Anybody encountered SmartUpgrade issue when trying to upgrade Lotus 8.5.3 clients to 9.0. The issue is when SmartUpgrade is started the installation is performed in the Interactive Session Detection environment. Our main OS for all computers is Windows 7 64-bit SP1. Is there a way to avoid this ?

SmartUpgrade interactive service detection problem

Hi, I have the same problem. Has someone a solution. Smartupgrade downloads the SuRunAs.exe file to local workstation. At the point when Smart Upgrade unpack the SuRunAs.exe interactive service detection starts and install process stops. I tried with /qn parameter but no success.

We use Windows 7 64 bit and service interactive service detections is started.

I created SuRunAs.exe with these paramters -s -a /s /w / v"ALLUSERS=1 /qn" then installation stops at this point

I didn't see any definitive resolution to this when I checked
I see a lot of reports of this behavior, but it didn't look to me like there was a definitive resolution. I recommend opening a PMR so we can get to the bottom of it.

pmr solution.

From ibm, the possible bug come from the MSVCR71.dll

you have to copy MSVCR71.dll from a working machine to machine with the problem.

On 64 bit Windows 7
Copy DLL MSVCR71.DLL from Notes Executable directory and paste it into this directory: C:\Windows\SysWOW64.

On 32 bit Windows 7
Copy DLL MSVCR71.DLL from Notes Executable directory and paste it into this directory C:\ Windows\system32.

MSVCR71.dll is a Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime library.

 

I tested it on several confiuration (windows 7 with and without uac, on 32 and 64 bits) and found success everytime.

So now, with some manual installation (suservice to be pushed to old 8.5.2) notes and this dll, everything is possible with smartupgrade and surunas.

regards

I will maybe post the vbs script that helped me to push and install the suservice to computers, but it need some adjustments.
