Installation Preparation

Install SQL Compact

    • If you are on a 32 bit machine, just the x86 needs to be installed
•  If you are on a 64 bit machine, BOTH the x86 and x64 need to be installed - in that order
•  Note: if already installed, you may cancel the installation
  
  • Many machines already have the x86 installed, but not the x64
  • In that case, you just need to install the x64

Troubleshooting

• If you get an error when trying to run JOScan:
  
  • Is .NET 3.5 installed on that computer?
  • Did you copy the "JOScan.exe.config" and "JOScanDB.sdf" files into "C:\JOScan"?
  • Is there a firewall on the server? If so, contact us for Inbound Rules to add

On the server, re-start the "SQL Server (JOSCAN)" service, and try again.
