Documentation for Crowd 2.0.x. Documentation for other versions of Crowd is available too.
This page is relevant if you have installed Crowd as a Windows service.
Problems may occur when trying to set up Crowd to run as a Windows service with JDK 1.6. The problem is caused by a failure to locate MSVCR71.DLL
, which can be found in your %JAVA_HOME%/bin
. There are two options to resolve this problem:
%JAVA_HOME%/bin
to PATH
, then restart the server.MSVCR71.DLL
to system path: either C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32
or C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32
Please refer to our Knowledge Base article if you need more details of this issue.
Windows Server 64-bit will not start Crowd as a service as the tomcat.exe
that ships is 32-bit. Install a 64-bit JDK and set JAVA_HOME to its location. Then follow the same steps above for Installing Crowd as a Windows Service. You'll need to replace {CROWD_INSTALL}\apache-tomcat-5.5.20\bin\tomcat.exe
with one compiled for 64-bit from these locations:
