Publications. Installing and configuring a thin client Thin client 1C enterprise for windows

Task: speed up work with the 1C program on user workstations.
Tools: platform 1Сver8.2, configuration enterprise accounting KORP editions 2.0 and 3.0, salary configuration and personnel management. A server with Windows on which we will install an IIS web server, a browser, a workstation, although it is not necessarily possible to do everything from the server.

After installing the platform 1C 8.2 on a computer, we see the possibility of several options for launching 1C - 1C Enterprise and 1C Enterprise (thin client). After reading the administrator's guide from the delivery box, I personally realized that the 8.2 platform can work with the 1C configuration in several ways:

  • Very heavy, fat client, especially for ancient hardware, on PCs released in 2005 like Celeron 2.0 with a bus frequency of 400 MGz and 512 MB of memory, it is simply not possible to work with 1C 8, the application hangs so that the joy of buying a modern product immediately disappears. At first, after version 7.7, I was perplexed why the client 1C 8.2 so dumb. And I asked 1C for PC system requirements for work. And this is how they should be Minimum system requirements for a workstation for 1C 8.2:
  1. Operating system requirements:

1.1. Windows 2000 with Service Pack 4

1.2. Windows XP with Service Pack 3

1.3. Windows Vista

  1. Minimum amount of random access memory (RAM):

2.1. For Windows 2000 SP4, Windows XP SP3 - 256 MB

2.2. For Windows Vista, Windows 7 - 512 MB

  1. Processor requirements (CPU):

3.1. Intel and AMD with a frequency of at least 1.8 GHz

  1. Requirements for the video subsystem:

4.1. Video adapter supporting at least 1024*768 dpi resolution

4.2. Monitor with a resolution of at least 1024*768 dpi

  1. Go online to obtain a software license.

At first sight 1C 8.2 not the most demanding program. But I would like to add that it’s nice to work with the 1C thick client on a PC with a dual-core CPU and RAM Oh in 1GB, and it’s very uncomfortable on outdated hardware.

  • Using a thin client. He really seemed faster at work and uses controlled forms to work. Or rather, it requires for work accounting edition 3.0, For accounting edition 2.0 there is no software interface for performing work in a thin client, and looking ahead, there is no web client. So don’t be surprised if, when opening a thin client for working with 1C, you see a desktop tab and three pairs of buttons and think what else an accountant needs, a calendar so as not to miss reporting and a calculator to calculate salaries.
    In a thin client, for the program to work, a protection key located both on the client side and a key installed on the web server can be used. 1C 8.2, and the web server must have a network key, that is, if hardware, then network ( red is the network key, blue is the local single-user key), and the software key itself is network-based. Well, the calculation of licenses can be done as license manager, so 1C enterprise server if you have a license for it.
  • Web client, in my opinion, the best solution for working with the program, the software is not tied to the platform, and you can work even from the moon if you have an Internet connection. In operation, this option seemed very fast; the load when working via the Web falls on the Web server. And if you have strong hardware on the server side, the option of working through a web client is good. Licensing when working through the 1C 8.2 Web client carried out by a Web server, license manager, or 1C server. The web client is an ideal solution for working with 1C if the fleet of accountants’ workstations has not been updated for a long time.

Note: through a web client and a thin client today, it seems possible to work only with accounting 3.0, and even then the functionality of accounting 3.0 did not reach the functionality of accounting 2.0, you can read about this here: http://www.1c.ru/news/info.jsp?id=15068 Configurations from 1C for salaries and personnel with managed forms do not yet exist. It is possible to use the configuration written by the company Fireplace – “1C-Kamin: Salary. Version 5.0"

Setting up 1C 8.2 to work with thin andwebclient

For the 1C thin client to work, it is not at all necessary to configure a web server; the thin client allows you to work with the database and configuration locally, in a network version, through the enterprise 1C server, web server.

