Again, Agreed with everyone else here, You will need alot of updates to be applied as well as possibly rebuilding EVERY computer within the network, you will need SR1 and SR2 as a minimum as well as a few other updates that are required for them two and possibly even CC4UPD001 if it was an early build. Can you post what updates are installed and the server build version. (PM me if you need help getting this) as that may give us a better indication. As said above you will have alot of updating to do which is alot of time, Finally what are the main problems you appear to be having as we had an early version of CC4 so may be able to help where possible. Thanks

Hi all, Can someone help me just check this will work as I am looking to make a few batch files to install some roles and features in 2008R2 Server and have accediently deleted my iso of the 2008R2 server so am downlaoding anew one now but in the mean time does anyone now if the following would work if used in a batch file, I am following several artciles on MS TechNet, What it should install is in brackets...

Does anybody know where I cna get hold of an old version of RM Site Manager Populate DB as in if its any hotfixes / updates as RM will not give me one since they wont support but I really need a copy and it needs to be lower than v1.0.1476.0 if anyone knows where I cna get it from please PM me or post a link to it here. Thanks

I have heard that it doesn't work on CC4.3 but I know somebody who has CC4.3 and installed the regular CC4(CC4.2) version of Auditor and said it worked fine, But I personally wouldn't try it. Although according to RM you wont have long too wait and could possibly field trial it for them. I do feel sorry for most CC4.3 people as it seemed rather rushed to get it out there instead of waiting for it to work as various other things do not work either such as Printer Credits etc... Thanks, Paul

Hello all, Does anyone else here run Auditor 1.2 on CC4 we had it when we upgraded from CC3 to CC4 and am looking to speak to people who have got Auditor on there CC4 Network if so can you PM me or post here your reviews of it as I want to see what other people think of it! Thanks, Paul

A few quick questions, 1. Is Comms and Security Installed and is Service Host working. 2. Why do you want to restore the DB ?? 3. How old is the backup of the DB when was it made. I have a CC4 Network and CC4 is hugely reliant on the DB and make one small little change and BOOM bye bye CC4. I may be able to give you advice but be very careful and do it at your own risk .... Also could you not restore the server from a backup tape if it is bad.

Personally I would create a whole new domain just to remove all the old RM stuff etc, It has been years since I worked with CC3 but the safest option is a whole new domain and at a push recreate the accounts as sometimes the RM side of things adds extra stuff to the account which may cause problems, The My Documents side should be fine if you delete the My Settings Folder and UMFolder.ini My CC3 Knowledge is a liitle out of date so it may not be quite accurate. Paul

Wow, I have to admit I would be the complete opossite of that, I am with Sky with there all in package and find them very good when we moved and had any issues, I rung them up and told them when we were moving and to where etc, sent through the details and on the day of the move the interent got cut off and actiavted straight away, they even sent us an entire new kit for the Internet, As well as that they even activated the TV signal at the new house staright away, Very good I thought and they really were good Again, I don't think I have had a singal issue with there service (TV, Phone or Internet) and there customer service in my opinion. That is all my opionion of them but I really do think they are one of the best companies going, However on the other hand AOL is just awful entirely including there non UK / English Speaking Customer Service Team, That is an entirely diffrent story all together. Thanks

Hello all, I have got a really small but annoying problem on our CC4 DC, Every time you launch the RMMC for some reason it seems to rebuild the RegtreeCache EVERYTIME, It's more annoying than anything as normally it only takes 30 -50 seconds to do but I have no idea why it is doing it and as far as I can tell it is pretty random as to why it has been doing it, Its only on the Server that its doing it. Does anyone know how to stop it from rebuilding it everytime, Thanks, Paul

Have you asked RM to Field Trial CC4UPD109 (I think thats the right one) as they are currently in Field Trial for release in February 2012, It is supposed to be much petter than teh exsiting CC4 Printer Credits as they have had to rewrite evrything (As mentioned above) as teh regualr CC4 one is a very bad Add-On pack and extras for the CC3 one, If you have a valid Support Contract you should be able to Field Trial it just send an email to them (Email is on the Update page or PM me for it) I have to admit teh 2008 CC4 System is much better and well built but i do think they should have waited a little longer and spent more time on it and getting it to work fully than partly. Hopefully though by the time they release CC4SR3 they will make everything work on CC4, However overall it is still a good improvement.

