In order to use old documents we installed a jfserver.exe (Vers. 4.2.206) on a w2k server. But it looks as so, that this software doesn't run stable on w2k. It runs fine under NT4 with a SP not higher than 3.
But to satisfy our network security requirements, today we need at least NT4 with SP6.


Does anybody have ideas / experience to make this Software runing stable?

Btw.: I searched the web, but "www.jetform.com" seems no longer to exist?

Hi Spartacus,

JetForm does not exist anymore. It was aquired by Adobe.

I have some contacts that still work with it. Let me know what do you mean by not running stable so we can try to help.

Hi Bader,

the thing is, that we have running jfserver.exe on a w2k system. On that system printing stucks, let's say two or three times a day. In that case we have to stop and restart jfserver.exe.

Hi Spartacus,

Can you elaborate more on the problem?
What is your printing configuration, and how is your jfserver configuration? Is there any code involved? Can you cut and paste?

Please send me more info and the symptoms, and if I can't help you then I can hook you up with someone at Adobe.

RH

Hi RH,

don't know much about jfserver. I am this one who stop and start jfserver if printout stucks.
The only thing what a know at the moment:
jfserver runs together with a programm called "copy manager" which is, maybe selfmade (unitl know I thougth both programmes are a set from jetform.com.
If printing stucks, we always close and start both programms. I have no glue, where how to configure jfserver.

So maybe, for the first, it is better if I ask only one question:
Sould jfserver.exe (Vers. 4.2.206) run without any probs on w2k?
If that is the case, we should focus the "copy manager". !

Hi Spartacus,

JFServer for Windows should be stable. You should not experience printing problems.
The version that you, however, is pretty old. That doesn't mean that it should give you problems.

I would suggest you check task.ini and the log file to see what's causing your problems.

Hi RH,

I tried already, to find something in the event logger. But I found nothing which seems to come from jferver. Task.ini is one more possibility, thank you.
