Description
Description: The iPWW configuration tool 'swpref.exe' provides the ability to set the "Hide Login Dialog" functionality so users are not prompted to enter login credentials. To allow this functionality, password checking must be disabled on both the iPWW and iProcess Engine. After a new installation of the iPWW setting, the configuration to "Hide Login Dialog" in the General Options does not hide the login dialog even if passwords are not enabled on the iPE.
Resolution
To enable this functionality, an actual RPC Server connection entry has to be manually added to the client registry. In the registry, add a new key named, 'RPC Servers' to:
“HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Staffware plc\Staffware Client\Default", i.e. “HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Staffware plc\Staffware Client\Default\RPC Servers”
To the 'RPC Servers' key, add a new String Value named "Server1" and add the connection details to the iPE server. For example,
node1,391876,0,114 on node1
where
node1 = machine node name where iPE resides.
391876 = RPC number 0 = No password required 114 on node1 = comment/description
Note that the third parameter needs to be 0 (zero) to disable the password requirement. Once this has been defined and saved the Hide Login Dialog will work correctly.
