CreditLine Credit Card Processing Software Installation Guide
Contents
Upgrading From Older Versions
If upgrading your credit card software, please make sure to
- In rare cases, when upgrading from non-IP versions 2.19 and older, you may incur a small upgrade fee - please contact your dealer for more information before installing the new version.
- Batch any outstanding transactions, first.
- If upgrading from a credit card software version prior to 3.00.00, please uninstall your old version, first. This will ensure that all non-compliant utilities and programs are removed from your system. You will not loose your data.
After following the steps above, simply proceed with installation. Your data will not be overwritten.
Installation
After you download the Credit Card Processing Software proceed to the following steps
- Run CreditLine_?.??.??.exe file
- Follow the instructions to install the credit card processing software.
The program is installed in C:\911 directory
The shortcuts are placed in Start->911 Software CreditLine
Installation Path
The default installation path is c:\911\. However, you can move the folder and map a drive to point to the new directory as root. For instance, if the program is moved to c:\Program Files\911 Software\CreditLine then map a drive Z: to c:\Program Files\911 Software\CreditLine and set the working directory for the shortcuts to SERVER and MANAGER to Z:\911\bin.
NOTE: the software ALWAYS looks for \911\bin from the root of the drive regardless of the installation path or working directory set. The working directory only points out the root drive.
Advanced Setup Options
Advanced setup options can be found in c:\911\data\911_CCV.ini file. Restart the server to apply.
Directory Structure
NOTE: in version 3.01.07 and older the software ALWAYS looks for \911\bin from the root of the drive regardless of the installation path or working directory set. The working directory only points out the root drive.
Directory Name | Contains |
---|---|
C:\911\BIN | Executables |
C:\911\DATA | Data |
C:\911\JOR | Historical Journal, automaticly created. For multiple merchant setups it is JOR? where ? is the merchant index. |
C:\911\LOG | Historical Log, automaticly created. For multiple merchant setups it is LOG? where ? is the merchant index. |
C:\911\MESSAGES | Text-Based Communication Files |
Important Files
Encryption Keys
The following two files must always accompany the #Transaction Journal: 911\data\DataEncryptingKey.ini and \911\data\KeyEncryptingKey.ini
Transaction Journal
The journal of all transactions is under the 911\data directory in ccv_jor.dat (or ccv_jor?.dat where ? is merchant index if you are using a multiple merchant setup. Make sure that the encryption keys 911\data\DataEncryptingKey.ini and \911\data\KeyEncryptingKey.ini always follow any moves of the data to and from the system or permanent corruption of the Transaction Journal File may result.
→Deleting this file will remove all unbatched transactions.
Setup
The merchant and other setup is under the 911\data directory in ccv_info.dat file(or ccv_info?.dat where ? is merchant index if you are using a multiple merchant setup.
BIN Ranges
The card number BIN ranges are the starting 6 digits of the card numbers that help us to identify the card types. \911\data\ccv_range.ini contains the defined BIN ranges for the setup
Terminal Registration File
The following file is used to register Terminals/Lanes manually, when required by processor compliance (e.g. Elavon 5/3rd Bank): 911\data\POSREGISTRATION.ini
Log
- Server Activity Log
- The log is stored under the 911\data directory in ccv_log.dat file (or ccv_log?.dat where ? is merchant index if you are using a multiple merchant setup. The log can be viewed in CreditLine Manager by using CreditLine View Log Dialog. Older logs can be viewed by using the CreditLine Log Archive List Dialog.
- Error Statistic File
- The error statistic file can be used for reliability testing and is stored under the 911\data directory in ccv_error.csv. The header for the file describes the fields, separated by '|', e.g. "DATE|TIME|MERCHANT NAME|ERROR DESCRIPTION|ERROR TYPE|TRANS TYPE|PROCESSOR NAME|COMM TYPE|COMM PARAMETER"
Advanced Configuration
The advanced configuration is under the 911\data directory in 911_ccv.ini. See CreditLine Advanced Setup for more info.
Connection Configuration
The connection settings for various processors and modems is under the 911\data directory in ccv_link.ini.

The number of days that the journals are backed up is specified in CreditLine Business Configuration Dialog. To restore the journal/batch you can rename the desired journal backup file to ccv_jor.dat and move it to 911\DATA directory. Don't forget to reload the configuration to apply the changes.
→ For multiple merchant setups replace JOR below with JOR? where ? is the merchant index.
File Name | Function |

There are two keys: DataEncryptingKey.ini (backup file starting with d), KeyEncryptingKey.ini (backup file starting with k)
To restore the keys:
- Batch out any outstanding accessible transactions
- Backup current DataEncryptingKey.ini and KeyEncryptingKey.ini in 911\Data directory, by renaming them to DataEncryptingKey.ini.bad and KeyEncryptingKey.ini.bad
- Enter 911\Backup directory and sort by Date Modified';
- Pick the desired pair of keys, copy them to 911\Data directory and rename to DataEncryptingKey.ini and KeyEncryptingKey.ini respectively.
- Restart the CreditLine server/service and CreditLine Manager
