Database configuration program failure

At the end of the installation of the ITP/MDK Repository Server the database will be populated or converted. This is done by running a database configuration program (cvc.exe). This program connects to the installed ITP/MDK Repository Server using the host name and port provided during installation. If this fails, the installation will still be successful and database configuration may be completed manually.

Database configuration may fail if, during installation, the ITP/MDK Repository Server service failed to start. Go to the Services console to check whether the service is running. The name of the service is "Aia ITP/MDK Repository Server [InstallationName]", where [InstallationName] will be replaced by the Installation name provided during installation.

If the service has not been started, this may be caused by a port conflict. If the port number that was provided during installation is in use by another process, the ITP/MDK Repository service will not start. The port conflict may be resolved by changing the port number in the configuration file of the ITP/MDK Repository Server (itprep.ini). Refer to the "Server configuration" section in the "Configuration" chapter of the ITP/MDK Repository Server section for more information on the configuration file. When the port conflict is resolved, the ITP/MDK Repository Server can be started (Refer to 6.1 Start the Server for more information).

If the ITP/MDK Repository Server service is running, the database configuration program may be rerun manually. Open a command prompt and go to the installation folder of the ITP/MDK Repository Server. From here, run:

cvc.exe reportsdump

After this, the database will be configured correctly and ready for the steps described in chapter 6 After installation.
