Web console reports using an older version when I have already upgraded
Hi, I just updated from 9.2.113 to 10.0.4, which seemed to go smoothly, but now every time I visit the web console it reports at the top: I'm already on the latest version I can find, and it happens on any machine/browser even those I have cleared the browser cache for. This is what the server reports: Any ideas how to get rid of the message? Cheers, Fernando

Erroneous APIPA warning
For a while now, I have been seeing a warning on the Home screen of my Desktop Central interface. It doesn't seem to break any functionality but it does get tiresome seeing it every single day. Our server runs on an a static IP and it hasn't changed in years. I have verified this. There are also no other network connections besides the LAN adapter. I did submit a ticket for it and the technician's answer was that we have a loopback address on the server and that needs to be removed. Well, I am fairly
Desktop Central 10 Fonts Lato are BAD...
I don't know if anyone else thinks this but the new Lato fonts in new DC 10 are horrible.. I converted different font into .eot .woff .woff2 format and replaced in DesktopCentral_Server\webapps\DesktopCentral\themes\styles\font (rename new ones into Lato.*) making the page display crisp text.. Don't know why DC development staff would pick such horrible font..
New Office and New Domain
We currently have desktop central setup in our main office on our domain I need to demo desktop central for managing a new office location with new, separate domain. Other than setting up a distribution server and putting in the credentials for the new domain, are there any other considerations I should be preparing for when demonstrating the software?

Update Manager warning when applying 92113 hotfix
My environment has an on-premise Desktop Central 9 installation running build 92099. I want to apply the hotfix to upgrade to 92133, but the update manager gives me the following warning and I cannot proceed: "This build 92113 is currently not recommended for your network. Please wait till you get latest build updates from Desktop Central." Is there a workaround for this, or could I perhaps be missing something? Thanks!
Desktop Central 10/9 version confusion?
Hi, On the main download page for DC it now states download desktop central 10. However when you then go to click on the service packs and upgrades it takes you to the current build of 9. Am I right in assuming that the main download where it states version 10 is still actually version 9? Or have i missed something about an upgrade version? Thanks

Login issues?
Hello, Curious if anybody else is experiencing login issues with Desktop Central. I currently have a support case open but wanted to reach out to the community as well. The application and services are all running (successful agent communication etc) however; our login attempts are getting lost in the void. The page just churns as the authentication request dies in the background (both local and domain authentication.) This is not a new DC9 installation or setup, we've been running it for years now.

Bug: Registering Agents when over Licenses
We have version 92119. Last week we installed agents on 3 PC's. However we reached our licence limit so these devices never showed in the console. After we applied more licences, the PC's still did not show in the console, even after several reboots. We were able to install agents on other PC's and the came up in the console. The only way we could get the 3 PC's to show in the console was to repair the agent install. To summarise - agents will not register if you install when over your licence limit,
Distribution Server - Scheduled Synchronisations
Request: We need Scheduled synchronisation of Distribution servers and the central server to occur outside of core business hours. So the feature we would like is to have a synchronisation schedule from central server to DS Real World Scenario: We have 10 remote offices, all with rubbish internet bandwidth and many devices.

Desktop Central Patches - clean up / delete?
Hi, The C:\ManageEngine\DesktopCentral_Server folder on my server has grown to about 9GB. There's some subfolders and single files there related to patches that have been applied to the Desktop Central application itself, not to be confused with "patch management" for applying patches to client machines. These are new releases of Desktop Central that have been applied via the .ppm files. I have around 430MB of .ppm's located under the Patch subfolder, as well as various other subfolders named with
File Transfer

DC Backup - No Idle Connection Found
Is there a way to gracefully stop a backup procedure? I started a manual backup using backuprestore.bat about 5 hours ago. I came back from a meeting and it was still going. I checked the backuplog0.txt file and found multiple entries of the following. The last 4 lines stating "No idle connection found" is listed multiple times. And direction would be helpful.

Desktop Central MSP (92082) and multiple computers sharing the same name
How Desktop Central reacts when there are multiple computers sharing the same name under same customer? Sometimes we have a situation where computer will be replaced and it will use the same name as the old computer. Both are having DC agent online at the same time for some time. We have seen a situation with older versions of DC MSP where this will mess up inventory data, remote connections etc. Removal also causes both agents to stop working.
Impact of deleting a unique static group
Good morning, Wanting to modify some custom groups, I hit the delete button for a unique static group but was then presented with an impact window stating "Packages that are published will be revoked". Can anyone tell me what this will have as exact impact? Will it just remove packages from the Self-Service Portal that are published for this group or will it actually uninstall software packages that were deployed with this unique static group as target? Clarification would be most welcome. Steve
