We just pushed a small patch to the automatic update service to bring Lutheran Service Builder up to version 2.0.0030. This patch resolves several crashes that were reported by users in the first few days’ worth of Builder 2 installations.
To retrieve the patch, simply open Lutheran Service Builder. It should connect to the automatic update service without prompting and ask you to download the update. Follow the on-screen prompts and the Updater will install the patch for you.
More detailed notes on the patch are available here.
We are continuing to monitor difficulties with Builder 2 and are working hard to deliver updates and fixes as quickly as possible while still maintaining a high level of quality. Please leave a comment here, submit a support request, or leave a post on our forums if you encounter any difficulties with Lutheran Service Builder 2.

Funny thing…it won’t run the updater. I tried to push it manually several times and nothing happens. I tried to run the update program from my Start menu and it just takes me to Builder. Any ideas?
I dropped you an email to check a few things.
Can you try closing out Builder 2 and then running the Updater to see what happens?
Hi Ryan,
Good to see you and Bob at Seward in July. Has Builder 2.0 moved beyond the beta phase into general release yet? My copy of Builder updated to 1.90 build 1 today. I’m confused by a quick look at the web. There are references to people apparently running 2.0, but also see references to 1.90. I thought you had indicated in Seward that 2.0 would be released by early November and that current users of Builder would be advised of when & how to update. I haven’t heard a thing. Where are we?
Blessings, Mark

Mark,
Builder 2 is now in full “release” status, and is available only via download on this site. We are releasing the information in “waves” to compensate for the large number of congregations that will have to upgrade. (We are, after all, only two people.)
The update is not automatic and does not release over the updater in Builder 1. We are going to be maintaining Builder 1 and Builder 2 concurrently for the time being in order to give everyone a smooth transition.
If you have any further questions, please let me know and I will be happy to answer them.
