[cisco-voip] Windows and MS Dotnet gurus out there

[Dana Tong]

So the actual outcome was to installed TMS 15.11 on Windows 2019. The installer upgraded the DB upon install.
The key was to import the DB prior to install and let the installer detect the database.

Err that won't work sorry. Turns out the old server is 2008. And I can't find a TMS version that is supported on both 2019 and 2008.

Are there any tools to migrate the DB file?

Cheers
Dana

Sorry. Not thinking. Maybe I need to upgrade the old server to TMS 15.11 then do the new build and migration.

Let me give this a go.

Hi all,

I Have a customer with an old Windows 2012 server with Cisco TMS 15.4.4 installed.
We are wanting to migrate to a new Server 2019 and SQL Express 2017.

The install and upgrade guide says to install the current version first, restore the database and then upgrade to TMS 15.11.

The problem is, is that TMS 15.4.4 says it won't install because dotnet 4.5 is not installed. However Windows server 2019 comes with dotnet 4.7 installed.
It's supposed to be compatible with versions down to 4.0 however TMS fails the validation and doesn't install.
There is a bunch of published bugs and the work-around is to uninstall dotnet 4.7 and then install 4.5. However this doesn't work and basically screws up the system and then you have to use DISM to re-install dotnet.

Has anyone ever seen this and has a suggestion on how to get TMS 15.4.4 to install? Or to get dotnet 4.5 to install? Dotnet 4.5 / or 4.0 won't install because it says 4.7 is installed.

Cheers
Dana
