Error installing latest version

I get the following error when installing the latest version of StrataFrame on a clean machine. I wish that I could give you more info, but there's none available.

Just following up - it would appear that the problem has to do with case-sensitivity in the portion of the code that builds the tables - I can install on a case-insensitive version of SQL Server, but not on a case-sensitive version.

Hopefully, this helps - I do need to run on a case sensitive version.

Thanks,

In your C:\Program Files\Common Files\MicroFour\StrataFrame folder, you should be able to find the log file that was generated by the install... it should have more details of the exception that was encountered during the install.  It seems odd that the collation of the database should affect the deployment of the data.

Ben:

That solved it - turns out that my restore program copied an old backup of the StrataFrame.mdf. When the new install tried to create it an error occurred. Enhancement request for future would include easy access to the log file when an install fails.

Thanks,
