Passwordstate Documentation

Passwordstate App Server Installation ​

Installation instructions for the App Server, to be used with either the Native App, Self Destruct or Browser Extensions features.

App Server Overview ​

This document will detail instructions for installing the Passwordstate App Server, and configuring System wide settings related to this feature. This feature will allow you to use the native Android and iOS Mobile App, but can also be used as a portal for the Self Destruct Messages feature.

You can install the App Server on any server of your choice including the Passwordstate webserver, as long as it can connect directly to your Microsoft SQL Database server.

Your users will also need connectivity to the AppServer to pair their mobile phones, so you'll need to keep that in mind when installing this module.

For more information on how to use the Mobile App once this App Server has been installed, please refer to the Mobile App User Manual.

Prerequisites ​

In order for the App Server to function correctly, you will need the following requirements:

  • An existing installation of Passwordstate 10 or above
  • A Windows server running either Windows 11, or Windows Server 2022 or above (This can be your Passwordstate web server, or another server of your choice)
  • Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8.1
  • A trusted SSL certificate (More information on this in section SSL Certificate Considerations below)
  • From where your App Server is installed, you must have an open port for it to connect back to your SQL Server – this port is 1433 by default. If you are using a SQL Listener for database connectivity, you will need to allow port 1434 UDP – unless you have modified the default port
