RE: [otrs] Windows Install - Service Unavailable

Dunno if it's this simple, but there's a "known issue" with IIS on 2003 with a service pack applied at the "wrong" time. (i think it was something like that) Re-applying the Service Pack, should fix this specific issue. You may google IIS 2003 service unavailable, and you'll probably find a few articles about it. Of course, there may be other issues causing it. -- /Sune _____ From: otrs-bounces@otrs.org [mailto:otrs-bounces@otrs.org] On Behalf Of Tcl Warrior Sent: 30. januar 2008 14:31 To: otrs@otrs.org Subject: [otrs] Windows Install - Service Unavailable Service Unavailable Okay, I am trying to install otrs on a windows 2003, IIS6, Sql2005 and Activestate Perl.

I dont know why the official documentation dont describe the manual install for windows since I am sure many ppl will want to install otrs under the same setup that I have, the windows setup easy as it is, is only for mysql and apache! I have to use windows and sql 2005, its our company standard, I dont have a choice. If someone can supply simple steps, or if the developers can fix the official docs, it will be strongly appreciated

Well, thanks for the tip I did search as you suggest and modified the
application pool in IIS to use one of the default identities
I also modified the Cron4Win32.pl script to point to the correct directory.
No I get a different error
I get "The page cannot be found"
Any ideas?
Have anyone error successfully installed otrs on windows from the source
package?
