Activation Tool
To run the Software Activation Tool, administrator rights are required because this tool needs to
write the license file in one of the protected folders of Windows. The tool will however allow to
restart it with respective credentials if required.
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 PrintShop Mail Connect on Machines without
Internet Access
Installing PrintShop Mail Connect1.5 in offline mode requires some extra steps. These are
listed below.
GoDaddy Root Certificate Authority needs to be installed.
In order to install PrintShop Mail 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:
