Permissions for PlanetPress Connect Server
The PlanetPress Connect Server module, used by the Automation module, requires some
special permissions to run. These permissions are set during installation, in the Engine
Configuration portion of the Installation Wizard, but it can also be configured later by modifying
permissions for the service. To do this:
l In Windows, open the Control Panel, Administrative Tools, then Services (this may
depend on your operating system).
l Locate the service called Serverengine_UUID , where UUID is a series of characters that
depend on the machine where the software is installed.
l
Right-click on the service and select Properties.
l
In the Connection tab, define the account name and password that the service should
use. This can be a local account on the computer or an account on a Windows Domain.
The account must have administrative access on the machine. It should also correspond
to the user account set up in PlanetPress Worfklow.

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:
