The version compatible with IPS 4.7.3 is currently pending approval.

Thank you! Please be advised I have moved this to a ticket so that we can better investigate this for you. Further communication will be provided via email.

Yep not sure what happened but re ran the upgrade and all fine 

Hmm so my 6 monthly fee of $60 has now gone to an annual fee of $235.  $5 short of doubling in cost. 
I've been here since moving across from Ikon and supported IPS in early days financially, paid for lifetime licences which I've begrudgingly accepted would not help IPS survive further down the line. 
My boss will be on me like a ton of bricks with that increase and with no email support (are you kidding me?) - I am, after 19 years, having to think can we continue.   I've always had first rate support from IPS, coupled with a friendly relationship with Matt who's helped me out plenty of times, but I've also let them use my server to test MSSQL drivers and IIS issues when they hosted/worked with the likes of AMD.  To turn around to that degree is a proper kick in the nuts.
I understand they have to pay the bills, but we all do.
A doubling of my licence fee would be a hard one to take on its own but the removal of email support as well?  That is not just a small issue. 

I should update it by tomorrow. 👍

I dont seem to be able to get to your admin area at present due to an issue on your server. Are you using windows server? If so, its likely this that is causing you issues unfortunately. You might find the following helpful
 
 

Excellent. Glad to hear you got the issue resolved

Hi Marc, I actually followed that link after posting and added in the environmental variable/rebooted and it seems to have created the key now

Bottom line: You didn't communicate these changes effectively at all, and you didn't learn from the last time(s) you didn't communicate effectively.
What will the next surprise be that you don't communicate effectively to your customers be?
