Installation and Deployment
Acctivate version 12.2 introduces a significant improvement to the installation and deployment process.
In previous versions, Acctivate workstations would connect to a shared “AcctivateData” folder on the server. While this method generally worked well, changes in domain authentication and the use of peer-to-peer networks caused issues with folder share permissions, leading to user frustration.
With version 12.2 and later, workstation installs now establish a direct connection to the database server, Microsoft SQL Server.
Additionally, the installer has been greatly simplified. By default, the Acctivate installer performs a workstation install and automatically attempts to detect and connect to the Acctivate database server if it’s on the local network. With just a few clicks, Acctivate can be installed and ready to use.
If the database server is not detected, you can manually enter the server information, allowing you to connect to a database that is either on-premise or hosted by our Database Hosting Service.
These changes enhance the installation and deployment process, offering greater stability, simplicity, and flexibility.
