Automation Anywhere 5.0 AutoLogin

[nighthawkn117]

Hello,

I have had no success with the Automation Anywhere Auto login. I find that every time the computer reboots the automation software does NOT login properly. I have all the fields setup right, however it does not seem to work.

I am using it with Windows server 2008. The password is already configured in the settings.

Any light you can shed on this would be great appreciated.

Thank you

Hello,

Unfortunately, Auto-Login feature is currently not supported in Windows server 2008 and Windows Vista.

What about Automation Anywhere Service? How come I cannot get the service to install on Windows Server 2008.

Also when your site said you support Windows Server 2008. So I set it up using Server 2008. Your site didn't mention anything about some features not being supported.

Thank you

Hello,

Automation Anywhere Service.exe is needed for Auto-login feature and as this feature is currently not supported in Windows server 2008 hence Automation Anywhere Service.exe is not installed on your machine.

Would've been nice to know before I setup my whole machine as 2008. When I saw that you support 08 I installed it on 08. Has a fix been released for this yet?

Thank You

Hey nighthawk, did you ever find a workaround for win 2008 server? or did you give up and change to a different OS?
