We release updates to Sintel Forms On-Prem very regularly, if you are looking to update your version of Sintel Forms please refer to Updating Sintel Forms On-Prem.

 

Sintel Forms On-Prem runs on SharePoint Server 2013, 2016 & 2019. However, as extended support for Sharepoint 2013 ended on April 11 2023, we recommend using SharePoint Server 2016 or 2019.

 

Installing Sintel Forms On-Prem involves adding two SharePoint Solution files as follows:

  1. Sintel.Forms.Onprem.wsp
    This is the main solution file containing the Sintel Forms product download the latest version here
  2. Sintel.Forms.OnPremise.License.wsp (optional)
    This is the secondary solution file that contains your license. Please note that until you add a valid solution license file, the product will run in evaluation mode. To obtain this solution file you must provide your SharePoint Farm ID to us either by emailing it to info@sintelapps.com or submitting a license request form.
In evaluation mode, Sintel Forms is limited to 100 list items. Once a list contains 100 items, you will no longer be able to create or edit items using Sintel Forms. Viewing list items is not affected.

 

Prerequisites

  1. Sintel Forms requires the .NET Framework 4.7.2 (or newer) to be installed on all SharePoint servers in the environment.
  2. If you intend to run an evaluation version of Sintel Forms On-Prem (i.e. a non-production version) you can skip steps 3 and 4
  3. Before proceeding with the installation of Sintel Forms on your live On-Prem environment you must get your SharePoint Farm ID by running the following PowerShell command on your environment. This step is required for Sintel to generate a license solution file for your environment. 
    (Get-SPFarm).Id
  4. Once you have this ID simply email it to us info@sintel.ie and we will generate the Sintel.Forms.OnPremise.License.wsp file and send it back to you.

 

The following instructions assume you have both of the solution files listed above in your C:\ drive, if you have stored them elsewhere simply update the commands as appropriate.

 

Step 1 Copy both solution files (Sintel.Forms.Onprem.wsp and optionally Sintel.Forms.OnPremise.License.wsp) to one of the SharePoint servers in your farm (we recommend using the SharePoint server that hosts the Central Administration site).

Step 2 Launch the SharePoint Management Shell choosing “Run as administrator” and then run the following commands to add and then deploy the solution files.

#Adding the solutions

Add-SPSolution -LiteralPath “C:\Sintel.Forms.Onprem.wsp”

Add-SPSolution -LiteralPath “C:\Sintel.Forms.OnPremise.License.wsp”

#Deploying the solutions

Install-SPSolution -Identity Sintel.Forms.Onprem.wsp -GACDeployment

Install-SPSolution -Identity Sintel.Forms.OnPremise.License.wsp -GACDeployment

That’s it, you now have Sintel Forms installed and your license is applied.

If for any reason you need to retract or remove the solutions you can use the following commands

#retracting the solutions

Uninstall-SPSolution -Identity Sintel.Forms.Onprem.wsp

Uninstall-SPSolution -Identity Sintel.Forms.OnPremise.License.wsp -AllWebApplications

#removing the solution

Remove-SPSolution -Identity Sintel.Forms.Onprem.wsp

Remove-SPSolution -Identity Sintel.Forms.OnPremise.License.wsp
