Other errors starting the software

If the FactoryTalk AssetCentre Machine Edition software won’t start or you see other
error messages not specifically mentioned above, try the following:

„

Make sure the FactoryTalk AssetCentre Server service, IIS, and SQL server are all
running.

„

If you are running in an environment without a domain controller (in a workgroup),
you may need to turn off the single sign-on feature of FactoryTalk. See the
FactoryTalk Help for more information.

„

Make sure the server location setting is correct. Click Start > Programs > Rockwell
Software > FactoryTalk AssetCentre Server > Server Settings
. The server location
must be set in this utility, NOT in the FactoryTalk Administration Console.

„

Make sure the SQL Connection is set properly. On the server computer, click Start >
Programs > Rockwell Software > FactoryTalk AssetCentre Server > Data Source
Configuration
.

„

If you are using a firewall, make sure your firewall is configured properly to permit
access to the FactoryTalk AssetCentre Server service. See “Network requirements” on
page 4 and “Additiona
l ports you may have to open” on page 35.
