Upgrade 3.0.1 to 3.0.2 SP2a

[ZekeZak]

Hi.
When i try to upgrade from 3.0.1 to 3.0.2 SP2a
i recive this error.
Error API: Dbinit.exe
Error Code: 106

I search NAI knowledge and get solutions that wont work.
Its about security on DB.
I did exactly what was told in the document but it didnt work.
Anyone had the same probs and solved it?

Regards

are you upgrading using a terminal server session?? if so, then it won´t work
check it out and retry the installation (reboot first)

Hi Sephir0th
Our Eposerver is a blade server which i can only gone on remote through a Rilocard or a terminal server session. And now efter trying with the Rilocard i still get the error.
Error API: Dbinit.exe
Error Code: 106

Hi,

You cannot install / upgrade ver 3 via Terminal Services. Only on ver 3.5 beta.

I'm now getting this problem too. It makes no difference whether connected through Terminal Services or actually at the server.

It works through an EPO console installed on another machine though.

No one in tech support seems to have a clue what to do about it.

2.Ensure the same thing for Ms sql services.

Setup shopuld complete succefully.

I did all the suggestions above, but what worked for me was to do the update with the credentials of the user who installed prior versions of ePolicy Orchestrator. After login in as that user the installation went smooth. I hope it helps somebody.

Just to know

I am still using Version 3.0.1 from ePo Orchestartor

I will upgrade today to 3.0.2 Sp2a

If i install Patch 6, must i also install patch 5 and 4 ?
