Deploy Configuration Files for Windows Authentication with an Upgrade Installation

You must apply the security changes in the client configuration files to the Cobra server and deploy them to each Cobra n-tier client before you can successfully connect to the server.

To update client configuration files when you upgrade your version of Cobra:

  1. On the Cobra n-tier server, navigate to the Cobra Installation directory where the Cobra client configuration files reside. The default installation location is C:\Program Files (x86)\Deltek\Cobra.
  2. Edit the Cobra.WinUi.exe.config and Cobra.api.exe.config files as needed.
  3. If you have previously edited the configuration files and stored them in another location, copy and paste them into the Cobra installation directory before you perform the Cobra server upgrade.
    During the server installation, the installer will copy the two configuration files from this location to the shared workstation folder.
