Scroll Prev Top Next More

The first User to login to EventPro will become an Administrator, as long as that User has sufficient Rights to the SQL Server.

1.Run EventPro.

NOTE: If you are running Windows in a domain environment, and use a domain user account to log on to a Windows Server 2012-based domain controller, you may receive Error 1301.  This is not an EventPro error.  It is a Windows bug wherein certain security identifiers (SIDs) cannot be mapped.

The hotfix for this bug can be found on the Microsoft Support website, KB2830145.  Download and run the hotfix.  Note that the hotfix will not run if Windows Update Services are set to disabled.  

After you run the hotfix and restart the computer, you can run EventPro again.

c.Edit Administrator Security Role: Adjust the Administrator Security Role so that it only applies to Administrators.
