Creating an account with Windows administrator privileges
Before installing iHub, create a Windows user account that is a member of the Administrators group. Use this account when installing and running iHub.
The iHub user account must meet the following requirements:
Be a member of the Windows Administrators group.
The account must have privileges to access the required software and hardware, such as database servers, printers, and iHub files and folders.
Have log on as a service privilege.
If the account does not meet this requirement, the iHub installation program prompts you to configure the privilege to run the Windows Actuate iHub service.
On a new Windows Vista installation, the initial user account is not a member of the Administrators group. You must configure this user account to be a member of this group.
In Windows Server 2003, when installing an iHub that uses the OOTB PostgreSQL RDBMS, create a Windows user account that is a member of the Power Users, not the Administrators group. In Windows Server 2003, PostgreSQL cannot run with Administrator privileges.
Perform the iHub installation using an account that has Administrator privileges. During the installation, when prompted to specify the user account that runs the iHub and PostgreSQL services, specify the Power User account and password. Make sure that this user account has permission to access any required software and hardware, such as database servers, printers, and iHub files and folders.
