Report Server running as a service

Hi

Just wondering if anyone has been able to setup the Tessitura report server to run as a service on a server.

The problem is getting the report server to start automatically when the server restarts after Windows Updates have been applied. I have tried a few things but none of them seem to work.

Any pointers or advice would be gratefully received.

Cheers

  • Hello.  Since the report server has a GUI, it cannot be set up as a service unfortunately.  I got around this by creating a standard user domain account, and having that domain account auto-login to the server.  I then put the report server shortcut in the users startup folder.

    Now when the server restarts for any reason, that domain account logs in and fires up the Report server application.

    Like I said.. this solved it for me... not that pretty though.

    Hope this helps and good luck!

    Ah, but it can. We've been running it as a service for years. I can send more info offline, if you like.
