Configuring ClickOnce

To configure ClickOnce, complete the following steps:

  1. On the staging computer, create the following folders:
    • c:\source
    • c:\destination
  2. Download and extract the media zip file locally on the staging computer.
  3. In the extracted media file, in the Client_Applications folder, copy the ClickOnce_EPPM.zip file to the c:\source folder on the staging computer.
  4. In the extracted media file, in the Client_Applications folder, double-click Primavera.Deployment.EPPM.exe.
  5. On the P6 Pro Enterprise Deployment Utility screen, do the following:
    1. In the ClickOnce Server Name field, enter the fully qualified domain name for the WebLogic server to be used for deployment. For example:

    myservername.domainname.com

    Note: Do not enter http:// or https://.

    1. In the ClickOnce Server Port field, enter the WebLogic port where the ClickOnce managed server is running.

      Note: If you are using port redirection, do not change the default value, which is 0.

    2. Select or clear the HTTPS option, as needed. Oracle recommends that you select this option.
    3. In the Published Version field, do not enter anything. The value auto-populates based on the Source Location value.
    4. Select the Mandatory Update option to automatically replace any previously installed version of P6 Professional. Otherwise, users will be prompted to replace any previously installed versions.

      Caution: If you select Mandatory Update P6 Professional prerequisites are not automatically updated. If you update your P6 Professional installation to version 17 from a previous release, you must ensure all client computers have .NET 4.6.2 installed. If .NET 4.6.2 is not installed on your client machines, the update will fail. System administrators should update .NET and other prerequisites on all client computers before upgrading or installing P6 Professional. For more information on P6 Professional prerequisites see Prerequisites for Signing and Deploying P6 Professional Using ClickOnce.

    5. In the Password field, enter the password for the PFX file.
    6. In the Certificate File Path field, enter the location of the PFX file.
    7. In the SignTool.exe File Path field, enter the location of SignTool.exe, which is C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\bin\x86 by default.
    8. Click Add Alias to create a new row in the grid.

      Note: You can create multiple aliases in the grid. The first alias you create will become the default. To change which alias is the default, mark the Default option for a different alias.

    9. In the new grid row:
      • In the Alias Name column, enter the alias is used by P6 Professional to connect to Cloud Connect Server.
      • In the Connection String column, enter the connection string to the database in one the following formats:

        <database>@<hostname>:<port>/p6procloudconnect

        <database>@http://<hostname>:<port>/p6procloudconnect

        <database>@https://<hostname>:<port>/p6procloudconnect

      • In the SAML Web SSO column, if the P6 Professional Cloud Connect service associated with the alias uses SAML, mark the option.
      • In the Client-Side Cache column, to improve performance with the P6 Professional Cloud Connect service mark the option.
      • Optionally, in the Read Timeout field, enter the number of seconds for the cloud read timeout. Oracle recommends you use the default value, which is 900.
    10. In the Source Location field, do not enter anything. This is the location of the clickonceEPPM.zip file, which you copied to the c:\source folder earlier.
    11. In the MAGE Path file, enter the location of mage.exe, which is c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.1A\bin\NETFX 4.5.1 Tools by default.
