Determining the Server Execution User Name
If necessary, you can check the user name of the Server Execution User account.
To determine the Server Execution User name:
1. Right-click My Computer and select Manage.
2. Expand the Services and Applications branch, then click Services.
3. Right-click Avid Workgroup TCP COM Bridge and select Properties.
4. Click the Log On tab.
The Log On tab contains the name of the Server Execution User.
On a cluster system, the Server Execution User name and password must match the
Windows user account that is running the Avid Workgroup Engine Monitor. On a cluster
system, perform the next steps.
5. (Cluster only) Right-click Avid Workgroup Engine Monitor, select Properties, and click the
Log On tab.
The Log On tab displays the Windows user account that is running the Avid Workgroup
Engine Monitor.
6. (Cluster only) Check the following registry key value on each node:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Avid Technology\Workgroup\
Avid Workgroup Server
Check the ExecutionUser value. The Interplay Engine installer uses this value as the default
value for the Server Execution User.
If the account names are different, it means that the Server Execution User has been changed
at some point since the original Interplay Engine installation. Use the Custom install option
when you upgrade the Interplay Engine software and decide if the displayed user is the name
you want to use, or supply a different name and password. Use a regular domain name, such
as “MYDOMAIN\ServerUser” and not the fully qualified domain name, such as
“MYDOMAIN.com\ServerUser.
If you don’t know the correct password for the Server Execution User account, use
NXNServerUser.exe to change the user and password before you perform the upgrade. See
“Re-creating the Server Execution User” on page 232.
