Hi Alan

Are you referring to the patch level in the db script? If this is a new server installation you don't need to worry about it- just accept the defaults (hit <enter>). The only thing you need to do is create a password for the omero root account.

Ah, good point...what am I talking about?

After running bin\omero config set and setting the db name, db user and db password the Windows installation instructions move on to this:

Code: Select all
C:\> cd C:\OMERO.server
C:\OMERO.server> bin\omero db script
Please enter omero.db.version [OMERO4.4]:
Please enter omero.db.patch [0]:
Please enter password for new OMERO root user: # root_password
Please re-enter password for new OMERO root user: # root_password
Saving to C:\OMERO.server\OMERO4.4__0.sql


well, the omero.db.version is 4.4
--> but what is the patch level ????

The version I've got is 4.4.8 so I initially assumed that the patch level would be 8 but that's not right. So what IS the patch level? This is a new installation, so I'm thinking that your message "accept the default" is what I should do.

EDIT - I went ahead and did that and there are no apparent errors so I will think positive and forge ahead.

Well, after wrestling with it some more, and punching holes in the firewall and realizing that "Administrator"...the default login in not the same thing as "root"...I can log in on the command line and via omero.insight.

Next up is to make two accounts, add some images and make sure it plays nice. If that works, then I think this is done, and I'll owe some thanks to several people in this thread who helped out.

We have a working Omero server running on Windows server 2008.

Many thanks to people who responded to this thread, and helped me out as I growled and snarled and tore out my already non-existent hair.