I have most updates as I tend to save a copy as well as run it and delete it etc... I have SR2 but if i were to rollback SR2 is usless without SR1 etc and I undertsnad it is agianst teh rules and I was not asking anyway (Sorry for any confusion etc..) I will try and address support issues but it is out of my hnads Thanks

Thanks, Yes it is the Service Host Account I was thinking of, However if it is random then there is very little hope, Im tempted to revert the server back to the Commissioning Tape we have of when it was first built (Just the C and D Drives but not the Active Directory etc), However I have a few problems with that our CC4 Network was one of the first which needed CC4UPD001 which along with CC4 SR1 I unfortuantely do not have access to these discs and so therefore if I did it would be very hard to update and get to the right version. How would I be able to get hold of CC4UPD001 and CC4 SR1 without a Support Contract ? Or would it be best to just stay how I am and hope to fix the server, @Edu-IT I understand that and tehre are quite a few reasons, Unfortuantely there is nothing I can do at the moment and am just hoping I can get it fixed very soon as the CC4 Network is in even worse state than before. Finally does anyone have acceess to the CC3 to CC4 Upgrade DVD when it was given out a few years ago, If so can you PM me and I can explain in more detail. Thanks All

I have been able to Repair and Uninstall / Reinstall RM Connection Pool and Data Access Layer and a few others, I have installed a few Post-SR2 Updates 092 085 083, There the only PostInstall SR2 Updates I have installed, As for Service Host do you know what account it uses and the details for it (If so can you PM me them for security reasons !!!) Thanks Paul,

Hello Andy, Thanks for your reply, the trouble with doing that is I would loose so much stuff in the proccess of settings and details etc configured after the problem which I need to hold unto that is why restoring is going to be my last resort, also I just can not understand why it fails to install as there should be no reason why it should fail, However thank you very much for your reply.

Hi there, I have made some progress with Comms and Security but still can not get it to install, I have attached the MSI Logfile that I created with it, Data Access Layer is working but only has one load of information in the CONFIG file, However I can manually add the remaining details but am just wondering why it only has one section. Below is what is in Data Access Layer Again any help would be greatly appreciated and as for Comms and Security the file is v2.6.0.0 and is 1.3MB incase that is important commsandsecurity.txt Thanks all

Ahhh yes, Something I would not mind doing ..... Do you have any idea on how to do this then Chris if so cna you post it here or give us a PM, Does anyone else have any more ideas though ? Thanks

I have tried that but apparently the one from the server has more info in and it still does not work that's why im in need of it you see,

Off hand it is about 2MB for Comms and Security, I can confirm this tomorrow when I go to work

Hello all, I have run into a very bad problem and am in a very bad situation, Our Support Contract has unfortunately expired and we are unable to renew it until after xmas (there are a few reasons for this most of which I can not discuss), Recently for one reason or another Comms and Security was uninstalled, To which I only noticed today and as you will know if you have no Comms and Security CC4 is pretty much useless as nothing works no Service Host which therefore means no RMMC etc, Upon reinstalling Comms and Security I get the following message RM.Networks.Comms.Data.DalException: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:5432 ---> RM.Networks.Data.PostgreSQL.Provider.PgException: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:5432 at RM.Networks.Comms.Data.Dal.OpenConnection(DalConnection connection) --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at RM.Networks.Comms.Data.Dal.GetTransaction(DalConnection connection, DalTransactionMode mode, Boolean& usingExisting) at RM.Networks.Comms.Data.DalAdminCommand.ExecuteScalar() I have no idea what to do as i just can not get it to install, Also I believe this is something to do with RM Data Access Layer Config, However can not find that file on any backup C:\Program Files\RM\Connect\Data Access Layer, It says it does not exsit, If possible could you help me out with the comms error and / or if possible could somebody upload there Data Access Layer form the server as I am really desperate to get this solved and until I can we have a very bad functioning network (Worse than before) Thanks all

Hello there, I am trying to install RM Tutor 5 but can not find the NSM.LIC file to use, When i try to install it its says that the evaluation license is to old but if you put the clock back about a year it works, However when i try to input all the details it says it is invalid but it is because I am missing the Authorization Code and i can not find it and no longer have access to the original RM Tutor 5 packages nor the Download or Disc (I can not remember what it came on) and so I have been using Tutor 4 for a while as that still works, If anyone has the authoristaion code or a copy of the NSM.LIC file they could send me then please do, As proof I have Tutor 5 I can send you the License Number but I wont post here incase it gets in the worng hands !!! Thanks alot Paul

Ok so I have got a reply back form RM I have not rung them yet and they have told me to check that the following file is located on the DC "RM.Networks.Comms.Data.Dal.dll.config" But I can not find it and they told me that, That is why the RMMC is so slow and to restore form backup, But that is the problem I can not find that file in any backup and do not know what package it is in so I can reinstall it, I was then told by someone else that the file is only installed on Commissioning a CC4 Server and I would have to pay RM to recommision it (But obviously that is not going to happen as everything still works but its very slow), Does anyone know what that gets installed in or if anyone could perhaps point me in the right direction to get the file Thanks all

Nothing, I never actually thought of getting them to do it, That would appear to be the most logical idea, Thanks for that !!

Ok Thansk for that, I will give them a Call later, Do you think they will give it to me depending on my request ? Thanks

Of course I understand that is somebody can give me a link to it or the relavnt TEC Code (I Belive that is what it is called), If they are not give out then ok Thanks

Thanks for all your advice everyone, I have decided that I will not do it however I Have been told by somone in a similar situation to reset the CC4DB user However I do not know the Username or the Password for it, Can anyone list for me the users and passwords that are needed for the CC4DB or point me in the right direction on RM Support. Thanks Paul
