I wish 4D could produce an idiot’s guide to setting up 4D Server on Windows Server 2016 Standard as a service, especially as a web server. I am going in circles. Uist -- Ceres Computer Consultants Ltd Registered Office: South Scotstarvit Chance Inn Cupar Fife KY15 5QJ +44 (0) 1334 828002

Hi Robert, Here is a link to v13 version of my CodeAnalysis component. http://openroaddevelopment.com/downloads/CodeAnalysis_4Dv13_v1.7.1.zip Using this you can export all the methods, structure as well as some json that describes the forms. Do this for both structures and then use an

Hi Pat, I don’t have any experience with running 4D as a Service, but I see that there is a Tech Tip from about 10 years ago which mentions having to “Run as Administrator” https://kb.4d.com/assetid=75056 HTH, Tom Benedict > On Feb 27, 2019, at 02:40, Pat Bensky via 4D_Tech

We have 4D Server v17 HF3 set up as a service on Windows Server 2016. I checked the service properties -- the "Log on as:" is set to "Local System account" and "Allow Service to interact with desktop" is checked. I also have FireDaemon installed to make it easy to bounce into the "session 0"

I would open copies of the 2 structures in v17R3 and use the export function from that so you get all the form objects and everything. Then a diff tool (I use DeltaWalker) can compare everything for you. Randy -- Randy Jaynes

I'm having a bit of trouble trying to set up our 4D app to run as a service on a Windows server. The server version is Windows Server 2016 Standard. If I run the app "As Administrator" it starts up OK and we can connect to it. If I don't start it as Administrator, I get a message that the

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

Thanks Jeff. I made that change and now the service appears to be running OK. BUT ... I can't connect to it from a Client. It says Not Responding. I've only tested with a Client running on the same server, but that should work - never had a problem doing that in the past. Makes no difference if I

Kirk, I too am growing to like ORDA; but this was an issue which had nothing to do with ORDA. Objects pre-date ORDA, as you know. I was simply using an object as a way of permitting a method to return several values at the same time. Those values happened to be pointers to variables (created
