Latest version of RTC client and server do not work together


Stephen Kruger (361117) | asked Feb 10 '09, 12:20 p.m.
I downloaded the latest version of the RTC client and server for Linux, as proposed on the download page (Foundation-Server-I20090122-1459-Linux.zip) and client (1.0.1 I20081024-1335)

Trying to create a Project workspace, when I click on deploy templates, I get the error "The server version is 8 while the client is 6. Both client and server must match."

I don't see ANY reference to either 8 or 6 in my client or server. I would have assumed downloading the latest of both from the download pages would give me compatible versions of both.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

thanks

You cannot use a 1.0.1 client against a 2.0 server. You need to use a
2.0 client with the 2.0 server.

Hi,

I've seen this question asked a few times and I was just wondering what the plans are for version to version compatability.

Can a v2 client work with a v1.0.1 server, or do they both have to match?

Is it possible to get the error message updated so it talks about the versions that are most visible to people? As this person mentioned 6 and 8 does not match with the RTC versions most people are familiar with.

Thanks
Alasdair

A 2.0 client will likely not work with a 1.0.1 server either.

There are some open bugs about how to deal with the version mismatch
better.
