Host Publisher Hints and Tips

Post-Installation Tour

This section contains a quick tour of Host Publisher, including a series of tests you can perform to ensure that Host Publisher is installed correctly, and suggested fixes for problems you might encounter.

Note that if you plan to run the Dispatcher and/or the Page Server on different machines, you should always repeat these tests on those machines to ensure that they are configured correctly.

Install with administrative privileges

To install Host Publisher, you must login to Windows NT using an account with administrative privileges. The account should be a member of the group Administrators.

If the account does not have administrative privileges, the install fails. The error messages on an English install are Error Getting the Registry Value! and Failed to Set Key Value!.

Test approach

Begin testing the Host Publisher installation using the Preview function of the Integrator application. This enables you to determine if Java, ODBC, and Host Access are working correctly, without the complication of configuring a Web server.

After previewing the Integrator application, we will start the Dispatcher and Page Server and test the same operations through the Web.
