Hello guys, 
i need some help


Our environments data are outdated. When we check that the services of Timextender both in Stopped condition


As far as i know, the 'Timextender Server' service should be able to start/running.But when i try to run it (both in WServiceTools in TX or in Windows Service apps service) but it just start and stopped it said error 1788 (As on attachment) the account that being used is LocalSystem which is the System Account.


I've tried as support.timextender article told but no luck


Can somebody give me help whats the problem ?

 


Hi Muhammad, 


I would start by checking the Event Viewer logs on the server. Normally it gives a better explanation of why the service did not start.


 


 


Hi Muhammad,

When starting the services for multiple environments, you need to do this from within TimeXtender, by logging in with the service account. For more information, please see the KB article about configuring Multiple Environments.

Steps to start the service within TimeXtender

1. Navigate to the timextender.exe application file in the TimeXtender installation directory, Shift+Right-Click and choose Run as different user

2. Enter the credentials for the Service Account and click OK. This will run the TimeXtender application as the Service Account user.

3.TimeXtender Tools Menu > Windows Service Setup

4. Select the service from the list and select Start at the top.


already tried 'Run as different user' option on the choice. Its already logged in with LocalSystem account which privilege should enough


Here is event viewer log

Service cannot be started. System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): Login failed for user 'DWH-SERVER\admin01'.

Hi Muhammad,


Thanks for the information. You have two options, based on the error you are seeing, but the goal is the same: login to TimeXtender from the same account that the environment is set with.


  1. You can use the "Log on As..." option cited above

  2. You can change the environment "Log on As..." to the local user account, which isn't best practice but could work.

If you would like to schedule a call to screenshare session, or more personalized help, please feel free to email Support@TimeXtender.com.


Best,


Taylor