To work with 1С8.2 You need to configure a web server through a browser. To do this, install and configure IIS

  • Installing IIS

Installation, removal of programs -> installation of windows components -> application server -> composition

  • In the wwwroot folder we create a directory for the website 1c8x

  • In folder 1c8x create a default.vrd file with the following contents


Xmlns:xs=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema
xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance
base="/1c8x"
ib="File=C:\Base;">

Attribute base points to the relative path to the created virtual application folder, the attribute ib connection string to the database; in this case, the database is located on the same server as the web server.

  • Create a new one website or virtual directory

  • Let's move on to setting up the node, home directory tab, everything is standard here:

  • Installing the platform 1С8X to the web server, during installation we must install extension modules web server

  • Let's register the Web services adapter. To do this, in the node properties 1C8x let's go to the home directory tab, click the setup button to configure the application and add an extension mapping, file wsisapi.dll from folder 1cv82\bin

This article will discuss in detail the algorithm for installing the client part of the 1C:Enterprise system. 8.3 (for versions 8.2 , 8.1 And 8.0 The installation algorithm is similar to the one about installing the 1C:Enterprise system 7.7 I wrote) in operating systems of the . Typical options for the operation of 1C:Enterprise are considered, and a brief description of all components of the system will be provided.

0. Basic information about the 1C:Enterprise system

The 1C:Enterprise system is a set of software modules designed for the development and use of application solutions ( configurations) - on accounting and automation of economic activities of enterprises. The software modules of the 1C:Enterprise system are universal and can work with any configuration. R Working with information bases is possible as in file, and in client-server option.

In the case of working with a file information base, the database files are located either directly on the computer of the user working in the program “1C:Enterprise”, or on a network resource to which “1C:Enterprise” is connected to work with the information base. The figures below show the most common scenarios for the 1C:Enterprise system working with file databases.

This mode of operation is only suitable for information bases with which a small number of users work simultaneously.

If it is expected that a large number of users will work with the information base simultaneously, or a significant load on the information base is expected, you should use server cluster "1C:Enterprise". In this case, the database files will be located in a separately installed DBMS (database management system), and the server cluster will interact with this DBMS for the end user. In general, the operation scheme of the 1C:Enterprise system will then be as follows:

I wrote in detail about installing a 1C:Enterprise server cluster in the article. Next we will talk only about installation client application the 1C:Enterprise system, i.e., system modules necessary to work with file information databases or to connect to an existing 1C:Enterprise server cluster. For this we need:

  1. A computer capable of installing a client application of the 1C:Enterprise system running Windows OS.
  2. Local administrator rights on this computer.
  3. Distribution kit for installing modules of the 1C:Enterprise system. This example uses the version 8.3.4.389 . Installation of modules of the 1C:Enterprise system of earlier versions is similar.
  4. or , suitable for the required 1C:Enterprise operating mode.

1. Installation of 1C:Enterprise system components

Open the directory with the 1C:Enterprise installation files and run the filesetup.exe.

The 1C:Enterprise 8 installation assistant will start, click “ Further" on the first page.

On the next page you can change the folder for installing 1C:Enterprise modules by clicking the button Change"and specifying a new path for installation, and you also need to select the components that will be installed. The list of components depends on what needs to be installed. Depending on the distribution type, not all components may be available for installation. If you need to install a component (or cancel the installation), you need to mark it by clicking the icon to the left of the component name (or the Space), in the menu that appears, select one of the options:

  • This component will be installed on your local hard drive.
  • This component will not be available.

