Verifying the installation:

The Commit SQL Database runs on the server as a service called 'Advantage Database Server'.

If you have any program control software installed on your server remember to allow this service to act as a server.

In order to start / stop the database server simply start and stop the service (called 'Advantage Database Server') from the Service Manager window (control panel -> administrative tools -> services). Please make sure no one is using Commit when you stop the service.

Done! Commit SQL Database is installed.
