My TeamWork in a Virtual Host

[omniff]

I installed on esx VM with changing ethernet MAC address as same as our customer's server to use their license. I have only one customer using MTW and i did it for have a lab in office to answering their sevice requests remotely. It works fine but as i said it's only for lab. No idea how it is work in real performance.

Hi I tested on VM, the shareing is not working, you can not install VM on VM for shearing.

I have a dell 380GS in my lab running ESXi 5.1.0 and I'm trying to install TW purely for testing purposes but it's getting stuck in the "running post-install scritps" sequence. Anyone cares to share if they have managed to install it and what virtual machine settings were used to get it to work? I know i won't have document conversion but that's accepted.

Thanks

Not possible as drivers on the DVD are hw specific. Not for VM.

Never tried it in VMware but I have MTW 7.1.4.b installed and running in Sun's (now Oracle) VirtualBox.
Customer installed a production system on his own risk in WMware without problems.
Which version you want to install?

[cavagnaro]

Really? I never tried on Sun... main difference is the type of HD used on the guest machines... guess you gave a test point to play with

I'm trying to install TW 6.7.3 (9.1.0.6586) onto VMware ESXi 5.1.0. It starts but hangs on the "running post-install scripts" section. I have tried it a few times and changed virtual machine settings but have not succeeded going past the scripts.

Haven't tried but as said main difference is HD type. Try using IDE instead of SCSI and see what happens.

How long did you wait?
Because "running post-install scripts" could take up to 20-30 minutes on slow servers.
Also I tried to install 9.1.0.6586 on VirtualBox 4.2.12 on my Windows 7 64-bit PC as Red Hat Linux 64-bit, 200 GB HD, 4 GB RAM) and have it installed without any problem. The installation took about 20 minutes.