Here is a brief description of the installed components:

  • 1C:Enterprise— the main components of 1C:Enterprise, including components for administration, configuration, thick and thin clients.
  • 1C:Enterprise - thin client— thin client components only for working in client-server mode.
  • 1C:Enterprise - thin client, file version— thin client components, including components for working with the file version of the infobase.
  • Server 1C:Enterprise— components of the 1C:Enterprise server (read more about installing the 1C:Enterprise server).
  • Web server extension modules— web server extension modules required for the operation of the web client and Web services (read more about setting up web access to 1C:Enterprise databases).
  • Administration of the 1C:Enterprise server— additional components for administering a cluster of 1C:Enterprise servers.
  • Interfaces in different languages— user interfaces in various languages.
  • 1C:Enterprise configuration storage server— components of the 1C:Enterprise configuration storage server.
  • Converter IB 1C:Enterprise 7.7— information base converter.

Having selected the necessary components for installation, click “ Further».

At the next step, you need to select the interface language to be used in the future (the operating system language is the default). Having specified the interface language, click “ Further».

Click " Install" to start the installation of the 1C:Enterprise system.

Upon completion of the installation process, the assistant will offer to install the protection driver - HASP Device Driver. It is necessary to install the protection driver only if the USB port given a HASP4 NET hardware protection key will be installed on the computer (the driver installation can be performed later using the menu item " Start» — « Programs» — « 1C Enterprise 8» — « Installing HASP Device Driver"). Leave or remove the flag "Install protection driver" and click " Further».

If the installation is successful, the final page of the installation assistant appears. If you leave the flag " Open Readme file", then a file will be opened with information that seems to be recommended to be read before using this version of the system. Click " Ready» to complete the wizard.

2. Adding an infobase to the list of infobases

During installation, a shortcut to launch 1C:Enterprise will be created on the desktop. If you launch it, the 1C:Enterprise launcher will open with an empty list of infobases and a proposal to add a new infobase to the list.

The next steps depend on the specific situation:

  • If you need to create a new database to start accounting, click " No"And first of all, we install a standard configuration template, and only then, based on the template, we create a new information base. Read more about this in the article
  • If you need to connect to an existing information base, click “ Yes"and add this database to the list of information bases. Read the article on how to do this.

3. Installing a 1C:Enterprise license

Software products "1C:Enterprise" version 8can be protected from copying by hardware LPT or USB keys such as HASP4 Net from the company Aladdin , or using a software licensing system. It is also possible to use both types of protection simultaneously. After installing the system "1C:Enterprise" and creating information databases, all that remains is to install a license to operate "1C:Enterprise".

  • I wrote about installing and configuring HASP protection keys in the article “”
  • I wrote about the software licensing system in the article “”, as well as about the case of obtaining a license for the first time in the article “”.

Did this article help you?

The first thing you need to do is extract the thin client distribution from the archive. In the unpacked folder, find the installation file “setup.exe” with the 1C logo and run it. Select the default folder that the installer offers you (by default, this folder is C:/Program files/1cv82/), you can also select your own folder. After installation is complete, a shortcut “1C: Enterprise” or “1C: Enterprise” should appear on the desktop. Launch it. It may take a few seconds for the program to launch.

You can read how to download the thin client distribution.

Adding a new database

If 1C mode was already installed on your computer, the mode will automatically find the path to the database. If you install the mode for the first time, the list of databases will be empty and a window will appear on the screen asking you to add to the list information base.

Rice. 1

When you click on the “Yes” button, a window should appear in front of you with two options “Creating a new information base” and “Adding an existing one to the list”, you need to select the second option. If you used the services of a company to develop a 1C information base for you to manage an online store, then this company will provide you with the name of the database of your online store when concluding an agreement.

Rice. 2

In the information base name line, you indicate the name of your database, for example, “Working database”. In the type of database location, three options will be offered; you need to select “On a web server”. In the next window, in the top line, specify the path to the database, for examplehttp://mit.paas1c.ru/database_name. Next, select the option “Do not use proxy”, authentication method - select automatically.

Rice. 3

In the next “Launch Options” window, in the authentication option specify “Select automatically”, connection speed - “Select at startup”, main launch mode - “Thin Client”, version 1C: Enterprise - 8.2.


Rice. 4

Installation of the distribution kit for working in Thin Client mode and adding the existing infobase has been successfully completed.

