My first question is RunAsCurrentUser-2.0.3.1.exe compatible with Windows XP SP3?

I used the SHA1 function to produce:

prefetch RunAsCurrentUser.exe sha1:ee47505ebfb2790b9da8a20ed70e67158e9753d0 size:342528 http://software.bigfix.com/download/bes/util/RunAsCurrentUser-2.0.3.1.exe

I am attempting run a custom executable as the current user but it seems that the following does not actually run SyncTool.exe

wait __Download\RunAsCurrentUser.exe --w __Download\SyncTool.exe

I have placed debug statements and dialogs into the SyncTool.exe program which do not appear during the “running” phase. The expected changes to the environment are not realized. The action reports:

Start Time 8/19/2010 2:24:23 PM

End Time 8/19/2010 2:24:31 PM

Completed if {exists current user}

Completed prefetch RunAsCurrentUser.exe sha1:ee47505ebfb2790b9da8a20ed70e67158e9753d0 size:342528 http://software.bigfix.com/download/bes/util/RunAsCurrentUser-2.0.3.1.exe

Completed download http://OurServer:52311/Uploads/bb1487106048cd00d49c4d5905346a96c4f36c62/SyncToy.tmp

Completed continue if {(size of it = 561751 AND sha1 of it = “bb1487106048cd00d49c4d5905346a96c4f36c62”) of file “SyncToy.tmp” of folder “__Download”}

Completed extract SyncToy.tmp

Completed wait __Download\RunAsCurrentUser.exe --w __Download\SyncTool.exe

Completed endif

Thank you for the help, Gary

I am also having problems with RACU.exe. Are you able to run it outside of BigFix? I am not so I think it’s either a Windows issue, an issue with the exe itself, or something specific to my environment.

As a test, temporarily grant permissions to the BigFix folders to all users and see if that changes anything…

Ben-

That seemed to help. Is the permissions setting a new requirement for this version?

It seemed to work with earlier version I used previously.

I have actually taken a new approach with this deployment. I only copy the file to the program files folder and set a run key in the registry. Then the program runs under the user’s context at the next login.

Thanks again for the reply, Gary

I don’t think we have changed anything about the permissions in a while so I wouldn’t expect any differences…

Ben, any ideas on my issue with RACU?
