Note: |
For security purposes, it is recommended that you install the Ajera application and the database on separate servers. |
Ajera stores your project and financial information in a Structured Query Language (SQL) database. Ajera automatically pulls data from the SQL database tables to create client invoices, generate reports, and perform other tasks for you.
The Ajera installation automatically installs Microsoft SQL Server 2019 Express as its database on your server. Your database size and the number of Ajera users may require that you upgrade to a full version of Microsoft SQL Server 2019.
Notes: | Downloading the Ajera program files as well as communication back to the server occurs over TCP/IP port 80 (or 443 for Secure Sockets Layer [SSL]), allowing for easy passage through corporate and personal firewalls. Ajera can coexist with an installation of SharePoint that is deployed with Windows Small Business Server. Ajera cannot coexist on a server where SharePoint virtualizes URL processing, bypassing Internet Information Services (IIS) authentication mechanisms. |
If your firm determines that you need to install a full version of Microsoft SQL Server or if you install SQL on a drive other than the C: drive on your Ajera server, you must specify an instance name of Axium during the SQL installation. Refer to the Microsoft SQL Server website for installation information.
Caution: | During the Ajera installation, the system looks for the SQL instance named Axium. If the Ajera installation does not find that name, Ajera installs Microsoft SQL Server 2019 Express. |
Caution: |
Without the correct hardware and software (such as supported web browsers or Microsoft Windows), you cannot access Ajera’s full functionality. |
Caution: | If you choose to continue, the system overwrites your existing databases and you will lose your existing Ajera data. To preserve your existing data and update Ajera to the latest release, click Cancel and complete the steps described in the Update Ajera section of this guide. |
- If you did not install SQL for Ajera, the system may prompt you to allow access to your computer, depending on your User Account Control settings in the Control Panel. Click Allow.
Notes: | The drive letter must be local to the server, not on network-attached storage or a mapped drive letter. Do not enter the location of the database. |
Congratulations! Ajera is now installed
