Installing the Campaign server as a Windows™ service

You can install the Campaign server as a Windows™ service so that it starts automatically whenever you start Windows™. The Campaign server computes and processes data.

Complete the following steps to install the Campaign server as a Windows™ service:

Add the bin directory under the Campaign installation directory to the user PATH environment variable. If the PATH environment variable does not exist for the user, create it.

Make sure that you add this path to the user PATH variable, not the system PATH variable.

If the Campaign bin directory exists in the system PATH environment variable, remove it. You do not need it in the system PATH environment variable to install the Campaign server as a service.

If you are upgrading from a previous version of Campaign that had the server installed as a service, stop the service.

Open a command window and change directories to the bin directory under your Campaign installation.

Run the following command to create the Campaign server service: unica_aclsnr -i

The service is created.

Make sure CAMPAIGN_HOME has been created as a system environment variable before starting the Campaign server service.

Open the Unica Campaign Listener Service properties dialog box. Click Log On tab.

Select This account.

Enter the user name (system user) and password, and start the services.
