Hi Guys,

I just installed a stand-alone version of P6.1 . I do get the same problem in startup. I gone throught the adminguide and its make me crazy and sound all bullshit. I checked the SQLAgent$PRIMAVERA service automatic. Its automatic but when i try to start it, i get an error "can not run on local machine".



if anyone comes up with any solution pls share ...



Regards

Suresh

Bonjour Alexandre

Meanwhile I checked: this service is set to automatic start. So there might be a different reason.

Thanks

Dieter, Ronald,

I have the question yesterday to the french PAR’s engineers, their answer is:

when PM6 is locally installed over a MSDE database, check that the windows service SQLAgent$Primavera is set "Automatic"

when using SQL Server Express, check that the agent PRMBackgroundAgent (shipped with PM6) is well installed and set "Automatic" (it should be)

Hope this helps

In our department it happens from time to time for one pc when starting the local database - it is a notebook used for presentations, business trips e.t.c. It’s also used with the server-database.

We use P6. It was installed by a technician of the German PAR.

I don’t believe that this annoying pop-up message informing you of this ‘fault’ was a direct result of deleting all sample data. This same thing happened to me when I upgraded to P6.1.



The reason for background jobs is the result of changes made to the way P6 works. It used to be that the System Manager was supposed to log on to P6 and manually erase all data marked for deletion. I believe that the erasure of deleted data is now supposed to occur when no one is using P6. This is handled by a “job scheduler.” Standalone users of P6 use MS SQL Server 2005 Express, which does not come with such a utility. Primavera has included a agent that runs P6 background jobs and is supposed to be automatically installed.



Everything worked fine right up until I installed P6.1 over an existing P6.0 installation. The instructions for installing and registering this stupid program begin on Page 59 of the Administrator’s Guide. I have read this twice and still cannot build-up enough nerve to begin this complicated process of playing around with the Windows Registry, naming local database instances, and the running the Services control panel (whatever that is.)



All I wanted to do was run a couple of CPM schedules, not train to be a Database Server Technician and Manager. Where is that copy of SureTrak that I had lying around?

Hi Ferdinand

this sometimes happens to stand-alone installations. I don’t know why. Just accept it - no harm.

May be one of the experts knows the reason?
