Re: Can'r run as a service on Windows 2016

I dont have access to server 2016 so cant be sure but my guess is its a permission issue. Please see https://www.advancedinstaller.com/user-guide/qa-custom-user-service.html Do you have the local policy set for the use under which the service is running and does the user have read and write

Hi Paul, I use Inno Setup to create Windows installers for our 4D client and 4D server applications, the default install path for the server application is C:\Program Files. I normally set the data folder at the root of the C drive. However, the application that I support is installed at

What is the file path to the location where you have the exe and data installed. You can only use c:\\program files for the exe not the data. For that use c:\\program data or as mentioned install under a user account. In which case it runs from c:\users\username etc. Paul -- Sent from:

RE: Can'r run as a service on Windows 2016

Pat, Have a look at the docs: https://doc.4d.com/4Dv17/4D/17.1/Registering-a-Database-as-a-Service.300-4203714.en.html They recommend to run the server under an user account, if you want to use network shares, printers and so on. But we don't install the services this way, we stay at system

Re: Can'r run as a service on Windows 2016

Pretty weird... I didn't have to change anything else, but I never tried connecting a client on the server machine while 4D Server was running as a service. Can you connect from a client over the network? Clients on the server machine seem to use an optimized protocol that doesn't involve
