From time to time, Maplesoft issues corrections and enhancements to Maple T.A. in the form of downloadable hotfixes which can be applied to your existing Maple T.A. installation. A hotfix is a zip file (for Windows) or compressed tar file (for Linux or Solaris) containing a readme, a script and a small number of replacement files.
Note: Hotfixes must be installed sequentially. For example, to install hotfix 600-003, you must first install hotfixes 600-001 and 600-002. If a Tomcat restart is required by one or more of the hotfixes being applied, stop Tomcat, apply all hotfixes in order, and then restart Tomcat.
Installation
To install the hotfixes, follow the instructions in the appropriate readme file. A copy of these instructions is also included in the download.
