Commander4j Interface Services Install

From version 4.21 the process for creating a Service for interfacing has become much easier to setup. If you have a prior version of Commander4j and you have already created a service you should use the "uninstall service" shortcut to remove it and then follow the instructions below to create a new service.

Assumptions

Although you can connect to more that one database with a single install of C4J, only one of those databases can be managed by a single service. If you want to operate more than one database on a single server it is recommended that you install the application into a unique folder for each database. For example you could use the following structure.

Service for Database 1 (Company 1)

C:\MyApps\Company1\Commander4j

Service for Database 2 (Company 2)

C:\MyApps\Company2\Commander4j

The physical database can reside anywhere on the network, you don't need to have the C4J Application/Service installed on the database server.
