 |
|
I came across a slight WinVista installation problem that I have been able to remedy but I am not too comfortable with the answer.
*Please keep in mind that my AccessManager2.057 on a portable USB Flash Drive is able to launch properly with WinVista.*
When I attempted to install a copy of AccessManager in WinVista, I got a prompt that I need dotNET Version1.1xxxx.
*Please keep in mind that Windows Vista ships with dotNET Version2.0 already installed*
I was finally forced to install the OLDER version of dotNET in order to be able install AccessManager in WinVista.
{Version 1.1xxx from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=262D25E3-F589-4842-8157-034D1E7CF3A3&displaylang=en}
Question: Why would I need to install an older version of dotNET for AccessManager to operate inside WinVista that already is featured with a much newer version of dotNET???? |

| .NET 2.0 and 1.1 are not compatible. AM 2 requires .NET 1.1. The next major release of AM will use .NET 2.0 or 2.1. |

Is dotNET v1.1 embedded within the portable (USB flash drive) AccessManager?
Especially since WinVista has no problems booting to the portable AM, without requiring the installation of dotNET v1.1 before hand. |

| AM requires .NET 1.1 to be on the PC that is running Windows. |

Incorrect statement >> | Admin wrote: | | AM requires .NET 1.1 to be on the PC that is running Windows. |
I successfully used my USB CompactFlash Portable AccessManager with WinVista at least 5 times (over a period of a week), without installing the above referenced dotNETv1.1
It just got quite cumbersome to continually employ the USB drive with WinVista (beta2) and finally was forced to attempt to install a fresh copy of AccessManager in WinVista when I was confronted with the message that AM could not continue installation until dotNETv1.1 was installed in system.
This dilemma was what forced me to post this topic.
Please re-read original post, as it still accurately represents my finding(s). |

| .NET 1.1 is not embedded in the Portable Media installation of AM. |
