Installationproblems with EPiServer CMS 6 (6.0.530.0)

Vote:
 

I installed EPiServer CMS 6 on Windows Server 2003 SP2 32-bit using the Application option. The server had CMS 5 R1SP1 and CMS 5 R2SP2 installed from before (but not CMS6 RC1).

I get the Version 6.0.530.0 option in the deployment center with all the usual options (Install site etc.)

But if I try to run any of them I get this error message:
Error - The term 'New-EPiCMSWizard' is not recognized as a cmdlet, function, operable program, or script file. Verify the term and try again.

I have uninstalled CMS 6 and reinstalled it with no change. Same with reboot.

If I run 'Get-PPSnapin -r' in Powershell I get:

PS C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator> Get-PSSnapin -r

And yes I ran the setup.exe to install the release. :-)

I ran into two small issues whilst trying to deploy a v6 site, though they don't seem to be related to yours

  1. In my excitement, I ran the install from the unextracted zip file!
  2. There was an issue with the EPiServer Shared components folder. The install process complained that the folder didn't exist. I think this was related to a choice I made as to whether to stop the Indexer/Scheduling service (I chose yes). When I tried to install again and selected no (the process then suggested I needed a reboot to finish 6.0.530.0 installation)

After a reboot the site install worked without issue.

Found the solution to the problem.

I also ran the install from the unextracted zip file, and unzipping all the files and then running setup.exe again fixed the problem. 

Here is what I did in more detail:

  1. Unzipped all the installation files
  2. Ran setup.exe, it installed the EPiServer.Framework etc. automaticaly
  3. Canceled the setup
  4. Fired up Deployment Center
  5. And now it works!

Thanks Mark for the tip!
