Title: workstation install required extra rights
Post by gtladmin on 04/23/10 at 07:29:58

Ok, I admit it has been a while since I did a workstation install, but I know I never had to grant full rights to the local C: drive on a system to get Evo to do the workstation install. But, we had a new Windows XP sp3 laptop and Evo would just not install. Path was correct, firewall not blocking, full rights were on the c:\ists folder. Yet, until I finally granted full rights on the C: drive itself, the evoerp.exe setup would not work. After granting the rights, the install worked and then I yanked the rights. The program runs fine, no issues there.

Just wondering...

And another thing I noticed: there are two splash screens that come up when launching Evo. They are both the "This product is licensed to" screens, but the first one is NOT our splash screen, it says the product is licenses to Evo~ERP, PO Box 1494, Whittier CA 90609 with the serial number. Ours comes up about a second later and overlays then the first one disappears. Just thought someone should know.
Have not see this issue before.

The first splash screen is the runtime license that we (IS Tech Support) have purchased for the rights to redistribute the Evo-ERP executable. The second (that stays up longer) is the license we generate for you as an Evo-ERP end user. It has always been there.

Well, it had not shown, nor does it, on any other computer on our network ever, other than this new one. Just wanted to be sure it was not something that shouldn't be there.

Thank you.

It flashes past superfast on some of our computers. Some slow ones actually show it.

Well, this ain't a slow computer, for sure! It's really really fast.
