I've got a strange issue preventing me from upgrading to SIM 7.2. I can't upgrade or remove the Server Deployment module because during one of our database moves, the eXpress database was forgotten. we never used this feature so I don't care if it's there (plus it is getting replaced in 7.3).
I can't finish the upgrade to 7.2 since the installer wants to talk to the Deployment module. If i try to run the installer/uninstaller for deployment, it tells me a console is open and will not continue. I've had a ticket opened with support for 3 MONTHS and I am no closer to figuring this out.
I thought of creating a second SIM instance at 7.1, installing Deployment, then taking the eXpress database and putting it in the same instance as the rest of the SIM databases. Will that work, or can i at least point deployment to another DB instance?
Worst case, is there a brute force way to 'detatch' Deployment so the universal installer will not think that I have Deployment installed at all? It's a separate module so there's got to be a way to detach its dependency to SIM/IC.
Help!!
Thanks
