Description

When you install iProcess Engine, the installer assigns the Log on as a service right to the user account you have chosen to use to run the iProcess nodeName Process Sentinels service (the IPESERVICE user). The right is assigned on the computer where you have installed the iProcess Engine.

If you have installed the iProcess Engine in a domain, using domain users, and the domain uses a group policy for the Log on as a service right, you must now also update that group policy to include the IPESERVICE user.

If you do not do this, the IPESERVICE user’s locally-assigned right will be overwritten when the domain controller propagates the group policy to the member machines in the domain (which happens, by default, every 90 minutes). The account will therefore lose the Log on as a service right, and so be unable to start the iProcess nodeName Process Sentinels service.

Procedure

Change the group policy on the domain controller for the Log on as a service right to include the IPESERVICE user.

Warning 

You must have access to an account that has Domain Administrator privileges to be able to change the group policy.

See Also

There are a number of ways to change group policies, depending on how the domain is configured. See your Microsoft documentation for more information about group policies and how to change them.
