Specific issues when installing Temprecord on a network server

Installation of Temprecord > Notes for System Administrators > Specific issues when installing Temprecord on a network server

The default behaviour of a "Remote" installation (All Users, Shared Settings, Remote EXE) of Temprecord is to install a default INI file to the Application Data folder off the EXE folder on the server (i.e. \\Server\Program Files\Temprecord\TRW\Application Data\).  This means that all users on all computers will share the INI file settings.  The client computers will have no local INI file, and if there are any INI files on the local machine they will not be used.

This behaviour can be modified as described below.  This discussion only applies to "All Users, Shared Settings, Remote EXE" installations

To have all users on all client PCs accessing the executable on the server share the same settings

This is the default installation setup. Ensure there is an INI file in the folder \\Server\Program Files\Temprecord\TRW\Application Data\

Ensure there is no INI file in the folder \\Server\Program Files\Temprecord\TRW\Application Data\

Ensure there is no INI file in the folder \\Server\Program Files\TRW\

Ensure there is no INI file in the folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Temprecord\Application Data\TRW\

Ensure there is an INI file in the folder C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Temprecord\TRW\

To have all users on all client PCs accessing the executable on the server have separate settings

Ensure there is no INI file in the folder \\Server\Program Files\Temprecord\TRW\Application Data\
