Support - Checking CMiC Versions

This article provides a concise and practical overview of how to check version information across various CMiC platforms and modules. Whether you're working with Enterprise, CMiC Field, CMiC Construct Apps, CMiC BI, or Jasper Reports, this document outlines the steps necessary to retrieve version details efficiently. This is particularly useful for CMiC Support and should be provided on cases when it is applicable.

Enterprise

The About screen, preferably the program specific one, can be used to check version information in Enterprise. If that is not available, the console version of the About screen can be used, as highlighted in the screenshot below.

CMiC Field

The version.jsp of the specific program can be used to check version information in CMiC Field. If that is not available, the version.jsp of the SdMenu can be used instead.

NOTE: The link to the version.txt is available on both.

  1. From the specific program, right click on the screen and select one of the following options depending on your browser:

    • View frame source (Edge/Chrome)

    • This Frame > View Frame Source (Firefox)

  2. From there, note the context-root of the resulting URL:

  3. Follow the steps below to create the URL for the version.jsp:

    1. Take the URL when accessing CMiC Field.

    2. Remove all the text after the Base URL and the environment version:

    3. Add the context-root along with "/version.jsp" to the end of the URL, as shown in the screenshot below, then hit enter:

  4. If the program specific version is not available, you may gather this information for the SdMenu instead. Begin by going to the Application Selector screen:
