minimum system requirements passwork is not resource demanding, and the number of required servers depends on the number of active users, the amount of data stored and the system fault tolerance requirements see the technical requirements preparing and receiving the archive open powershell as "administrator" using the start context menu right click on the start icon in the lower left corner of the screen select "windows powershell (administrator)" from the context menu using the start menu left click on the start icon in the lower left corner of the screen write powershell open powershell as "administrator" with the combination — ctrl + shift + enter when using windows server 2016, you must enable the tls 1 2 security protocol using the command powershell \[net servicepointmanager] securityprotocol = \[net securityprotocoltype] tls12 get the passworkmodule zip archive into the current directory powershell if ( not (test path "$pwd\passworkmodule zip")) { (new object system net webclient) downloadfile( "https //repos passwork pro/repository/powershell/passworkmodule zip", "$pwd\passworkmodule zip" ) write host "module successfully received" foregroundcolor green } else { write host "archive with the module already exists" foregroundcolor red } in case of errors, the archive can be downloaded manually https //repos passwork pro/repository/windows powershell/passworkmodule zip unzip the powershell module powershell # get the location of powershell modules $windowsmodulepaths = $env\ psmodulepath split ";" | where object { $ like "c \windows " } \# unzip the powershell module to the directory expand archive ` path "$pwd\passworkmodule zip" ` destinationpath $windowsmodulepaths force \# delete the passworkmodule zip archive remove item "$pwd\passworkmodule zip" installation start the online installation of passwork powershell install passwork method online v 6 actions performed by the script checking the operating system version verify and retrieve certificate from client portal checking the available version from the client portal prepare and install mongodb installation of administration utilities install and configure php checking and installing iis with additional extensions getting and moving passwork code web server setup with passwork website creation setting up a passwork website in conjunction with php process of executing the installation script the script will perform a user rights check and perform the download, installation and configuration of the components if errors occur, the powershell shell will display the errors during execution, the script requests the api key from the customer portal once complete, the address to connect to passwork via a web browser will be displayed this is what a successful installation looks like setup wizard once installed and configured, passwork will be available at https //your servername by default, passwork uses a self signed certificate that is automatically generated during installation, so the first time you open the page you will see a message saying that the browser does not trust the certificate of the site choose language as the first step, the system will offer to choose the interface language system parameters check the checklist of parameters will show if all necessary components are installed on your server database connection you must use the default mongodb address to connect encryption key passwork will generate a new key for server encryption if passwork is connecting to an existing database, specify the encryption key to be used please use a key generated by passwork using keys generated by third party tools may cause errors license keys you can download the license keys in your passwork customer portal or request them from your managers setting up your own ssl certificate by default, passwork generates a self signed certificate after installation, you can switch to using full ssl certificates use your own certificate for certificates issued by a trusted issuer for certificates issued by domain certification authorities of your organization open "server manager" → "tools" → "internet information services (iis) manager" → "server certificates" → and click "import" after importing, go to the passwork website, open "bindings" and select the imported web certificate for the https protocol use let's encrypt if there is no domain ca (certificate issued by a trusted ca), but there is a public dns name of the server, you can configure let's encrypt issue a trusted win acme certificate (let's encrypt) passwork will be made available over https using a certificate from let's encrypt configure background tasks background tasks are tasks that are executed by the scheduler in the background for example, ldap synchronisation, loading favicons, and other tasks that are time consuming, persistent, or resource demanding see a guide on configuring windows task scheduler
