Enterprise Architect as a Windows Service
« on: June 07, 2016, 09:57:51 pm »
Hello!
Are there any plans to remove the need to develop a Windows Service wrapper as outlined here:

  http://community.sparxsystems.com/tutorials/603-75ea-as-an-unattended-windows-service-on-windows-server-2008r2-and-higher

I would very much like if someone has created this and Open Sourced it or something!

We use EA unattended to generate HTML portals so People can integrate diagrams directly into documentation in Confluence. Maybe there is a Plug-in for Confluence that goes direct to EA.

Thanks for any help or advice,
Eamonn J.

Hi,

You use EA as an unattended service as per the guide you refer to ? We could never get it to work...we need to ensure that there is a user (with Sparx access) always logged into our server (as the first logged in user)...If you did get it to work, are there any tips you can pass on ?

qwerty

No. He's just asking how to do that. And having a user for EA is still the only solution.
