    could someone pls advise? KPACS is a great tool for admin testing. it should work on this server i would have thought?


    thanks in anticipation.

    K-PACS was never intended to run on Windows Server editions. In addition, it also wasn't developed for 64 bit machines.


    There are very probably permission issues that prevent the application from starting, especially since on servers user permissions are handled even stricter than on Windows OS for client systems. Also your anti-virus protection may prevent K-PACS from starting.


    You may try to set specific user permissions for the K-PACS installation folder and to add an exception for K-PACS and its server component in your anti-virus program. Otherwise, use K-PACS on a supported OS instead.


    Please also check other threads in this forum that already discuss this or similar topics of OS incompatibilities, e.g. this one.
