Hey guys,

This is the first time I'm using ManicTime. I have Installed the server in my computer by following the instructions in the website Documentation. I'm using the "SQLCE" file as the database (<add name="ManicTimeServer" connectionString="Data Source=Data\ManicTimeServer.sdf;Max Database Size=4000"/>),

Once I finish creating the database file in the CMD using the command "ManicTimeServer.exe createdb".

As per the documentation by default the user who created the database will be the admin of server. My username is "Tester", So it shows "CLIENTPC_4\Tester" has been added as administrator. But my windows account doesn't have a password. I've pointed to "localhost:8080" It's asks for the username and password. I gave username as "Tester" and left the password blank. It logs into the "CLIENTPC_4\Guest" and advanced options aren't showing.


Please guide me how to login as "Admin" (i.e. "CLIENTPC_4\Tester") & also there is no logout button. Once It logs me in as "CLIENTPC_4\Guest" I can't logout or change the user.

Thank you.

The only thing I can suggest is to try to add guest as admin. In console write.

ManicTimeServer addadmin CLIENTPC_4\Guest

Or create some password protected user and set it as admin and you can use it just to view the data on the server.

Thank you for the reply Admin,

I've tried as you suggested. See the output below,

Quote:
C:\Program Files (x86)\ManicTimeServer>ManicTimeServer.exe addadmin CLIENTPC_4\Guest
Starting console host...
ManicTime server 2.5.0.2 started.
Connecting to database...
Connected. Checking database version...
Database version: 6; Supported version: 6
Database version is up-to-date.
Setting current user (CLIENTPC_4\Tester) as server administrator.
Checking if user already exists...
User found.

User CLIENTPC_4\Tester successfully set as server administrator.

Stopping...
ManicTime server 2.5.0.2 stopped.
Stopped.


It's not taking the user parameter I've passed. What could be problem ?

Sorry, our help and my suggestion were both wrong, it should be
ManicTimeServer.exe addadmin:CLIENTPC_4\Guest

: between addadmin and username
