SIMS Workstation Installed on Server 2019?

[bjohnny42]

Has anyone got SIMS installed on Windows Server 2019 yet. Only need the workstation element of it. Solus is failing with errors despite all firewalls being off. Would a manual install work?

[DJ-1701]

Strangely I have always had issues when turning the firewall off and using SIMS. Turning it on and adding these settings works on Windows 10:

 

52965:TCP (SIMS Solus-3-DS)

52966:TCP (SIMS Solus-3-Agent)

8739:TCP (SIMS Solus-3-Agent-UI)

 

And allowing this program:

C:\Program Files\Solus3\AgentService\Sims.Solus3.Agent.UI.exe

 

That should be all it needs on 2019 as it's just the server version of Windows 10.

We went old school.... Forget Solus

Download the latest CD and then manually run.

 

UpgradeFolder\Setups\Files

 

SimsApplicationSetup.exe

 

Our Setups folder on the server has an old version of setups files.. Seems to do the trick.

We have it in our RDS Server (Server 2019) this was installed using SOLUS

I’ve got it on two Server 2019 RDS hosts and it works without issue, deployed using SOLUS 3.

Have you installed sims workstation pre requisites.

Run simsinfrastructuresetup.exe checking sims workstation in the install prompt wizard

 

Check fms workstation also if you plan to deploy fms

 

Then try rerun setup from solus. Otherwise run simsinst.exe manually

 

These can all be found in s:\sims\setups

An addition pre req you need to enable .net 3.5 as well as 4

Deployed to our remoteapp server via solus. no issues

Sims is not supported on 2019 server until the spring update.

Sims is not supported on 2019 server until the spring update.

That's if you want to run SIMS server side in server 2019. client works fine on server 2019.

Works fine here

Is that Windows Server 2019 or SQL Server 2019? Or both?

Sims have no plans as yet to support sql server 2019, they are still in the process of optimising queries for sql 2016.

 

I think sql 2019 support may come in 2021 but may be by then sims will be fully online [emoji1787][emoji1787]
