QMS with Aras

Hi Duncan,

You can download and install the QMS solution with the Aras Update tool available for download here. https://www.aras.com/support/downloads/

QMS does not need a subscription, but the publishing features available with the Content Modeling Framework (which QMS is built on) does require a subscription.

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Does this mean I can test the QMS without a subscription? Ive installed and run the updater but dont see the quality management tab in innovator

Would the admin user to the database be the login details used when connecting on sql server management studio or the details used to login to the aras innovator web client?

Would posting the log file help?

Hi Duncan,

This will be the login details you use when you connect to the Innovator web client. In general, Aras tries to limit the amount of direct interaction you need to have with SQL Server. :) 

If you continue to run into an install error after updating these parameters, you can attach the log file to a reply.

If im not mistaken, the log files seems to indicate Incompatible version of Innovator

Hi Duncan,

I checked the Install Guide for QMS 11.0R2, and it appears that it has a couple of pre-requisites. Before installing this, you'll also need to install PE 11.0R3 which you can also download and install through Aras Update without needing a subscription. 

Secondly, I missed that there was an optional checkbox to install some Office Connector settings. The Office Connector is a subscriber-only feature, so you'll want to uncheck the Optional Office Connector Settings checkbox when you install QMS again. The other parts of the install should remain checked.

Also getting an error when trying to install Product Engineering package

Could it maybe be the installation path? must I install PE and QMS in aras/innovato/innovator?

Hi Duncan,

Yes, the Install Path for both PE and QMS should contain the trailing /innovator/ folder which for the default install path would be C:\Program Files (x86)\Aras\Innovator\Innovator\. 

Could you also confirm that you are installing the PE package as the root user?

Yes I also tried installing PE as the root user (admin and pass as innovator)

Hi Duncan,

The username for the super user is root not admin. Could you try passing in root as the username? The password for that user should also be innovator.

Ah great that worked, I did have to uncheck SP11 hot fixes on the QMS install for it to work, will be make a big difference ? Thanks

Hi Duncan,

You should not need the SP11 hot fix for your SP12 environment.

Ok thanks for your help Chris, much appreciated
