also.

Thanks, James

I just finished installing V6 on a new PC at work, I've only installed 
this version from the DVD, but have never had any problems. This is my
4th 
install of it, (previous work PC, home PC and laptop) it does taka a
long 
time, but no errors, As suggested in other posts, I let the updates run 
overnight. We do have the "updater" update loaded locally on a network 
drive. With only 5-6 people here to use it and PC's not updated that
often 
We probably won't make a local mirror of the main upgrade set. Now I
need 
to show the Guys who build PC's how to do this for the other 3 in my
group 
who are getting updated PC's finally.

Re: [WDSCI-L] installing v6






This is deadly serious.
It is incredible the number of threads concerning installation problems.

I have also been campaiging for an upgrade from V5.1. As I am the only 
user
I realize that this is just not possible.
I have just been given the go ahead to train the rest of the team and 
teach
them all I know. When we are all operationnal together, the argument for
upgrading will have more weight.

I am afraid that these apparent nightmares in the installation process 
will
put an end to the use of WDSc in our company. We are currently about 20
developers. It's no easy decision to install WDSc on each PC. From the
administrator's point of view, why waste all that time when PDM works ?

What can we do to ensure (when the time comes ) that the thing installs
correctly?
