Summary

Users may be unable to download the Jama Connect Interchange™ self-hosted installation package from the Help Center article. In most cases, the issue is caused by a broken or expired download link, an outdated password, or a package transition between self-hosted releases.

Symptoms

- The download page returns an error after the link is selected.
- The package prompts for a password, but the password used does not work.
- A link received earlier by email no longer provides access to the package.

Cause

This issue typically occurs when:

- the published package link has been updated (this happens when a new release package is added
- the password saved in an older communication is no longer current
- a new Jama Connect Interchange™ self-hosted package is in the process of being published, and the Help Center article has not yet been updated with the latest package

Resolution

Diagnosing the Issue

Confirm that the problem is with the package link itself and not with the local browser session:

1. Open the download article in a private or incognito browser window.
2. Select the package download link again.
3. If the file still does not download, note the exact error shown.
4. Verify that you are using the password displayed next to the active download link in the article, not a password from an older email or prior release.

If the article link fails in multiple browser sessions, the issue is likely with the published package link or associated password.

Download the Active Installation Package

To resolve the issue:

1. Open the current Jama Connect Interchange™ Self-Hosted Upgrade Guidance and Resources article.
2. Use the 'Latest Version Upgrade Package (Download)' link listed in that article.
3. Use the password displayed next to the current download link
4. If you previously received a link by email, do not rely on that older link if it no longer works. Use the Help Center article as the source of truth for the current package and password.

If You Need a Newer Self-Hosted Version

A newer cloud release may be available before the matching self-hosted installation package is posted. If you need a specific Jama Connect Interchange™ self-hosted version:

1. Confirm the version you intend to install.
2. Check whether that self-hosted package is already published in the Help Center article.
3. If the version is not yet listed, wait for the article to be updated with the new package and password before proceeding.

After the Download Completes

Once the package has been downloaded successfully:

1. Save the installation package in a secure location.
2. Proceed with installation using the self-hosted install steps.
3. Apply the license file after installation (required before first login).
4. Use the default first-login credentials if needed:
- Username: `interchange_admin`
- Password: `interchange_password`
