1638.0. "Mismatched Software Pre-requisites cause failure" by NEMAIL::BYRNE (The Red Menace) Tue Oct 20 1992 20:28

I'm trying to upgrade ALL-IN-1 2.4 to ALL-IN-1 3.0.  The installation fails
due to "mismatched software pre-requisites".  

Before this attempted upgrade, I upgraded VMS from 5.1 to 5.5 (this isn't a 
customer system, so I didn't track down and install the 5.5 patches yet).
The VMS upgrade seemed successful.

I have a very "vanilla" (as opposed to rum-raisin) system.  I have no Group
Conferencing, no Message Router, no DTR, no DECwindows.  I should mention 
that an old version of Notes is on there (2.0).  FMS is at 2.4. The hardware 
is a MicroVAX 2000.

I see other references to mismatched software in this conference, but the
descriptions don't sound like the problem I am having.  Anyone have any
ideas?

    Eileen,
    
    Repeating the installation with OPTIONS D will prove what it is
    but my guess (and have you ever known me to be right?) is NOTES
    
    Either Upgrade Notes to 2.1 or hide the NOTES$LIBRARY logical and
    object library and all will continue happily ever after.
    
    Regards,

1638.2Have you installed SYS$SHARE:UVMTHRTL.EXE ?GIDDAY::SETHIMan from DownunderWed Oct 21 1992 06:2515

    NOTE: FDVMSG.EXE and FDVSHR.EXE will be in place following the
    installation of FMS 2.4.  SYS$SHARE:UVMTHRTL.EXE must be installed for
    a Miro VAX II or a Miro VAX 2000.
    
    Can you please make sure that the pre-installation checks included the
    installation of installing the above image for the Miro VAX.

1638.3It was a Notes executableNEMAIL::BYRNEThe Red MenaceMon Oct 26 1992 17:3611
    Sunil - Yes, all appropriate images were installed
    
    Andrew.D  - You *were* right. It was Notes.  There were no Notes
    logicals defined, but it seemed that the very presence of the 
    old Notes executable was causing heartburn.  I deleted that EXE
    (which I didn't need) and all is fine.  I have other problems, but
    they will be under a separate note.
    
    Thanks,

1638.4Well STARS used to tell meAIMTEC::WICKS_ALiverpool 4 Norwich 1Mon Oct 26 1992 18:0714
    Eileen,
    
    There was a STARS article on this that prompted my guess but I have
    no idea how to access STARS anymore since we changed over to a new
    system this weekend that looks like it predates TDMS!
    
    One might dare to suggest that the misleading error message from the
    Install was an "oversight in the design" that it would be nice to
    correct in a PFR but of course I wouldn't say that in front of GAP.
    
    regards,
