Applications using this service

  • SYSPRO Harmony

Getting Started

Installation

  1. Run the SYSPRO.Rules.Engine.Service.exe executable.

    You can obtain the file from the Ports and Downloads section of the InfoZone. Otherwise, contact your local reseller for more information.

    After any port updates, we recommend you restart the service to release any e.net business objects which may be held by the service.

    Reinstalling a service is typically only required if an updated and/or improved version of the service is released.

  2. During the installation you will be required to configure settings for the service.

    Installation field Description
    SYSPRO Application Server Instance This indicates the default instance of SYSPRO with which the service will communicate. SYSPRO instances are reflected in your Windows Registry to identify the Base folder of your SYSPRO install where the necessary .dll and .exe files are located.
    SYSPRO e.net Communications Load Balancer Endpoint This is the TCP-based network protocol (net.tcp://) that points to your SYSPRO e.net WCF Service installation (e.g. net.tcp://localhost:30000/SYSPROWCFService).

Troubleshooting

Debugging and diagnostics

You can troubleshoot errors or failures when using this service by editing the associated config file in elevated mode (i.e. with administrator privileges).

The SYSPRORulesEngineService.exe.config file is located in the folder to which you installed the service and defaults to: C:\Program Files\SYSPRO\SYSPRO Rules Engine Service.

[Note]

You should only edit this file for debugging purposes.

Don't use this as a method to update values for the service. The reason for this is that a wizard installation updates the system registry, which is what is read when using the service. A fresh installation will overwrite these values, which may cause problems when you next run the service.

Service logging

The SYSPRO Rules Data Service outputs an event log to the SYSPRORUL file (Control Panel->Administrative Tools->Event Viewer->Applications and Service Logs) which you can review for diagnosing any problems encountered.
