ABBYY Recognition Server 3.0 System Administrator’s Guide
Note:
If you select the Web Service component for installation, Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) and
Microsoft .NET Framework (including Microsoft ASP.NET) must be already installed on your computer.
Microsoft IIS can be installed as a Windows component via the Start>Settings>Control Panel>Add or
Remove Programs window.
To install Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0, you may run dotnetfx20.exe file from the DotNet folder on the
Recognition Server 3.0 CD and follow the installation program instructions. When installing Microsoft .Net
Framework, ASP.NET is copied on the computer but not installed. You should install it manually by running:
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\vX.X.XXX\aspnet_regiis.exe i (specify the appropriate version
instead of vX.X.XXX).
The Recognition Server Web Service may require very complex configuration, if it is installed on the same
computer with Microsoft Office SharePoint Server. It is not recommended to install them on the same
computer.
Selecting a user account
The Server Manager and the Processing Station components of ABBYY Recognition Server are services. If you select at
least one of these components, the program will ask you to select a user account under which the services will be run
after installation. By default, the Local System account is selected.
You should select User account in the following cases:
If the Server Manager and the Processing Stations will be installed on different computers in a workgroup
network.
If the Server Manager and the Processing Stations will be installed on different computers in a domainbased
network and the TCP/IP protocol will be used instead of Named Pipes (see details in the Connection
protocols section).
If the Input Folder (from which the images will be imported by Recognition Server) and the Output Folder and
the Exception Folder (to which the documents will be published by Recognition Server) are located on a
computer different from that on which the Server Manager is installed.
In this case you should run the Server Manager and Processing Stations under a user account which has
read/write access to these folders.
If you are going to configure Recognition Server to save output documents to Microsoft Office SharePoint
Server.
In this case you should run the Server Manager under a user account which has read/write access to the
SharePoint Server libraries.
If you are going to configure Recognition Server to import images from an Exchange Mailbox, send output
documents by email, or send notifications to the administrator by email.
