Information about PlanetPress Workflow 8
If you wish to use PlanetPress
Workflow (automation) in conjunction with PlanetPress Connect,
you will need to install PlanetPress
Workflow 8 onto the same machine. Workflow 8 is provided through a separate
installer which is available on CD or for download as follows:
PlanetPress Workflow 8 can
be installed in parallel on the same machine as an existing PlanetPress®
Suite 7.x installation.
Note however:
- If both versions need to be hosted on the same machine, PlanetPress Workflow 8 must always be
installed after the legacy PlanetPress® Suite 7.x installation.
- When uninstalling PlanetPress
Workflow 8, you may be prompted to repair your legacy PlanetPress®
Suite 7.x installation.
- If PlanetPress Workflow
8 has been installed alongside PlanetPress® Suite 7, Capture can no
longer be used with Workflow 7. The plugins are now registered uniquely
to Workflow 8 and the messenger for Workflow 7 is taken offline. It
is only then possible to use Capture from PlanetPress
Workflow 8.
- PlanetPress Workflow
8 and PlanetPress® Suite Workflow 7 cannot run simultaneously, since only
one version of the Messenger service can run at a time. In fact, no two versions of Workflow can be run simultaneously on the same machine, regardless of versions.
- It is possible to switch between different versions running by
shutting down one version's services and then starting the other.
However, this is not recommended. There are no technical limitations
that prevent processes from previous PlanetPress Suite Workflow versions
(as far back as Version 4) to run on PlanetPress
Workflow 8, removing the need to run both versions.
