you mustn't use a pre-4.6.0 on a 3.0.0 batch system. The way I've understood it, there's a risk to the _job-database, which might become broken.
If the install_config_actualsite isn't properly configured, the update.aspx will display a form where you can input all the information. THIS FORM ISN'T WORKING!!! -

(LiU 4.5.1 → 4.6.1 doesn't) (PSI/U 4.6.0 → 4.6.1 works) (UPDATE: Impersonation doesn't work - you should therefore use a non-unc path e.g. C:/... instead of \\)
Copy template should be looked at, as of this version uploaded content's workflows will not trigger as it did prior to DC 4.6.0
Copy template has an issue seemingly starting from 4.6.0 → 4.6.1 RC3 (We know that it's an issue on 4.6.1 RC3) which has been fixed in versions greater than 4.6.1 RC3. You have to disable keywords from IPTC. (LBB has done it already, and it works)
Clean Up still doesn't work on Azure (I've been told) - And it might also have some issues in 4.6.1 RC3 still.
If you don't install (or already have installed) "Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Redistributable (x64)" there will be a DFS error regarding default previews in the DC install/update process.
You need to install .NET 4.6.2 on the batch server
As of 4.6.0, you have to use the new version of the following file: ffmpegtag_H264_main_3.0.xml which is not updated automatically (I think is has to do with batch and DC being decoupled) (Storage\DMM\Profiles\Video)
By default you're not able to publish .zip and .xlsx to MM, as there's no profiles set up in the MM's profiles and destinations. - Set up the transcode quality, assign it to a profile, and assign that profile to the MM.

In cases where publishing of other than IMAGE assettypes hits the same profile (e.g. PSD files), check if Transcode Settings has Source format IMAGE (should either be "All" or you need to create a new one for the PSD assets (in this example)). The result if NOT doing this is that publishing of PSD files will not produce any file (in this example).
When you update from an earlier version (e.g. pre DC4.5.0) you may encounter that you have no thumbnails. Please use the script in the following link to fix them:
