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.

Optional Settings

Now that CommitCRM depends on the Advantage Database service, the Commit Services (CommitWebInterface & CommitServer) also need the Advantage server to to be up before they try to load. To set these services to be dependant on the Advantage Service, follow these steps:

  3. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services and locate the CommitWebInterface/CommitServer services that you need to set a dependency for.
