The web browser allows the user access to it, normally it is just
http://localhost/tkclient which you can bookmark in your browser like any other website. Going by your error message, looks like something else is already running on the default web port, yours might be at
http://localhost:81/tkclient
You can also close out the client icon (which shutdowns the database, etc) and then just open it back up as it will then open up the correct weblink when it starts (then you can bookmark for future reference)
is there a way to set the browser as Chrome, currently opens in IE?
Yes, something that requires a little advanced configuration change.
In the timekoin folder, is a file
pms_config.ini, open this file in a text editor (notepad works fine for example).
Half way down the file you'll see a section for browser.
Change the BrowserType from IEXPLORER to EXTERNAL
BrowserType=EXTERNAL
Add this to the BrowserPath section (provided chrome is installed in the same place for you)
BrowserPath="C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"
This can be done for any browser (Safari, Firefox, etc.) I do wish the "default" option would work properly, but it varies from OS to OS (might work on XP, but not on 7 or 8 for example) so that is why it was left at the default Internet Explorer for windows. The user could just copy/paste the link to their favorite browser and bookmark it to use the same interface, but sometimes it is nice to have it start in the right browser from the start.
