    1. Hi Ksa Pak,

      Good day to you.

      Please run the Ingress DB Installer to reconnect the Ingress Software with MYSQL database. You can refer to scenario 1 for more information to run Ingress DB Installer from this link: http://www.fingertectips.com/2013/12/ingress-frequently-asked-questions.html

      And for Ingress server, please make sure the IP is 127.0.0.1 (localhost IP) and port is 3000.

    1. Hi Mr Hassan Web,

      Referring to the problem, kindly close your Ingress program and Ingress Server. Then go to Control Panel > Administrator Tools > Services, and restart the Attendance Service, Ingress Server and MySQL. Once finished, please run the Ingress DB Installer again. Make sure you completed all 3 step in the Ingress DB Installer before you can open back your Ingress program.
      In the mean time please take note, make sure you already installed the latest version of Ingress software (v3.0.6.32). You can get this installer from the following link.
