Quick and dirty installl guide for 2 servers(app and DB)

Yahoo Archive

Honestly, the install guide is one the Epicor's better documents anymore. I
don't mean to sound like a smart ass, but there aren't really any major
issues with it. If you take your time and read everything you should end up
with a clean working install.

Now if you trying for something more exotic than a normal install
--splitting your app and db server, loading multiple versions side-by-side,
etc-- I retract my earlier statements.

So I am trying to go through the guide for my development servers and I keep
running into road blocks.


Does anyone have a quick write up on how to install epicor? I will go to the
manual for clarification but i forgot in which order to install which parts
on which server.

please anyone? this is driving me crazy.

This is for Epicor 9.05.606.

You can download the install guide, but that guide is not correct.
There are a bunch of steps left out, the steps are out of order.
Data block sizes are not spelled out.
UOM will cause you pain, or just not work at all.
We have be working on upgrading to epicor 9 since perspectives last year and luckily have a full test server to try it on and find all the errors.
If I am correct you have to go 9.05 then 9.06 or else it won't work at all.
I don't recall exactly, since I personally only went through it once and it blew up in my face because all the steps that were incorrect or missing.
My boss has been working on it and correcting the install guide since then. Plus each step we clone the drive off so we can go back on if it doesn't work.
Hopefully we will have a corrected install guide to give to Epicor when we go to perspectives next year.
