In the next dialog that appears you can define the Cinegy Archive Service published address:

If you are installing Cinegy Workspace on the same computer where the Cinegy Archive Service is installed, the published address is defined automatically. It corresponds to the directory where the Cinegy Archive Service is installed (e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Cinegy\Cinegy Archive Service\ ).

If Cinegy Workspace is being installed on a different computer, the "Cinegy Archive Service address" field will be empty.

To change the default Cinegy Archive Service address, press the "Change" button; the following "Cinegy Archive Service URL" dialog will appear:

Here enter via the keyboard a different Cinegy Archive Service URL in the following structure: http://<Server name>:<Port number>/ICinegyDataAccessService, where:

Port number – the port number used by the Cinegy Archive Service.

Alternatively, you can change the default path to the folder where the Cinegy Archive Service is installed via the "Browse" button.

Note	The defined installation folder should be shared for the user installing Cinegy Workspace.

Enter the SQL Server name via the keyboard or by pressing the "…" button and choosing the required server name from the pull-down list.

To use trusted connection, select the corresponding option or leave it unselected and enter a different user name and password.

Note	"Trusted connection" means that the login name and the password, which you are using to log in into the network, will be used for the trusted connection to the SQL Server. This must be set up on the SQL Server side; otherwise the login will fail.

Press the "Connect" button; if the user whose ID you entered does not have enough rights to connect to the defined SQL Server, you will be informed about it with the error message.

When the connection to the defined SQL Server is established, a list of available databases is loaded in the "Database" list. Choose the desired one; its version will be defined automatically and written to the "Version" field.

Press "OK" to apply your settings and return to the previous window.

Now you are ready to install Cinegy Workspace. If you would like to change any of your settings, go back to the previous dialog boxes by pressing the "Back" button.
