Hi All,
Have spent the past week or two trying to figure out what is wrong with this situation.
I have already upgraded a testbed machine of ours from V7.509 to V8.
The problem here now lies where I am trying to upgrade our main firewall which is a bespoke machine and has 2GB ram and approx 120GB usable HDD space.
I first, take a backup of my installation on V7.511 and save it on my local machine.
Next, I shut the machine down and connect a brand new HDD, on this HDD I install V8.3 from a newly burnt disc.
All sets up and installs fine until I log in using the details i specified in the setup steps where I enter company info, etc.
When I try to upload the V7 Backup file onto the V8 machine it hangs and hangs and hangs. Eventually timing out.
I have tried this numerous times with different internet browsers. IE hardly worked at all.
Tried Chrome and Firefox but all still hang.
Everytime this messes up I have fully re-install V8 again.
Please help.
Thanks in advance.
