Posted on by Amit Thakkar

Hi All

I have one GP10 App server running OS Windows2003 Server  and second SQL2005 server running OS   Windows2003 Server.

1) Installation of MR completed Sucessfully.(Prequesit ask for MSdatabaseengine.EXE)downloaded and  installed

2) IIS installed and Restarted server.

3) While running Configure Management Report -->selected GP Legacy

4) Gave require paramter for server\instance 'sa' user id and password for creating new MR database

5) Application server: port 4712

6) Dynamics GP Connection information

Databaseserver : servername\instance , username 'sa' and password given (tried copy paste from text file)

But while selecting Database Error message " Couldn't retireve the list of available databases: The connection attempt failed'

 

I have change GP conection information to various other servers but getting same error message . May some component missing? or

If any one has experienced of installation of MR2012 CU6 on GP10(Windows2003 server) and SQL2005(Windows2003 server),

Please share your experience to complete installation.

Thanks

Amit

    you are right Christopher that GP10 will not work for MR2012

    I found the same information on other site as well.

    I believe the following is true, but if someone disagrees then please post.

    1) GP2012 (GP12) is not released yet

    2) Typically MS supports a version of GP until 1 year after the release of 2nd version newer.   Typical would be support GP10 for one year after release of GP2012.

    3) FRx support is going away Sept 2012.

    4) Management Reporter will NOT work with GP10.

    Therefore by ending support for FRx, MS is actually ending the life of GP10 in Sept 2012.   Obviously the key statement above is item 4.

    Am I seeing things right?

    Management Reporter is not compatible with GP 10. Below is an extract from the Microsoft Installation guide (www.microsoft.com/.../details.aspx)

    Legacy data provider

    Microsoft Dynamics GP client  ï‚· Earlier versions of Microsoft Dynamics GP must be updated to Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010 or Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013. ï‚· Drill to Dynamics requires Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010 (version 11.0.1860 or later) or Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Service Pack 1.
