MySQL
MySQL database service is installed by the install user (thus again the requirement of
installing, starting, running and modifying services). Once running it will just work.
Merge and Weaver Engines
These components do run under the Designer (if only Designer is installed) or the Server /
Extension service(s) and inherit the rights of their parent application.
Server (Extension) Configuration Tool
This component needs to access the settings of the Server. As these are stored and read by the
Server, it should be clear that the user used to run the Configuration tool should be the same as
the Server Service user as explained above.
Installing PlanetPress Connect on Machines without
Internet Access
Installing PlanetPress Connect1.7.1 in offline mode requires some extra steps. These are listed
below.
GoDaddy Root Certificate Authority needs to be installed.
In order to install PlanetPress Connect it is necessary for the GoDaddy Root Certificate
Authority to be installed (G2 Certificate) on the host machine and for this to be verified online.
When a machine hosting the installation does not have access to the Internet, the installation
will fail because the verification cannot be performed. To solve this problem one must first
ensure that all Windows updates have been installed on the host machine. Once the Windows
updates are confirmed as being up to date, then complete the following steps:
1. Go to https://certs.godaddy.com/repository and download the following two certificates to
copy to the offline machine:
l GoDaddy Class 2 Certification Authority Root Certificate - G2 - the file is gdroot-
g2.crt
l GoDaddy Secure Server Certificate (Intermediate Certificate) - G2 - the file is
gdig2.crt
