Upgrade from NPM 9.1 to 9.5 - All views are FUBAR!

We upgraded last week from NPM 9.1 to NPM 9.5. All of the views that we all customized for ourselves are now whacked! The default view (http://10.x.x.x) gives a http 404 error.

For example, my view has a map in column 1, and 3 tables in column 2. I had to resize the map in column 1 and only 1 of the 3 tables appears in column 2. My co-workers all report similar problems with views.

Also, Orion support has told us that Netflow and the SQL need to be on separate boxes. Anyone know when this started? We have had them on the same box since day 1. This was working fine under 9.1.

Also, has anyone run the app server in a virtual environment? I have a physical SQL cluster I could move the database to.

I have contacted Orion support on all of these issues, but only gotten 1 or 2 e-mails back; and all my questions have not been answered. Any and all help from the forum will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Lee

Do you have any custom views or custom resources? If you were using ASP content, it's no longer supported. I'd suggest a Support ticket.

Lee- the views you are talking about- are they custom written resources, or are they just customized views?

If they are custom resources and they are written in ASP classic, they will need to be re-written in ASP.NET. That being said, there is NO ASP classic content in 9.5- it has all been re-written in .NET, so that may be related to the odd views.

As far as netflow/orion apps and the database being on separate servers...I remember reading that in the hardware reqs some time ago- 2 or 3 years. So I would say it's been that way as long as I can remember.

We are running the App in ESX with SQL on a seperate server with no issues.
