SoftGrid Management Console won't install on Windows Server 2003 with SP2

  • Article

Just a quick note to let everyone know that we've received a few reports about our management console not installing on a Windows Server 2003 computer if Service Pack 2 has been installed.  There is no true interoperability issue, it just appears that we don't properly detect a supported SP level so the installation of the management console fails. 

To work around this, be sure that the management console is installed prior to installing Windows Server 2003 SP2.  Currently there are no other workarounds but we're continually investigating potential solutions, and this will also be resolved with the upcoming Service Pack 1 release for SoftGrid 4.1 which is due sometime in the first half of this year.

We apologize for the inconvenience and will post further information here once known.
