So far fortunately I am yet to have any problems with it. I have on 2 occasions installed Patch 5, both on MS-SQL 2K5 and Windows 2K3. I've had no problems with it. I have however installed patch 5 after installing the previous patches sequentially as either the previous patches were already installed sequentially, or as in one occasion I was on a project where I had started with patch 3, and moved upwards from there.
How have you tried installing patch 5? Straight from a vanilla (no patches) install of the ITSM apps? If so maybe there is an issue with that..

The answer was reinstallation. I was at another customer site this week which had installed Patch 5 with apparently no problems. It sounds like it works sometimes, for some folks, and fails sometimes, for others. These both were Windows systems with MSSQL databases. -- Regards, Louise van Hine KTSL Limited [EMAIL PROTECTED] Quoting dcharters <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Developer Cache mode was turned on.
