I am new to Sage installation. Installing an update on a new server and upgrading to the latest version. Having issues with SQL L

SUGGESTED

This is my first time installing updates to Sage. I have been on a pretty old version for awhile now waiting on my server replacement (old server was too old to be able to install the new version) I now have the new server and am ready to install the new version and when I got started it is asking to find the computer that has the data on it. I selected the server from the network list and it accepted that, however it then was trying to use the SQL from my estimating program Xactimate. I am not sure if that would be an issue or not but I was afraid to move forward from there and end up screwing up both programs!! Anyone on there have any suggestions? Unfortunately it is difficult to install while the office is open and when it is not, the customer support is closed for the day. So I thought I would try this. Any help would be appreciated.

    I believe we are using Sage 100 contractor. I do have a guy here that has helped install the back ups in the past but he is a little unsure of this install. I am thinking I may have to wait until Friday when we usually close up shop a little early so the customer support is still open. I am not sure who the re-seller is. It was set up initially and first installed years ago and then basically updated from time to time. I don't have any names of anyone other than a sales person at Sage. I have some experience working with programs but am not a full blown IT person to say the least. That being said I am very cautious so if it seems questionable I will bring in someone who knows. Lol

    You are posting in the wrong section.  There is another section for Contractor. The forum moderator will probably move the thread but you can also report in the Sage Construction forum
