1.4 FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

After server installation, the PC on the same network segment fails to access to the

background web page?

In general, this kind of situation is caused by the server’s access permission. First check

whether the server network is normal, and then check whether the server’s firewall is opened;

if yes, first turn off the firewall, and then attempt to access the back stage web page.

If mysql or other database has been installed, when installing a server, prompt that

“3306”port is occupied, but the process cannot be closed, how to deal with it?

In general, a separate PC is used as our back end server, thus it can be guaranteed that our

system is not interfered by other factors at work, impacting the performance of the system.

Therefore, please use a PC without other software or tools as the host.

During use, after the software is installed, the background window is in a jitter state,

and web has no response?

Under the Windows environment, some network plugins modify network protocol settings of

the system, so that the system’s background cannot be normally used.After disassembling the

plug-in, restart the server to return to normal. Therefore, we suggest using a separate PC as a

server when arranging the system server to ensure that the system server can run safely and

continuously.

After installing the server and opening the web page, click some jump controls on the

page but have no response?

This kind of situation should be caused by incomplete server setup environment. Therefore,

please get ready for setup environment according to hardware and software configuration

requirement of our setup environment. See the system operating instruction for server



installation.

When a single PC is used as a server and other PC logs in the background to import

programs,import is unsuccessful, and the background server is disconnected?

When other PC imports programs, it is required to upload the program package to the local

server.In the process of upload, if the server is installed with the antivirus software, it will

intercept the operation orsafety tips pop up. In this case, there are two ways to solve this

problem:

1) Directly exit out of the security software such as antivirus software;

2) When safety tips pop up, select and confirm all trust options.
