fun with 7.2

OK, I have a Solaris server at home (2 processors, 4 GB RAM, 100 GB disk, Solaris 10).

I had TS 7.1 loaded (using a SQL server DB). Tried to upgrade, things seemed smooth, did the reboot, ran the post install job, it stayed for hours at 88% complete. No error logs changed or any useful information.

Pretty much SOL at that point.

I decided to manually uninstall TS. On Solaris it is not that hard (except you need to remove the iwovfs reference with smf).

I reinstalled everything and the post install step failed (but at least did not hang). I rebooted and reran the installer to reinstall but it restarted the post reboot step and this time it completed.

Next up was Admin console and CSSDK Soap. Those worked.

So I think I am set, though I suspect I will be redoing everything because I want to download mysql and run TS with a local DB instead of having to start a PC.

Awesome Andy, Can I get VPN access to it?

If it did not heat up my office when I had it on, I would get a public IP and put it on the internet.

I got it off ebay a year ago for about $100.

I use http://www.no-ip.com to remotely access applications such as teamsite running on home machine. it s free for 1 public IP and very easy to setup.

Hi Nipper,

I am currently facing the same problem. trying to upgrade from 7.1 to TS 7.2.
O/S: RED HAT ENTERPRISE LINUX 5.3

Where I am hung is at step 4 (component details). Apart from application container and foundation libraries, the rest of the options are disabled.
Just to give you a little background, when I first performed the installation it showed me all these options enabled, but that installation failed at step 6(configuration details) or 7(process confirmation) - I cant remember exact step, but after that step it failed because the iwpkg was corrupted. We downloaded a new iwpkg file and performed installation again, only this time it came up with those options disabled. We then restored the entire system from a back-up location just to make sure everything is clean. We again performed the installation but even this time the options are disabled.

Let me know if you can help.
