Looking for sample data for Aras 12.0 SP18
Hello,
is there a set of sample data available for Aras 12.0 SP18? The current sample data I found here https://www.aras.com/en/support/sample-data is not compatible with 12.0 SP18.
Thank you. B...

Thank you for your answer.
I used the Sample Database Installer (ArasInnovatorSampleDB.exe). Changing the VersionServicePack variable did not solve the issue. Still in the end I got the error "You are attempting to install the sample database to Aras Innovator 12.0 SP18. The sample database requires Aras Innovator 12.0 SP9".
But the problem is solved now. I found one who had installed SP9, he made an upgrade to SP18 and exported the sample database from his system. That one I was able to import via SQL Management Studio...
I'm just doing my very first steps with Aras. The installation of an Aras Server and the import of the sample DB was just for exercise.

In the past Aras provided the sample data as regular Import package, which was easier to use across the various versions. But as Aras extended the demo package with a lot of additional item (vault files...), they probably had to switch to the new Installer approach.
I once used the "Version change trick" for another import were it worked just perfectly. Of course that´s not a guarantee that it will work for all scenarios, so your feedback is a good hint for the success-rate of this technique.
Happy that you were able to find a solution!
