Can't run programs installed under Administrator
Our user DLU's run at the User level, so we install any extra software that isn't on our image using the local Administrator account. Sometimes users are prompted to enter the Administrator password just to run such software, but it seems to depend on the program.
Virtual Apps are not always possible so I'm trying to understand the mechanics of why Users can run something installed under Administrator.
If you want them to be able to install software, make them part of the
administrators or power users group.
Of course, what's gonna happen to them WHEN they install improper software
(not IF, it is a WHEN).
What software are you trying to install?
You should probably look up the app @ the website www.appdeploy.com
While not specific to ZCM, it has an incredible wealth of info on specific
applications and how to deploy/package them

Most users are trying to install simple .exe files for browser addons
and they are nearly attacking me for the rights to do this. There has
got to be an easier way than trying to make a bundle each time some
small install issue comes up.
I just want my users to be able to install whatever they want. If they
blow up their machine we can reimage it.

We have a simple runbook that runs an .exe program local on a remote server.
When I run the runbook within the Runbook Designer and the Runbook Tester it runs succesfully.
When I run the runbook within the Orchestration Console (http://server4:82) I get the error message "Access is denied. Installing Orchestrator Run Program Service requires administrative privileges on the target computer."
Orchestrator hierarchy:
server1 Management Server
server2 Runbook Designer
server3 Runbook Server
server4 Web ServerAlready solved it!
Even after making the Service Account a Domain Admin it didn't work after restarting the two services on server1. But I forgot the service on server3! Apparently when you use the Web Server it runs the runbook through the Runbook Server and when you
use Runbook Designer it runs locally within the Runbook Tester? -

Subject: Can't Run program in Debug Mode
Has anyone else experienced this problem? We have written a non-express
program that uses the Express generated services project as a supplier
plan. However, when we try running this program in debug mode about 50%
(or more) of the time we abend while Forte is trying to partition the
application. Since we have many database classes in our Business Model we
are wondering if Forte is timing out during the partition phase or if the
server partition is running out of memory . The following error messages
are produced by Forte. Any suggestions???

-----------------------------------------------Hi,
We have had the same problem in a non-express application
with a heavy server partition. In our case, the error was not
systematic, depending on the server workload at the time we
tried to partition and run.
The work-around we're using is to put the -fm flags (increasing the x
parameter to say 30000) in the 'server arguments' of your server
partition
properties in the partition workshop. Note that if your server is a Unix
platform,
you need to put double-quotes before and after the parenthesis in the -fm
syntax.
Hope this helps,
Vincent Figari
BTW, what Forte version are you using ?

Install under Administrator or User Account w/ Administrator?
I was wondering how did you guys install your CS4 on windows 7. Do you install it under Administrator account or under User with Administrator priviledge? What is the difference anyway?
Found something...this is the entire page link
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc507861.aspx
Follows is a section of the above document:
Marking an Application that Requires a Full Administrator Access Token
There may be situations where certain applications will not function correctly unless they are run by a user with a full administrator access token. This can occur with pre-Windows Vista programs that are not designed to operate under the UAC environment. Microsoft has provided a mechanism to ensure that these applications can be enabled so they will always be marked as requiring a full administrator access token. The following procedure details how to mark an application to always require an administrator access token when it is launched.
To mark an application to always require a full administrator access token
1. Right click the program you would like to modify and select Properties.
2. In Properties, select the Compatibility tab.
3. Under Privilege Level, select the Run this program as an administrator check box, and then click Apply or OK.
4. If this is the first time the application has been marked to run as an administrator, a dialog box will appear.
5. Click OK to continue.
Cc507861.aa906022_note(en-us,TechNet.10).gifNote
If this is the first time that this application was marked, a message will appear indicating that Windows Vista will instruct the application to gather information about which operations the program is performing that requires it to run with a full administrator access token. This information will help Microsoft determine if any steps can be taken to correct the program in the future so that will no longer require a full administrator access token. When asked to check for "Solutions to Problems," always check for solutions on any product that has a LUADiagnostics problem. This will ensure that the collected information is sent to Microsoft. If you do not want to send this information, do not check for "Solutions to Problems."
Once complete, the program will prompt for elevation consent whenever it is launched.
So, you would uninstall cs4, run cleanup utility a bunch of times with reboots as people mention here...( I've never done it ).....create your new accounts including extra admin just in case ( with passwrd protection ) .....then re-install cs4 ..........then give cs4 the above permission to run under the admin access token.... then an normal user should be able to run it ......not just an admin account group....
good luck

