Hi Doug, and thank you for the prompt reaction!
The currdbversion version is indeed 57 however we don’t have a db we can revert to... So the questions remain: - how does the installer recognize whether it’s dealing primary vs secondary server or - how can we convince it to think of this server as primary server. Is a secondary server secondary forever? No right? Thomas On Wed 24.
