Cannot install pss


User (Legacy)

Recommended Posts

If I try to install the pss extensions, it gets to the point of telling me

to allow interaction with the desktop and then fails. The service is not

installed. I get a .Net exception telling me that it cannot load some types

from ChartFX.PSS.Service.exe.

It seems to be trying to find assemblies that are not local or in the GAC.

I copied the exe to a different directory and ran installutil, which seemed

to report back fine then, but now the service won't start. Any suggestions?

Please try cleaning your EventLog (Application) and then try to restart the

service.

I've seen a behavior where the PSS Service does not get installed properly

because you may need ChartFX.Base.dll in the same folder. Copy this file to

the PSS Service folder and run the exe with the /install parameter. Then

make sure you set the "Interact with Desktop" setting and try to restart the

service.

Note: Even if get to run PSS, this will not improve your OLAP issue in any

significant way.

I will try this.  I was hoping that PSS would allow caching of the chart

thereby giving me a slow load time the first time it is hit, but afterward

making the chart reasonably fast until the cache runs out.

I tried this.  While it did not give me an error, the service now doesn't

start. When I try to start, it goes to a state of "starting" not "started"

and stays that way forever.

Two questions:

1. Any way to get this installed?

2. Is this going to solve my problems, or am I misunderstanding what it

will do. If it is not going to help, I will quit worrying about it. I was

assuming it would cache the grid and make it faster. If I cache for one

week at a time, then only once per week would the server then need to

refresh data from the olap server. If not, let me know and I will quit

trying to get it installed.

Thanks.

If you cache the charts it will help you. I was only thinking about the

"delayed" generation you also get when using PSS (my fault).

Do you get any entries in the eventlog/application after trying to start the

service ?

no, there are no errors, and no events logged.  It just never gets past

"starting..."
