Aloha POS Terminal Keeps Rebooting!

[Wrice81]

I have read the other post regaurding this and i have tried the steps and its not working for me i delete the Exiting doc and then i went in to the aloha.ini and added the line
"IF EXIST %iberdir%/aloha/tmp/exiting del
%iberdir%/aloha/tmp/exiting

and its still not working any more information possibly in greater detail would be really appreciated.

does the terminal reboot at determining fileserver 0? if not when does it reboot? you can attach a keyboard to the terminal and hold down the shift key as its loading to desktop, that will prevent aloha from starting. check the debout and post here.

Ill Post that but yeah i have a keyboard attached thats how i was able to add the commands in aloha.ini give me a few minutes.

Here is another question would it be easy to just flash the terminal and reload? if so how would i go about doing this?

 

[Wrice81]

It says that its saving Windows settings and reboots and in the debout there is nothing current in there the last thing from debout on this terminal dates to April 20th.

it looks like its trying to end of day. locate the aloha.ini file in c:/aloha/data. change the dob to read current date.

Version 6.4X? Be sure an aloha.ini file exists
