Hi to all,
I just solved an issue on installing both RTM and CU01 NAV NSTs on a server.
My situation was:
- NAV 2018 RTM (B19394) installed by DVD
- NAV 2018 CU01 (B19846) installed by copying the ServiceTier folder on the CU01 DVD.
Tried with and without portsharing.
CU01 service fails to start, event log gives me this error

I solved the issue by doing this:
1) Uninstall RTM NST from control panel (kept other created services on copies of DVD folder named "ServiceTier")
2) Install CU01 NST from dvd
3) Create multiple copies of the service by copying the "Service" folder located on "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics NAV\110\Service"
That way both RTM services and CU01 can run without issues.
I guess there are some differences on files created by the Setup and the DVD folder of the CU01.
Hope that in future CUs this issue will be solved.

Andrea
