Installation

An urgent update of the SOFiE client must be done before March 14th, 2018. Please read this message.

Video tutorials are now available on this page: "SOFiE - Documentation - Video Tutorials".

Please note that for Windows systems you do not need to install Java on your system before installing SOFIE, given that a custom JRE is already embedded in the SOFiE installer package.
For installation procedure, please refer to the manual "Installation and profile creation" in the documentation section of this website.

What's new?

SOFiE-SORT-Crypt users may save the active user certificate to a flat file. This should simplify things when sending the certificate to the CSSF.

Some minor bug fixes.

For a standalone SOFiE Crypt batch installation, with no internet connectivity, the following zip file (Sofie_Prod_lib.V5.20.20180321.zip, modified on 21/03/2018) containing all the SOFiE jar files should be uncompressed in the SOFiE home folder, subfolder lib.

For all the other installation types, this add-on is not required. Moreover, if you have used the portable version of SOFiE for your Crypt batch installation, you don't need this add-on either.

It is highly recommended to delete the whole content in the folder “lib” (and only that one) before extracting the content of this ZIP archive.