If you are updating your client, then selecting the default folder is a desirable option. You can manually select the client location path if you are installing it for the first time.

If you are using a proxy, simply provide your address and login.

Starting with version 8.2, the 1C program gained the ability to work in thin client mode, which has limited functionality. Despite the fact that quite a lot of time has passed since the update was released, a large number of users still do not fully understand why this innovation is necessary, in what situations it is effective to use and what is its difference. In this material we will talk in detail about what the 1C thin client is, its advantages and disadvantages, as well as how to work with it.

What is a “thin client”?

In order to understand the functionality of this program client, you need to understand why it is called “thin”. The answer to this question is quite simple and lies in the fact that this mode of operation is very limited in its capabilities compared to the “thick” version.

The application's "thin client" has a more limited set of built-in language types, which is intended exclusively for transferring data and changing it. Everything related to working with the database is executed on the server in this case. Using this version of the application, a managed 1C interface is developed, which allows you to optimize the company's work.

1C “thin clients” are capable of receiving ready-made data via a web connection, which has already been prepared in advance on the server side.

In addition, the use of this type of application is possible using one of three technologies:

  • Via the web (using an Internet connection);
  • Via TCP/IP protocol (client-server type);
  • Directly with the database.

Internet connection

The “thin client” has the ability to interact with the “1C: Enterprise” program using a web connection to the Internet. In this case, work occurs with a specially configured web server using the http data transfer protocol. However, the web server itself works with the 1C: Enterprise program via the TCP/IP protocol or directly.

Important: you must use one of the following systems as web servers:

  • Apache;

Client-server connection

In this case, thin clients connect to servers directly using the TCP/IP data transfer protocol.

Direct database connection

In this case, there is direct interaction between the client and the application database. To organize this work scheme, a special environment is created on the computer on which the client is installed, which from the program’s point of view is perceived as a server. In order to organize it, you need to:

  • Download the necessary server files to your computer;
  • Load application configuration.

Benefits of a thin client

If we put the process technology aside and move on to the immediate advantages that using this version of the 1C client provides, we can highlight several serious advantages. These include:

  • Mobility;
  • Reducing the load on the communication channel;
  • Minimum system requirements;
  • Reducing company costs.

Mobility

A hardware “thin client” allows the user to be anywhere in the world, as long as there is an Internet connection. For example, suppose that the head of a department is on vacation abroad. In order to make any important decision, he needs to familiarize himself with the latest reporting data. The full version of the application requires a local network connection, which is why in this case the “thin client” comes to the rescue. It allows you to work with the database with a regular Internet connection.

Another example. Sometimes, when making transactions in a branch that does not have a connection to the local network, for example, in a company warehouse, it is necessary to download data from the warehouse database for subsequent loading into the accounting department.

Of course, such manipulations take time and cause inconvenience. “Thin clients” are precisely used to simplify such tasks. If you have a web connection, you can easily transfer data to a common 1C database directly from the warehouse.

In addition, “thin clients” use a network channel exclusively for data transfer. The full version of the application also uses it to transmit service data necessary for the operation of the software, which reduces the useful bandwidth of the channel.

Thus, “thin clients” allow you to work in the 1C program where there is no web connection with good bandwidth.

Low system requirements

The situation is similar with the system requirements of the program. To run the full version, more powerful computers are required, since the application uses the system’s processor and RAM. “Thin clients” 1C are much less demanding on the resources of a personal computer. This is what allows it to be used even on weak systems.

Reducing company costs

This point follows from all the previous ones. Due to the fact that the development of a managed interface allows you to optimize the workflow, save time and resources of the company, this leads to a reduction in the company’s overall costs for accounting.

Disadvantages of the thin client

Of course, every coin has a downside. The "thin client" also has some inconveniences and limitations, which cannot be ignored. These include:

  • Requirement of a powerful server;
  • Limited functionality;
  • Unusual interface.

