Download KronoDesk Administration Guide

If you only see the “Microsoft .NET Framework 4 Client Profile” and not the “Microsoft .NET Framework 4
Extended”, then you need to install the additional .NET 4.0 components that are needed for server-based
applications such as KronoDesk to run.
2.1.2. Install SQL Server 2012, 2008 or 2005
Install the appropriate version of the database software, following the instructions provided with the
installation. We recommend SQL Server 2012/2008® Express Edition® for most users. This free version
of SQL Server will offer sufficient performance for most installations and can be easily downloaded from
either the customer area of our website or directly from the Microsoft® web-site at
http://www.microsoft.com/express/sql.
2.1.3. Install Internet Explorer
Install the appropriate version of the browser (we recommend 9.0 or 10.0), following the instructions
provided with the installation. You are free to use Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Google
Chrome or Opera with KronoDesk®. Other browsers (Netscape, Konqueror, etc.) may work with
KronoDesk®, but they have not been exhaustively tested for compatibility by Inflectra®.
2.1.4. Ensure that IIS is installed
On Windows Server installations, IIS is usually installed as part of the factory configuration, whereas on
Windows Vista and XP installations, you typically need to manually add the components to the factory
configuration. The steps that you need to take to verify its installation are listed below for each operating
system:
a) Windows XP or 2003 Server
To check if you have IIS installed, click Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools. Under the
“Administrative Tools folder”, you should see an icon for “Internet Information Services”. If you don’t see
this icon, then it means that you need to add IIS to your computer:
To install IIS, you need to click Start > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs, then choose the option
to “Add / Remove Windows Components” as illustrated below:
