Web application Update
This hot fix requires steps that will update the web application deployed to your application server.

Step 1: Stop SAS Services
For information about stopping and restarting the server, depending on your operating system, see Chapter 6 “Operating Your Servers” in SAS 9.4 Intelligence Platform: System Administration Guide.

Step 2: Backup the contents of the SAS Social Network Analysis war.
Make a copy of the SAS Social Network Analysis war that you have deployed. Move the following directory to another directory outside of the sas_webapps path:

<CONFIGDIR>/Lev1/Web/WebAppServer/SASServer8_1/sas_webapps/sas.sso.snaserver.war

**Note: If you have modified config files, such as advanced search/disposition, make sure to keep a copy of them so you can add them easily after the web application gets re-built.

Step 3: Re-build Web Applications
In order for this step to execute correctly, the Metadata Server must be running.
**Note: SDM will start it for you if it is not running.

3.1 Invoke the SAS Deployment Manager 9.4
From the SASDeploymentManager directory launch sasdm.sh. The default installation path for the SAS Deployment Manager is

<SASHOME>/SASDeploymentManager/9.4

3.2 Select a language in the Choose Language box

3.3 Select Rebuild Web Applications

3.4 Select Configuration Directory or Enter the Configuration Directory and Level that needs to be updated

3.5 Specify Connection Information, including the sasadm User ID and Password

3.6 Select SAS Social Network Analysis Mid-Tier as the Web Application to Rebuild

3.7 Verify the information on the Summary screen and select Start

3.8 Select Finish when the deployment is complete

This process will update the SAS Social Network Analysis Mid-Tier ear in <CONFIGDIR>/Lev1/Web/Staging. A backup of the original ear file will be placed in the Backup directory.

Step 4: Delete sas.sso.fraudwebapp.jar from the sas.sso.snaserver.war directory.

For example, delete
*sas.sso.fraudwebapp.jar
from
<CONFIGDIR>/Lev1/Web/WebAppServer/SASServer8_1/sas_webapps/sas.sso.snaserver.war/WEB-INF/lib/

Step 5: Copy files and directories from the exploded ear directory to the SAS Social Network Analysis deployment area.

5.1 Locate the exploded war directory for SAS Social Network Analysis in the configuration directory:

<CONFIGDIR>/Lev1/Web/Staging/exploded/sas.socialnetworkanalysis6.2.ear/sas.sso.snaserver.war

5.2 Copy the following directory from the exploded ear directory (above) to the SAS Social Network Analysis deployment within SASServer8.

*sas.sso.snaserver.war

For example, copy
<CONFIGDIR>/Lev1/Web/Staging/exploded/sas.socialnetworkanalysis6.2.ear/sas.sso.snaserver.war
to
<CONFIGDIR>/Lev1/Web/WebAppServer/SASServer8_1/sas_webapps/sas.sso.snaserver.war

Step 6: Delete the work directory in SASServer8

rm -rf <CONFIGDIR>/Lev1/Web/WebAppServer/SASServer8_1/work

Step 7: Delete the contents of the temp directory in SASServer8

rm -rf <CONFIGDIR>/Lev1/Web/WebAppServer/SASServer8_1/temp/*
