Event ID: 7362: The super user account utilized by the cache is not configured
Hi all,
Today, I’ll explain how I solve the Event ID 7362 concerning the Publishing Cache.
I made a copy/paste of the used explanation from Stephan Albert Bren blogspot.
On his page, there is the stsadm version that I didn’t used, because I prefer to use PowerShell version.
