used for creating the database in step 1 can be deleted from the database server if
necessary.
4. O nce the database is created, the user name and the temporary password password will be
displayed.
Important! The user will need to change the temporary password on the login page
(http:// < server _ name > /FlexiCapture12/Login). O nce the temporary password is changed, the user will be
redirected to the Administration and Monitoring Console.
5. The user that creates the database automatically gets administrative privileges. The administrator
also has the permissions to change the settings of the Application Server, upload projects, grant
access permissions for projects, create new users, and manage their roles and access
permissions. The administrator can grant the administrator role to another user and delegate
further configuration of the system to that user. The user that creates the database cannot be
deprived of the administrator role, neither can that user ’ s account be deleted.
Connecting to an existing database
Instead of creating a new database, the administrator may need to connect to an existing database (e.g.
if the connection settings have been changed).
Note: For databases created in earlier versions of ABBYY FlexiCapture, see Upgrading databases and
projects created in an earlier version of the program.
To connect to an existing database, do the following:
1. O n the computer where the Application Server is installed, open the Administration and Monitoring
Console and click Settings → Application Server to open the page
http:// < server _ name > /FlexiCapture12/Monitoring/ # Settings/DbConn under the Windows
administrator account.
If the Application Server is already connected to a database, start at step 4.
2. Click Connect to Existing Database .
3. In the form that opens, complete the following fields: the name of the Microsoft SQL Server
instance, the name of the existing database, the user that administers the database server, the
path to the file store (if any).
4. Use the Test Connection button to check the entered values. If the test is successful, click OK .
5. Now your server is connected to the database. If an Upgrade link is displayed on the Settings →
Application Server page next to the database version, then you should upgrade the database
before you proceed.
6. If ABBYY FlexiCapture authentication has never been used for this database, to the user under
whose account the Administration and Monitoring Console is running will be issued the temporary
password password .
