Error with system requirements?

Post by nruessmann » Tue Mar 09, 2010 5:07 pm

I just downloaded Fortress 2.0.3 and tried to install it on Windows 2000 (SP4). The installer came up with an error message "SourceGear Fortress Server cannot be installed on systems earlier than Windows XP x86".

On the download page http://www.sourcegear.com/fortress/downloads.html the system requirements say that Windows 2000 is supported.

I downloaded file FortressServer_2_0_3_18802.msi

Did I download the wrong file, or is there an error with the system requirements in the download page?

The client can run on Windows 2000, but the current server version cannot. The problem is that the 3.5 .NET framework is required and Windows 2000 can't run that framework.

I checked the requirements and it doesn't list Windows 2000 for the server portion.

The Fortress server is supported on both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of these Windows operating systems:
Windows XP Professional
Windows Server 2003
Windows Vista (Business or Ultimate)
Windows Server 2008
