1.0 RC2 to 1.0 RC3: Firewall is not configured correctly! (1 Viewer)

[weissollo]

Hello,

I have reproduced the following:

I have RC2 installed on the the server. Client can connect properly to the server!
It is not a dedicated server.

Now I upgrade to RC3.

---> Uninstall RC2:
- Go to Software
- Remove Mediaportal
- Remove Mediaportal TV-Server /Client
- Restart the Server

- You see the Firewall Settings on the screenshots (1 to 5)

---> Install RC3:
- Using the MS Sql Server.
- For further details see the logs! Or ask me

---> Configured TV Server...

---> Tried Client on the Server
- TV works!!

---> On another Client
- In the Configuration tool I type in Hostname "htpc"
- Click on OK
- takes over three minutes until the window closes
- On the client there is an error in the log files:

2008-10-26 19:52:50.105886 [Info.][Config Main]: TVHome: Error in Reload - The database backend (provider SQLServer) could not be reached.
Check the connection string: Password=MediaPortal;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=sa;Initial Catalog=MpTvDbRC2;Data Source=htpc\SQLEXPRESS;Connection Timeout=300;

---> Configured the Firewall on the Server
- added the sqlservr.exe manually to the Firewall settings. (screenshot)
---------> WORKS!!!!!


----------> MY SUGGESTION:
Uninstall Mediaportal ---> Remove the Firewall settings
Install MediaPortal ---> Configure the Firewall.


I have already posted that here:

I always can go back to RC2 or forward to RC3 (TrueImage)

And again:
Keep up the good work!!!
