Hi PaulDigitalD,

Apologies for a late response. I checked this and found that the issue is not with MYOB software but that MS SQL server 2019 doesn't work on DC. Here is the link from microsoft detailing this. 

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/571019/domain-controller-sql-server-2019

As advised before, MYOB is moving AO from SQL server 2014 to 2019 because Microsoft has stopped support for SQL 2014 and hence we cannot continue to use it for our software.

 

FYI - ITWorx_NZ and freedomit

    Hi,

     

    I can understand the position that MYOB is taking by following  the recommendations of Microsoft.

     

    But, hypothetically, if the MYOB AO upgrade discovers that SQL Server 2019 is already installed, will it use it and carry on (essentially skipping the DC+SQL Server check)?

Looking for something else?
