lol, alright thanks for your help with this, I appreciate you putting this out.

I sort of have an idea of how it works .. I was running it from my desktop as administrator. Can it not detect 2010 VL if it's not installed to C:\?

 

This is about Windows Small Business Server 2011 Essentials

Wow timesurfer!
This is most definitely a well supported solution! Thanks!

First of all, your "adjustments for EditionID = ServerSolution," SBS 2011 Essentials MOD Trilogy works great! I just did the regular IR5 install and haven't tried the MPC.

Thanks for making the needed mods to your code.

I compared the "OEM Trilogy 3.7" and the "SBS 2011 Essentials MOD Trilogy" using WINMERGE.

For my understanding, is the "ServerSolution" key used in the OEM Trilogy geared to support WHS 2011?

Thanks again for your rapid assistance!

 

Windows Small Business Server 2011 Essentials

I think I'm getting it now, timesurfer.

At the very basic level, I don't really need to climb into all the code, I'm just very happy that it works!

However, it can be useful to have a rudimentary understanding so that I can ask semi-intelligent questions if--down the road--problems emerge.

So let me see if I can ask a better question.

Prior to providing you with the new "ServerSolution" SBS Essentials "VVWPG" key, you were using a"Y7GVM" key.
To what OS was the old "Y7GVM" key supposed to apply?
I ask this since with the new Trilogy code the "Y7GVM" key no longer exists.

And finally, an FYI. I forgot to mention that before applying your solution, SBS Essentials gave you 3 rearms of 60 day grace periods. After applying your solution, you now get 5 rearms of 60 days or 300 days of trail usage!. Pretty cool, huh?!

 

I was just thinking the same thing...and of course the reply.

 

Very nice tool.

However, in 3.7 I had to use the MPC.
The 'C:IR5' command would not work.

Was that fixed in 3.8?

 

I don't believe there are any changes between 3.7 and 3.8 that would cause IR5 to stop working. The main reason that IR5 does not work on your system has to do with how your system is setup (partitioning is usually the main cause). When IR5 does not work, you should use MPC (as you did). Timesurfer included MPC for those of us that try IR5 and it does not work. The main thing is that, regardless of whether you use IR5 or MPC, it works in the end.

 

Hello Timesurfer,
I used your IR5 script for over a year without problems in a office PC, but 2 days ago it stopped working and I don't understand why.
The script ALWAYS report "Right click Trilogy and run as administrator" but I run the script as administrator !!

This is the part of the script that seems do not work properly

The %windir%\TrilogyAdminTest folder was created, but the errorlevel check seems locked on >0 and the command
rd %windir%\TrilogyAdminTest is not executed

Any ideas?

 

Alright thanks.
I don't remember what it exactly said, but it went along these lines: 'C:IR5' is an invalid command.

Maybe my drive letter changed in RE?

Never the less, the MPC worked, and you have saved me

 

I know
Had just realized that AFTER I posted it.

Thanks though.
