Alexandre

Thanks Alexandre,

after your explanation, now,it is clear for me that i dont need any mysql server installation.. but i could not understand how to check windows start,parameters?

msu,

a stand-alone PM5 works with MSDE (a lighter version of MS SQL Server 2000); you should not have any problem installing this software, as it is a part of the PM5 set-up process

can you check in Windows Start, Parameters, Install software panel if something is making troubles?

Hi there,

I have tried to install P6 stand-alone on my customers’s PCs today; it’s a long process indeed, but with 2Gb RAM it works;

Problem is that when I launch Project Management, I am requested to enter a "Registration code" that my PAR would calculate from the software Serial Number and some "Installation code"; there is nothing about that in the PDF Files.

Please somebody explain, I am lost in the middle of the Indian Ocean, and no help available here

Thanks

Alexandre

hope it help



friendly mimoune





ps; happy to be here again

pls help me also in installation, i have a cd but already expired, its a student version from july5 to july19, how can i use it for unlimited time? im sure there is a crack on it. my email is engr_fdu@yahoo.com

P5 installation is little complex but once u did it, its nothing like rocket science.

First install microsoft SQL server

Run P5 setup from cd

Select stand alone installation option

it’s easy, I’ve just installed a stand-alone P6 yesterday and I haven’t sweat, but first you’ll need a registration key, it will be provided by your supplier; but yet, i’m still not convinced if it’s working properly.

Hi Dieter,



Thanks for your help.

Hi

you better describe what you did and the error message you received.

Some basics for the stand-alone P5:

- You need local administrator rights, because P5 will write into the registry

- Read the tested configurations first. (I’m at home, but as far as I remember it is on the documentation-cd under technical...)

- As for other installations: close all other applications.

- Keep in mind where you have your license file, you’ll be asked for it.

- Name of the SQL-Server in general is the name of your pc.

- When during the installation you are asked for a database password, leave it as it is.

- First access to P5: User admin, Pwd: admin then create some new users following the admin guide on your documentation cd.



Server installation to be performed by your it-staff - give them the admin-guide.



Good luck!

Dieter

Dieter,



Thanks so much for your assistance!

Hi Beth

On the documentation CD you can find "P3toPrimavera_v50.pdf". It is reliable and contains many good advices.

To the EPS: There is no ideal EPS. It depends on your need and the structure of your business. But there are two items:

- Heritage of access-rights: If you have rights for a node, you have those rights for all items below that node as well.



- Budget: Your top-down budget planning is best along the EPS.

Good luck!

Dieter

Hi Ulysses,



I went to P5 training but they did not cover the conversion of data process. They just covered basic function like adding activities, setting up activity codes, etc. I imported my P3 project but it wants me to set up an EPS. What advice can you give me for setting this up and the advantages. Anything I need to look for/set up now that will benefit me in the future? Any other new features I need to be aware of? Thanks so much.
