Windows Registry keys will be written by the Exago Installer when installing the Web Application, the Web Service API and the Scheduler Service.

Web Application

The Web Application will add four new keys to the registry. Each key and its contents are described in the tables below.

Note

This section references <web site name>/<virtual directory name> as a placeholder for the IIS web site and virtual directory configured during the installation process. The default values are Default Web Site and Exago respectively.

1. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Exago\ExagoWeb\<web site name>/<virtual directory name>
   This key is used by the installer to determine the installed version number and the location of the installation. It will be updated with each subsequent installation of Exago into the same web site and virtual directory.
   

   Table A

   Name	Type	Description Example
   CreateDate	REG_SZ	Timestamp of the first Exago Web Application installation. e.g. 05/19/2020 15:30:53
   DisplayName	REG_SZ	Installation Web Site followed by the Virtual Directory Name e.g. Default Web Site/Exago
   Location	REG_SZ	Physical location of the installation e.g. C:\Program Files\Exago\ExagoWeb\
   UpdateDate	REG_SZ	Initially set to the installation date. Should be updated whenever Exago is reinstalled. e.g. 05/23/2020 08:12:05

   This section references version as a placeholder for the version of the service installed. For example, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Exago\ExagoMonitoringService.2019.2.183 As this key has the Exago version in it's name, on subsequent update installations of Exago, new keys will be written each time instead of updating this current one.
