Cannot get AppFabric installed on Windows Server 2016
- If you're not familiar with it, you didn't use it :) Usually what you'd do is set all your DistCache parameters (service account, memory usage) prior to introducing a 2nd DC host, but if you need to deploy a DC+FE host, you can use that parameter to prevent DC from provisioning.
If DC is truly not working, you need a new farm. Certain things are only provisioned when the first DC host is introduced to the farm.
Hi Trevor,
I got it to deploy using the pre-reqs installer but I can't get it to work. I did manually deploy the AppFabric Update after I finally got AppFabric to install.
The AppFabric config wizard (see attached) doesn't look right to me...shouldn't it be a member of a cluster if i have it installed on 2 WFE's?
What have you tried, so we don't go down the same steps? Are you able to run Use-CacheCluster on a host you've attempted to start AppFab?
I've tried uninstalling, re-installing AppFabric using the pre-reqs. Created new VM and re-installed Pre-reqs and SharePoint.
When I run use-cachecluster I get this error:
SubStatus<ES0001>:Error in reading provider and connection string values.
Please provide the values manually.When I run Get-CacheHost I get this error:
SubStatus<ES0001>:Error: No valid cluster settings were provided with
Use-CacheCluster.- Is this VM from a template or installed via Windows ISO w/o any other software (antivirus, etc.)?
It was installed via .iso No other software installed. Just SharePoint and the pre-reqs. Firewall is turned off.