Can I run as a non-administrator?
I run on a Windows XP user account that does not have administrator priveledges. The administrator installed ADE and I can run it. However, if I attempt to get a book from Adobe's web site, it wants me to install ADE. Of course, if I try to install it, that fails with a message indicating I need "administrator access". Is there any way I can run as a non-administrator user (so not being able to install a program), but still download books?
Hi,
All that one need to run application in NWDS is the SDM password to deploy the applications .
who ever know the SDM password can simply install NWDS on thier PC , deploy and run applications.

Cant update iApps installed under my old ID. I try uninstalling them and reinstalling them as new Apps from Featured but they don't show as new Apps in Featured but as Updates.
You would need to log into the App Store using the Apple ID used to purchase these apps in order to update them. Otherwise, you must re-purchase them under your current Apple ID. They cannot be transferred.

Textpad can't Run programs after installing oracle9i Jdeveloper
'NoClassFound' this type run error is displaying the textpad editor, after installing the jDeveloper. Before installing the JDeveloper it was running properly from textpad through jdk 5,
Now it is showing the above error.
Though from the jdeveloper run engine the same program is running properly.
where it is conflicting? i know jdeveloper got its own java exe and compiler, is it making any prob wid da jdk 5 exe and compiler?
plz let me know?
u kan mail me: [email protected]Let me understand: you have a Mac Pro (this forum) or G5? totally different.
Why not backup the home directory and then erase and install? that works.
Your hardware profile etc says "10.3.9" and while it is possible to do an update in place from panther to tiger, it really works best to reformat and install (after backup up everything obviously). -
Can't run programs from non-admin account: redux
Background: I have years of experience with PCs, very little with Macs. I work with children in a group home. The tech support people who set up this iMac (OS X 10.2) have long since departed, and no one in the organization has any clue as to what changes they made to this system, and I'm sure that those tech people made some changes. For example, in admin accounts other than "root," either there is no access to the Utilities folder or the folder has been well hidden.
The Problem: The boys in this home will use a non-admin account. The programs I have installed for them will run under admin accounts but not under the "boys" account, which is non-admin. The system tells me that the account does not have enough access privileges to run the programs. (Program that had been installed before I got access to this iMac will run under the "boys" account.)
In discussions on this forum several months ago, I thought the answers I got here had helped me solve the problem. Then, for administrative reasons, I did not touch the iMac until last week. What I thought had been solved is not solved.
From "root," using the "Capabilities" option in the Accounts folder, I have added to the "Add other applications..." section the programs I want "boys" to have access to. But this doesn't work. When I log in to "boys," access is denied: insufficient access privileges.
If I give up on this system, the boys will not be able to use this iMac, and that would be a shame.I realize that it sounds like I ignored all the previous advice before I drafted this latest post. But the first thing I did when I returned to the iMac was to look at the posts.
I didn't touch the system for six months. I was waiting for approval from administration to upgrade the OS. By the time I got the approval, upgrading was no longer an option -- according to the manager of the local Genius Bar. This system is not capable of running 10.5, and Apple will no longer sell 10.4. I can find 10.4 on the Net, but those are private sellers and the price is too high.
Now that I've got that out of the way, the current task: I have no idea why, but the gains I accomplished six months ago have disappeared. The "boys" account can run none of the software I installed. No one else has touched the system. (I live alone.)
I logged on as "root" and went to Accounts. Using 10.2's Capabilities function, I tried to check all the boxes for "boys." But when I close the screen and then re-open it, the system has unchecked "Open all System Preferences"; "Change Password"; and access to "Utilities."
At this point I cannot create new folders under "boys." "boys" can run software that was installed before I got the machine, but that's all.
I have to assume that I inadvertently did something that wiped out my previous gains. But I ain't got a clue. -
Error: can't run programs
Hi,
I use eclipse for my CS101 course as recommended by our course instructors (apparently to the chagrin of some knowledgable students) and am unable to run any program (even a simple Hello World program produces the same error message). I have up to date Java installed and even reinstalled under the eye of a TA. I was wondering if anyone could offer insight. Below is the error message produced any time I try and run.
