Hi,

I am trying to install Developer Studio 7.7 on my local 32-bit Windows 7 system. After I installed, I checked the administration console verification tool and everything shows as "PASS". When I try to start the server OPSYS, it gave me an error

"(EDA13015) configuration error: 'admin_id' has no valid server administrator
10/19/2011 16:45:51.190 E You can register or update a server administrator by entering 'C:\ibi\DEVSTU~1\srv77\wfs\bin\edastart -change admin_id'"

Then I went to that path and did change the admin_id but that didn't solve the issue. But when I run the edastart from that path, the server looks like started but still not able to open the Developer Studio.

I am trying to find the following,

1) Did Developer Studio 7.7 need 64-bit system?
2) Do I have to install Webfocus server before installing Developer Studio 7.7?
3) If the above questions not the case, what am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance,

Which user id did you specify when you ran:

C:\ibi\DEVSTU~1\srv77\wfs\bin\edastart -change admin_id

?

I use my own windows/lan id and password for that configuration.

I don't think Dev.Studio 7.7 is even available in a 64-bit version so the underlying system should not be a problem.

If you're planning to install and use a full standalone Reporting Server in your local environment then yes, you should install that one before DevStudio. I personally find that unnecessary as Dev.Studio comes bundled with a Reporting Server anyway and everything I do in my "enterprise server" I can do with that one as well.

Just verify your user credendials in edastart -change admin_id and try again.

Thanks njsden.

I am using my network credentials. The interesting thing is, it is showing me the webfocus server console up to some extinct.

Take a look at edaprint.log for any messages that may give you a hint as to what is failing.

If you can start you server with security OFF and it works, then I would discard any installation problem and the whole issue would be surrounding security but I'm not sure exactly what. edaprint.log should help you find out why.

After I uninstalled and installed, it works.

Thanks for your help.
