Release Notes for Helix Admin, the Helix Administration Tool (P4Admin) Version 2024.4 Introduction Helix Admin is an end-user application designed for Helix Administrators. You can use Helix Admin with any Helix Core Server at Release 2018.2 or higher. P4Admin can be launched from P4V or can be invoked directly from the command line. Perforce numbers releases YYYY.R/CCCCC, for example 2002.2/30547. YYYY is the year; R is the release of that year; CCCCC is the bug fix change level. Each bug fix in these release notes is marked by its change number. Any build includes (1) all bug fixes for all previous releases and (2) all bug fixes for the current release up to the bug fix change level. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Important Platform End-of-Life Notice P4Admin no longer offers 32-bit builds as of 2021.2. This specifically impacts the following platforms: Windows 7 for Intel (x86) Windows 8.1 for Intel (x86) Windows 10 for Intel (x86) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Licenses Licenses are detailed in the following page: https://filehost.perforce.com/perforce/r24.4/doc/user/p4v_license.txt -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Important Notes "Applets" for P4Admin are no longer supported. This is because the P4V WebKit-based P4JsApi (the JavaScript API for Visual Tools) has been officially retired. It is replaced by P4VJS, which is a WebEngine-based solution that supports HTML5. More information, including a user guide and a conversion guide, is available on our website for those wishing to port their existing programs. Helix MFA is no longer installed by default. Customers are encouraged to evaluate the Helix Authentication Service and set up the 2FA step via their preferred Identity Provider (IdP). Any customer that wishes to continue using Helix MFA can install it separately from the Helix Visual Client (P4V). The unsupported P4V command syntax, "p4v -cmd" is discontinued as of P4V 2020.2. The actions available with the '-cmd' flag are replaced by P4VC commands. The "p4v -s" and "p4v -t" functionality will continue to be supported. For more information about P4VC, see: https://www.perforce.com/manuals/p4v/Content/P4V/advanced_options.p4vc.html -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Platform Notes Linux Ubuntu 22.04 requires an installation of the libxcb-cursor0 libraries to be able to run P4Admin 2023.4. This package can be installed by running: '$ sudo apt install libxcb-cursor0' P4Admin has a dependency on the 'libxcb-xinerama0' package, a XCB binding for multiple monitor support. On Ubuntu, this package is sometimes either not installed or not installed properly. If libxcb-xinerama0 is not found, P4Admin will throw an error at startup : qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found. This package can be restored by running : '$ sudo apt install --reinstall libxcb-xinerama0' This package can be installed by running : '$ sudo apt install libxcb-xinerama0' On CentOS, if necessary, these packages can be installed by running the following commands: $ sudo yum install libxcb-xinerama.so.0 $ sudo yum install xcb-util-* Windows As of relase 2019.2, P4Admin started linking with QtWebEngine framework in order to offer the P4VJS feature. This Qt framework requires the computer that P4Admin is running on to have a graphics driver that provides OpenGL 2.1 or higher. The default driver for Windows 10 is OpenGL 1.1, but most new graphics cards provide a more recent OpenGL version that is 2.1 or higher. See the following KB article if encountering problems launching P4Admin from a Remote Desktop session (RDP) https://community.perforce.com/s/article/17508 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Supported Platforms Microsoft Windows 10 (1809 or later) (x86_64) 11 (x86_64) macOS 11, 12, 13, 14 (x86_64 and arm64) Linux (x86_64) Red Hat 8.8, 9.2 Ubuntu 22.04 openSUSE 15.5 The above platforms are tested and subject to regression testing on a frequent basis. Errors or bugs discovered in these platforms are prioritized for correction. Any platform not listed above is not actively tested by Perforce. P4Admin might run on platforms that are not actively tested. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Installation Microsoft Windows 1. From the Perforce downloads page, select the appropriate Windows platform installer type. The P4V installer includes P4Admin. 2. To launch the installer, run the installation either by accepting the prompt in your Internet browser or by executing the downloaded file directly from the download location. 3. The Windows installer for P4V may install Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables. If it does, you may have to restart your system. macOS 1. From the Perforce downloads page, select the Mac installer and save the file to disk. 2. To launch the installer, double-click the downloaded file. Linux 1. From the download page, select the appropriate Linux distribution option. For Linux platforms, P4V (includes P4Admin) is packaged in a compressed tar file. 2. To install, uncompress the file with gzip and extract the runtime files into the directory of your choice. You can create a symbolic link that points to the P4V executable script. For example, to create the link where $cd /foo $gunzip p4v.tgz $tar xvf p4v.tar $ln -s foo/p4v-2011.1-123456/bin/p4admin/usr/local/bin/p4admin p4admin -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Technology Preview features: Features offered in Technology Preview are experimental and not guaranteed to always work as expected.
