- Unzip the file
Click on the bat file named DOUBLE CLICK HERE TO INSTALL.bat. Multiple installers will pop-up and install the prerequisites before starting the installation of palCentre.
Note Please note, you can skip over the SQL Server Compact Edition installer as this is not required when placing the database on an SQL server (4th installer) – just click cancel when the installer appears.
- You will be prompted for an install folder. palCentre will work when installed in C:\Program Files (x86)\AHSRI\palCentre\ (the default) or any other local (not network) folder available to the machine.
- You will be prompted for a folder in which to store the configuration file. This path should be a location where ordinary users have read and write access. We recommend C:\palCentre\, however, we have allowed this as a configuration option in order to support different partitioning configurations , or even installation of the software and configuration to including storing configuration files on a network drive.
