Hi,
I´m trying to upgrade from porting set 07.03 to 07.04 and choosing the local installation process (the only one that is available) the setup application reports a hostname for the machine that is running baan diferent from the real name of the machine. Pressing Next the setup procedure for the porting set fails.
The hostname that setup application reports is an old machine that was replaced by the actual one.
What I understood from the reading of the porting set installation instructions is that this is the Master Application Server name but the document doesn´t say anything about changing it.
Does anyone know anything about this
Thank you

Check the server name license6.1 file in $BSE/lib .

Hi,

search and replace the hostname in $BSE\lib\install\BaanERPServer.info.
Start the Installer again.

Hi again,
The licence6.1 file is ok and is pointing to the license server that is the same machine where I'm trying to install the porting set.
I also took a look on the BaanERPServer.info file and changed all the hostnames to match the name of the actual machine but it´s still not working.
Any more clues?
Thank you

I have had the same problem, untill now this solves the problem:

Remove c:\Documents and Settings/<user>/Local Settings/Temp/*, create empty ${BSE}/lib/install directory.

I already complained with SSA that this new installer is worse. You can't install a new environment with this installer, you need to install 7.1d.05 first than upgrade.

Wish I had a *nix system, it can be so easy....

Thank you Han,
Following your tip I managed to install the porting set although is still reporting "Windows registrtion error" at the end of the installation process.
Strangely the installer states that the process failed but I checked that the porting set is the new one and it´s working fine.
