Spaxx Connector requires Microsoft .NET 8 framework. Even if several frameworks can coexist in the same machine, it might happen in some cases that, even after installing the Microsoft .NET 8 framework, the default framework is still Microsoft .NET 5.
The Space Relaxx SyncAgent web browser application may not work properly even though:
- Space Relaxx SyncAgent and Space Relaxx Web services are installed and up and running
- and the SpaceRelaxxDb is created on SQL Server.
The problem could be due to a Microsoft .NET framework malfunction.
Example of coexisting Microsoft .NET versions
To fix this problem you could:
- Remove all the instances of the Microsoft .NET 5 framework
- Reboot the server or computer
- Reinstall the Spaxx connector