Requires a powerful server

If a large number of “thin clients” interact with the main server via a web connection, it will be subject to a fairly large load, which imposes certain technical requirements. However, using the full version of the program does not load much less, so this disadvantage is very relative.

Limited functionality

As mentioned above, the light version of the application has very limited functionality. For example, it is not possible to work in the “Configurator” mode.

Interface

This drawback gradually disappears over time and with the release of updates, but at first many companies refused to use “thin clients” or tried to avoid it precisely because the application interface was extremely inconvenient and very different from the full version.

To do this, go to your Personal Account in the “My 1C Databases” section and click “ publish» opposite the required base.

To work in the browser, you just need to follow the link provided in the letter and enter the credentials given to you during registration.

2. Install the “thin client” on your computer:

    download the program distribution for Windows.
    To get a distribution for Mac or Linux you need

    unpack the archive and run installation file.

In the installation program window that appears, click the " Further".

On the next page, select the languages ​​you need to install.

Then select the interface language (the default language will be set to the language selected in the operating system) and click “Next”.

Click "Install" to start the installation process.

Once the installation is complete, click "Finish".

Note: the 1C: Enterprise launch platform in the cloud is centrally updated with some frequency. The versions of the thin client and the platform installed on the server must match, therefore, the thin client needs to be updated. This operation can take place automatically; to do this, you need to check the “Run as administrator” checkbox in the shortcut properties.

Before starting 1C Thin Client, you need to configure it to run as administrator.

To do this, right-click on the startup shortcut and select “Properties”

In the window that opens, in the “Shortcut” tab, click the “Advanced” button

In the next window, you need to check the box “Run as administrator” and “OK” and save the changes.

3. Add databases to the thin client

When you launch the Thin Client for the first time, you will be asked to add an infobase; answer “Yes”

In the next window, select “Add to the list of an existing infobase” and “Next”.

At the next stage you need to:

  • indicate the name of the database (this name will be displayed in the list of databases when starting 1C),
  • select the option to connect to the information base “On the Web server”,
  • insert the link to the database into this field (we received this link in the personal account at step 1 of the instructions) click “Next”.

And in the last window, click the “Done” button.

After this, a window with a list of information bases will appear. To enter the information database, you must select the desired database and click “1C:Enterprise”

In the “Web Server Access” window, you must specify the credentials received during registration.

If in the next step you are asked for credentials to log in to 1C, you must select the 1C: Enterprise user you need in the “User” field, enter his password (if available) and click and click “OK”.

4. Configure additional settings

How to make sure that the cloud or database password is not requested?

To do this, select the database you are interested in from the list and click “Change”. In the options window that opens, click “Next”.

You need the line "Additional launch parameters", where you can specify the following parameters separated by a space:

  • /WSN - web service username (in this case ServiceCloud account login)
  • /WSP - web service user password
  • /N - database user name
  • /P - database user password

For example, the line "/WSN scXXXXX /WSP Pa$$W0RD /N NatalyaR /P 2014Skloud"

  • “/WSN scXXXXX /WSP Pa$$W0RD” allows you not to enter a password to access the database via a web link (cloud), where scXXXXX is your login, Pa$$W0RD is your password.
  • “/N NatalyaR /P 2014Sklaud” allows you not to enter database user credentials, where NatalyaR is the user name of the 1C database, 2014Sklaud is the password of the selected user from the 1C database. The parameters can be combined at your discretion.

To bypass the cloud login and password request, you can enter them in the “Infobase Addresses” field (to do this, after starting the thin client, select the database and click “Change”).

Between “https://” and “terminal.site” you should enter the cloud user login and password as follows:

https://scXXXXX:[email protected]/02/scXXXXX_base02

  • those. after “https://” we immediately indicate the login from the cloud and put a colon
  • indicate the password and @
  • we do not change the rest of the link

Enter all data without spaces. After entering the data, click “Next”.

The setup is complete.
