Fortress 1.0.6 installation on Vista64

Post by bobmitton » Wed Mar 04, 2009 12:26 pm

I'm trying to move my Fortress installation to a new server. The new server is Vista 64 Ultimate with SQL Server 2008. I've already moved the databases over to SQL Server. IIS is installed and running. When I try to run the MSI, however, I get: "Fatal Error: Installation ended prematurely because of an error." No other information. I've tried some of the tips found here in the forums, including running the MSI as Administrator. Same error. What am I missing?

I would recommend you try Fortress 1.1.4 instead. It would be a free upgrade for you and that has a 64-bit installer. Your clients will have to upgrade to Fortress 1.1.4 also.

If you really prefer to stick with Fortress 1.0.6, then instructions are in this KB article: Installing Vault on 64-bit Operating Systems. Use the same instructions as for Vault 4.0.x.
