View all known problems for IBM SPSS Collaboration and Deployment Services

At the time of publication, the following issues were known:

• When installing using Launchpad on systems with Universal Account Control (UAC) enabled, such as Windows 7, the installation links do not perform any actions. You must run the Launchpad installation as administrator having elevated rights and privileges. The resolution is documented in Technote 1653952.
• When you use Installation Manager wizard mode, if you select IBM SPSS Collaboration and Deployment Services, IBM SPSS Collaboration and Deployment Services - Scoring Server, and one or more scoring adapters for installation, the scoring adapters will be installed to the scoring server only. To install the scoring adapters to the IBM SPSS Collaboration and Deployment Services server, you must rerun the adapter installation. Alternatively, you can use silent mode to install the scoring adapters to both servers. The resolution is documented in Technote 1654658.
• When you use a SQL Server named instance as the IBM SPSS Collaboration and Deployment Services Respository database, the installation is unable to complete successfully. Update the SQL Server URL strings in the db.properties file to allow successful connections to the repository database. The resolution is documented in Technote 1656605.
