BP Install fails for GP 2013

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

When I try to install Business Portal for GP 2013, the process fails. I am posting some of the error messages below.

I set up the Business Data Connectivity Service Application and it is started. I called It BDC. Am I supposed to create an External Content Type? I assumed the Business Portal install would create this. I can't find any documentation from Great Plains regarding the Business Data Connectivity Service and exactly what needs to be set up for the Business Portal Install.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

    RE: BP Install fails for GP 2013

    Once I added my user to the Farm Administrators group it installed correctly.  I would like to note however, that BUILTIN/Administrators was already part of the Farm Administrators group.  My user was a Domain Admin which was already part of the BUILTIN/Administrators group so I am not sure why I had to add my user.

    Thanks for your help!!

    Stephanie,

    This error can be caused if you are trying to install BP on a domain controller. Is this web server a domain controller?

    I would also like you to add your account you are installing BP with to the Farm Administrators group in SharePoint Central Administration.  This can be found under Central Administration -> Security -> Mange the farm administrators group.

    Thanks

    Rob
