Running the Installation with extra logging
The installer can be run with enhanced logging options, if needed.
To do so, run the PrintShop Mail_Connect_Setup_x64.exe from the command line with one of
the following command line options:
l
PrintShop Mail_Connect_Setup_x64.exe --verbose
This adds extra debugging style logging to the installation process.
l
PrintShop Mail_Connect_Setup_x64.exe --trace
This adds full trace style logging to the installation process. The log file this produces will
be very large, as this option logs everything.
Selecting the required components
After clicking the Next button, the component selection page appears, where the different
components of PrintShop Mail Connect can be selected for installation. Currently, the following
are available:
l
PrintShop Mail Connect Designer: The Designer module (see "The Designer" on
page110) can be installed standalone (with no other installed modules)on as many
machines as you like. It does not require a license to run as a standalone designer tool .
This allows for any number of people to use the Designer for creating jobs, but without
production capabilities such as automation and commingling.
l
MySQL: A supplied MySQLdatabase used by PrintShop Mail Connect.
The database is used for referencing temporary Connect files and for sorting temporarily
extracted data, and similar.
A pre-existing MySQL or Microsoft SQL server (referred to as an external database, in
this documentation) could be used instead, for the same purposes.
The external database could reside on the same computer or on a separate server.
If you wish to make use of an external database, please make sure the MySQL option is
not selected.
Warning
If you chose not to install the supplied MySQL database, and instead opt to use a
pre-existing external database, then you must ensure that your external database is
