The -fetch-full-installer flag has a sub-flag: -full-installer-version which allows you to download a specific version. During my testing in the Catalina beta version I was able to download 10.15, 10.14.6, 10.14.5, and 10.13.6.

In most cases, the following URL will work for PCs and Macs on the first try. If it gives you any errors, please see below for suggested fixes. After you install successfully, move down to the next testing step.

Download Mac Os Sierra Installer App

To install the Sierra Desktop Application (a.k.a. 'SDA') on staff computers go to the following Maine InfoNet Support Center link and choose the appropriate install URL for your consortium. Please note that you will need to login to the Support Center in order to download the install file.

Choose the installer file for your Operating System (OS). The installer page may try to run a java applet to identify your OS, but you can ignore/not run the applet if you wish and simply select the correct OS installer.

You may be asked if you want to allow the java application and/or popups in your browser, and you should set these to allow (allow and remember if possible). Then you should be guided through the installation.

If prompted for server location, enter minerva.maine.edu

If you have errors or snags, please see the Possible Errors section below for guidance.

Second: Verify install

Look for the icon called 'Sierra Desktop App' either on your desktop, Start Menu or computer drive. Open the file and log in with your username and password. If you do not have one or are unsure if you do, please submit a ticket to support.maineinfonet.org.

Please note: Sierra may take a few minutes (literally, minutes) to log in. It will appear to have stopped working–the busy mouse cursor will stop and the text on the Sierra window will go grey, but it is honestly still working. If it hangs for a long time while mentioning a particular.jar file at the bottom of the screen, just try closing it and opening again.

POSSIBLE ERRORS

Download Sierra Installer App

Installs but won't open

  1. Try right-clicking on the icon and picking 'Run as Administrator' from the menu.
  2. Try completely uninstalling the program (including deleting the folder it created) and re-installing.
  3. Is the computer behind a firewall of some sort that is blocking access? Sierra needs access to some unusual ports that Millennium did not need–specifically ports 63000, 63100,64000,and 64001.
  4. To check if it's the connection: Is there a nearby computer that is able to open it correctly? If so, can you plug this computer into that internet jack?
  5. Does it briefly open and close any windows or give any error messages when you try to run it? If so, submit a ticket explaining what you see.
  6. Try using another browser to download the installer. Errors have been reported with Internet Explorer 10.
  7. Mac users may need to go to Security & Privacy>General>Allow apps downloaded from: and select Anywhere.

  1. Go to your Security & Privacy panel.

  3. Make sure that Anywhereis selected.
  4. See if you can run or download the install again.

  • 63000
  • 63100
  • 64000
  • 64001
