Have you checked that all the 3CX services are started?

 

[dgruehn]

This message was preventing me from accessing the 3CX management console. I went in and manually started the 3CX services and this DID fix the problem. thanks for the help..

I have a problem very similar to this. Only I haven't even been able to get mine up and running. This error is where it stops, along with Error 1068 the dependent group or service failed to start. I have tried to start the services manually, but no dice. I am on Win XP pro sp3

Did the configuration Wizard automatically start at the end of the installation?

You need to complete the wizard to allow it to perform the initial configuration and initialisation of the databases otherwise you will get problems starting the services.

What do the windows logs tell you?

 

[grandpastan]

There was a bit of a wizard, but I don't think I got the whole thing, as I wasn't asked to set up any username or password etc. Really no config. Here is what the log says;

The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( PostgreSQL ) cannot be found.

Try completely uninstalling 3CX and then deleting the 3CX folder from Program files.

Add the ASPNET user to the power users group of the XP workstation.

Then reinstall 3CX - once the install has finished you should get the wizard, just enter the details and let it finish.

PS - you have read the manual and installed IIS and .Net 2.0 first right?

 

[grandpastan]

As instructed, I uninstalled 3CX Phone system and deleted its file. I do have IIS and .Net 2.0 installed and updated, but on restart,and install,still no wizard, although I do get the login for the prog after reboot. I am installing from an Admin profile. Still get the Data server not started message. It was set at manual start in services, so I changed it to Automatic. No difference.

I've exact the same problem. Database server service isn't started and cannot started manually. Using winXP Pro SP3. It worked fine until some weeks ago... Several times re-installed but it didn't make any change. Could someone think about it and help me and the others?

Interesting (and frustrating) problem!

This one had me going for a while too...

The environment was a relatively clean XP Pro SP3 workstation, .Net 1.1, .Net 2.0 SP2, .Net 3.0 SP2, .Net 3.5 SP1, IE8 and Firefox 3.5, also running IIS locally.

Checked all the other settings - .Net 2.0 was enabled in IIS, the ASPNET user was a member of administrators, kept exiting the setup wizard with "Database Server not started" and the PostgreSQL error in the application log.

Tried waiting a while just in case it was a timing thing - no luck, same error.

The last thing I tried (which actually worked) was to remove the ASPNET user from the local administrators group (along with authenticated users) and manually added the ASPNET user to the power users group - re-ran the setup wizard manually from the BIN directory and it worked!

I suspect that it may have been the authenticated users being a member of the administrators group, or the ASPNET user being a member of the administrators group (related to the details of the error in the application log)

This occurred with V7.1.7139 for your ref...

Hope this helps.
