Install Unattended Modules as Services

Issue

How to install unattended modules As Services?

 

Solution

The following executables for the unattended modules are located in the Kofax Capture Bin folder:

Kofax PDF Generator	kfxpdf.exe
OCR Full Text	ocr.exe
Recognition Server	fp.exe
Export	release.exe
Remote Synchronization Agent (RSA)	acirsa.exe
XML Import Connector	acxmlai.exe

 

To install the service for a Kofax Capture module, run the installation from a command prompt on the station where you want to run a module as a service as follows:

 

These can be installed from the command line with the following syntax:

• Install: module_executable.exe -install
• Uninstall: module_executable.exe -uninstall

 

If you are using User Profiles, use the following additional syntax:

• Install: module_executable.exe –install -u:"userID" -p:"password"
• Uninstall: module_executable.exe –uninstall -u:"userID" -p:"password"

 

Notes:

• To install services, you must be logged in to Windows with administrator rights.
• Kofax Capture Enterprise users can install multiple instances of a service.
• When using KCN Server, you can also install the Remote Synchronization Agent (RSA) as a service.
• Running additional services on your server may impact overall system performance, and therefore is not recommended unless you are using a multiprocessor system as your server.

 

 

Please review the Kofax Capture Services section of the Kofax Capture Administrator's Guide for more information on installing unattended modules as a services.
