Au Bon Marche has four supermarkets, three petrol stations (fuel outlets) and wholesale businesses in their enterprise. They needed a suitable product to increase business productively while reducing user error. Amicus point of sale system was the perfect candidate for the job, with a fully a scalable platform and multisite capabilities and powerful stock management Amicus could certainly deliver. Deploying Amicus POS on a large scale is quite a stressful and challenging task at the best of times. But when it’s deployed 6,000 miles away from Hobart it’s even more of a challenge. Everything from the System design to shipping the hardware had to be completed.

A customer reported an issue with their Amicus PDA environment.

Amicus PDA is basically a mobile version of our Amicus point of sale software. There was Windows Server 2003, IIS and SQL Server 2005 running merge Replication. Client was receiving 503 Service Unviable Error, upon further investigation this error was logged in the event log. 'Test Pool' is invalid. If it remains invalid when the first request for the application pool is processed, the application pool will be disabled. The data field contains the error number.

I found in IIS that the application pool was disabled, so I enabled the pool but the application still wouldn’t launch. As a temporary solution, I created a new application pool and gave it administration privileges.
