Hello,

We are attempting to move from a Windows 2003 server to a Windows 2008 R2 server.

We are using a software program called Quantum that runs on RM/Cobol, I am getting this error.

RM/COBOL Runtime - Version 12.02 for 32 bit Windows.

Error invoking unauthorized copy of runtime

Windows Firewall error (Loc 314).

Stopping the Windows firewall service allows the program to run but obviously I don't want the firewall disabled, I tried adding an exception for the runc.exe exe but that does not work.

Does anyone know what needs to be open for the program to communicate, (i.e. ports, executibles, etc.)

Thank you,

Jay

Version 12.02 predates Windows Server 2008 R2 by several years.  It very well may be the case that this issue has been fixed in a later release of RM/COBOL.  The Supplement (aka Release Notes) mentions fixes related to Windows firewall in both 12.06 and 12.07.  Current version is 12.10.

It is quite possible you will encounter other installation issues because Microsoft has done some very dramatic changes in the installation process since Server 2003.
