This process must be repeated every time the Media Manager Digizuite Mobile App is updated. |
For this installation, no website is needed. Digizuite Mobile App is a self employed product that reflects the Digizuite Media Manager.
During the installation process there are changes applied to the DAM database. For this reason it is strongly recommended to back up the database for the DAM Center before proceeding with running the installation script.
Before you can use the Media Manager Mobile App, an installation script need needs to be applied to the DAM Center to accompany the installation:run towards the DAM Center.
For DAM Center releases later than than 5.3.0 (incl. 5.3.0)
Use this version for 5.3.2 and up:
Copy the zip installation folder from swinstall, into the server and unzip the file.
In the folder, there is a appsettings.json file which needs to have some data set:
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|

{
"Logging": {
"LogLevel": {
"Default": "Debug",
"System": "Information",
"Microsoft": "Information"
}
},
"Upgrade": {
"ConnectionString": "#{ConnectionString}",
"RunGenerateSearchForAll": true,
"ApiUrl": "#{ApiUrl}",
"ApiUsername": "#{ApiUsername}",
"ApiPassword": "#{ApiPassword}",
"VersionGuid": "1356CC29-B3A4-E6CC-152A-FEE1504E0C34",
"Availability": "74A5A102-A310-4BB7-9E84-0B14C36436B2",
"Timeout": "00:30:00"
}
} |
Here is a description of all the configuration parameters:
| Parameter name | Description |
|---|---|
| ConnectionString | The database connection string. Must include the SQL server IP/Hostname, database name for the DAM Center, and the credentials of a SQL Server user with the rights to edit the given database. Most of this information can be found in the Media Manager's corresponding appsettings.json file. |
| RunGenerateSearchForAll | Determines whether all Solr searches should be repopulated after the installation/update. Default: true |
| ApiUrl | The URL to the DAM Center external API. Usually this would be the base URL of the DAM Center, with /dmm3bwsv3 added to the end. |
| ApiUsername | The high level user. Default: System |
| ApiPassword | MD5 hash of the password for the user set in apiUsername. You will find this in the db members table. |
| VersionGuid | A unique key which refers to mobile. Don't change it, if it works. Otherwise, locate your Mobile GUID in Mobile's configManager. Default: 1356CC29-B3A4-E6CC-152A-FEE1504E0C34 |
| Availability | GUID of metadata field that controls publishing. Default: 74A5A102-A310-4BB7-9E84-0B14C36436B2 |
| Timeout | Maximum time (in seconds) to wait before timing out any request. If using runGenerateSearchForAll, the advised value is 1800. Default: 1800 |
Once the config file is set up correctly and saved, run db-upgrade.exe. You may choose to run it by double clicking it, by calling it from the CMD prompt, or, if you want to retain the log, run it via PowerShell.
For DAM Center releases earlier than 5.3.0
The folder includes a "MediaManager.DbUpgrade" executable that is an all-in-one. You must specify a variety of configuration parameters in the accompanying MediaManager.DbUpgrade.exe.config file before running the executable script.
The following is an example of a valid configuration:

There is a small possibility of the installer crashing due to a rare deadlock issue. If this happens, simply run the application one more time. |
Configuration
A new version of Digizuite Mobile App needs to be created in the DAM center:
- Open the DAM center
- Go to ConfigManager
- Select Digizuite Mobile and expand the folder
- Click on "Default" folder
- Create a new version in the upper right corner. Name could e.g. be "Mobile".
Once the configuration is done in the DAM center, information about the customer must be send to LET Software. The information can be found:
iOS: 1355 - Build Digizuite™ Mobile app for iOS - new
...

(1) Download the following file MobileAppConfiguration.json
(2) Edit the information in the file according to the following guidelines:

SSOLoginMode | This line enables or disables the ability to log in through SSO. Default: true |
