i've installed FMserver 5.5 on a G5 running OS X 10.5.8 Server.

the installation went fine.

i installed the 5.5v4 patch but an error occured and it couldnt complete the installation. i tried uninstalling and reinstalling FM Server and everytime thats what happens.

but even though the installation of the patch fails

FMSERVER opens up normally but when i start the server it stops after a few seconds/minutes by itself.

afterwards when i try to start it again it says that another instance of FM SERVER is running on the network. but thats impossible!

any one have a clue!

Considering Server 5.5 is coming up on its 10th anniversary, it’s possible that it simply won’t run in more recent versions of OSX.

What was the last OSX version you had it running/v4 patched successfully in? Can you roll back to that version?

I’m sure you’ve heard it before (and will again), but moving to the latest FMS product suite might be in order. 10 years is certainly pushing the edge of end-of-life.

we are in transition right now

we will be upgrading to filemaker server and pro version 10 in a short while.

i guess we'll stick with the old system until then.

server 5.5 runs perfect on os x 10.4.11
