EPC713 includes these changes:

CCS id.	Description
100291	Check In then edit a function causes many lock messages attempting to propagate. Propagation of a function via the host monitor fails when the function is locked by another user. The host monitor now only sends the message once, instead of repeatedly.

112823	Error during compile on some display files when large fields are used. When compiling some display files that have long fields the field positions are not calculated correctly resulting in an error. They are now calculated correctly.
113026	Carriage return character removed from data in LANSA for the Web CR characters (0x0D) were incorrectly removed from data posted from user agents. Line feed LF (0x25) characters are removed. CR characters are only removed if they are followed by LF.

Did you receive the EPC from the LANSA Web site or by email?

Download EPC713.EXE file from Web site or email.
Unzip (double click) EPC713.EXE - this document, EPC713.HTM, will be extracted along with other files.
For iSeries shared folders:
- in Explorer, map to the shared folder drive
- create a folder named EPC713
- copy unzipped file EPC713 to folder EPC713
If your network file system is not supporting iSeries shared folders, use FTP via TCP/IP and perform the following steps:
- logon to the iSeries and create folder EPC713
- open a DOS session on the PC
- change to the directory where the downloaded and unzipped files are located
- sign on to FTP site - FTP XXXXXXXX (where XXXXXXXX is the name of iSeries system or TCP/IP address)
- enter your iSeries user id and password
- to send as a binary file : enter command bin
- change to QDLS file system : enter command cd /QDLS
- change to the folder EPC713 : enter command cd EPC713
- to send the downloaded file to the iSeries : enter command put EPC713
- to exit : enter command quit
Use XFLRTOSAVF command to convert the folder to a save file format (LANSA program library must be on your library list) - press F4 for command details. Save file will be created by this command.
You now have a save file. Continue installing by following the instructions in the next section.

Do you have the EPC in a save file or tape or CD-ROM?

Sign on as a user profile that is QSECOFR, part of the QSECOFR group, or, has *ALLOBJ and *SECADM special authorities.
NOTE: Check the OS/400 system value QFRCCVNRST. If QFRCCVNRST is set to 0, you must use FRCOBJCVN(*YES) on the RSTOBJ command.
Use the OS/400 RSTOBJ (restore object) command to restore all objects from library DC@EC713 (on the backup media) into library QTEMP.
- If using a CD-ROM you will use the following command:
  RSTOBJ OBJ(*ALL) SAVLIB(DC@EC713) DEV(optical device name) RSTLIB(QTEMP) OPTFILE(‘/EPC/EPC713')
- If using a save file you will use the following command:
  RSTOBJ OBJ(*ALL) SAVLIB(DC@EC713) DEV(*SAVF) SAVF(EPC713) RSTLIB(QTEMP)
Display your current library list. If QTEMP is not shown, then add it to your library list using the ADDLIBLE (add library list entry) command.
Install the EPC using the command:

LOADEPC713 PGMLIB(<pgmlib>)

Where <pgmlib> is the name of the LANSA program library. This is often DC@PGMLIB but it may be different on your system. After entering the library name, press enter. The LANSA data library, LANSA communication library, LANSA communication directory and IFS directory path will be displayed. Leave these defaults.
Press enter to continue processing.
Save and then delete the backout library (LANSAEC713) created by the install. The contents of the library may be used to back out this EPC and return your system to its previous state.
To install the EPC on another LANSA system, sign off and then on again before commencing the next installation.

Special Instructions for users of iSeries Web server (multi-tier)

To apply EPC713 on the Web server tier of your LANSA for the Web system, follow these steps:

If you haven't installed or upgraded LANSA for the Web on the Web server, do so before proceeding with step 2.
Restore the EPC objects into QTEMP (Perform the same steps you used to restore the objects in your LANSA for the Web application/data server system).
Display your current library list. If QTEMP is not shown, then add it to your library list using the ADDLIBLE (add library list entry) command.
Install the EPC for the Web server by using the command:

LOADE713MT ADMLIB(PPPPPPPPPP)
Where PPPPPPPPPP is the name of the LANSA for the Web Administration Library. After entering the library name, press enter. The current owner and the current LANSA communication extensions service program library will be displayed. Leave the defaults.
Press enter to continue processing.
Save, and then delete, the backout library (LANSAMT713) created by the install. The contents of this library may be used to backout this EPC and return your system to its previous state.
Sign off and sign on again if you want to run the configuration program.
