Failed upgrade from Standard 10.43 to 10.45

Post by mmessier »

While attempting to upgrade from Standard 10.43 to 10.45, receive an error stating "Unable to open c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts"
Confirmed the file isn't write-protected via the command prompt.

I was hoping to find anyone else with this issue and if there is a current workaround.

Hi,

The installer will try to add to the hosts file to have mewebmail.localhosthost and meadmin.localhost work. Are you installing the application as administrator? The installation should still continue and you can add the following to the hosts file, although not essential:

127.0.0.1 mewebmail.localhost
127.0.0.1 meadmin.localhost
