Cory, I have IIS installed on a Windows Server 2008 machine along with Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2. When I try to install AES I get this error: Product: AdminStudio Web Server -- AdminStudio Web Server can only be installed on Windows server operating systems including Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2003 Server, and Windows 2008 Server. -- The OS is 64 bit and the Release Notes say Workflow Manager won't run on 64 bit for v9.5, but shouldn't I still be able to run the Enterprise piece? We are not using Workflow manager. I do have a ticket open with support, but so far this is getting a quicker response. ... View more

One way to get around this is to run a Custom Action in the system context and use the cacls.exe command. This probably isn't the answer your looking for, but I've used it in the past when I couldn't get LockPermissions to behave like I wanted. Displays or modifies access control lists (ACLs) of files CACLS filename [/G user:perm] [/R user [...]] [/P user:perm [...]] [/D user [...]] filename Displays ACLs. /T Changes ACLs of specified files in the current directory and all subdirectories. /E Edit ACL instead of replacing it. /C Continue on access denied errors. /G user:perm Grant specified user access rights. Perm can be: R Read W Write C Change (write) F Full control /R user Revoke specified user's access rights (only valid with /E). /P user:perm Replace specified user's access rights. Perm can be: N None R Read W Write C Change (write) F Full control /D user Deny specified user access. Wildcards can be used to specify more that one file in a command. You can specify more than one user in a command. Abbreviations: CI - Container Inherit. The ACE will be inherited by directories. OI - Object Inherit. The ACE will be inherited by files. IO - Inherit Only. The ACE does not apply to the current file/directory. ******************************************** To put in a custom action: The CACLS.EXE command line utility does not provide a /Y switch that automatically answers with Y for Yes to the ARE YOU SURE? Y/N prompt. However, you can use the echo command to pipe the character Y as input to the ARE YOU SURE? Y/N prompt when you call Cacls.exe in a batch file. To programmatically answer with Yes to the ARE YOU SURE? Y/N prompt during batch file execution, use the following command line in your batch file: echo y| cacls filename /g username:permission NOTE: Do not type a space between the "y" and the pipe symbol (|), otherwise, Cacls.exe fails to make the permission changes. ...

Try using [AppDataFolder]. This is a MSI property that will resolve to the current user's application data folder. That did the trick, THANKS!! 🙂 ... View more

Nicholas, When I try that it comes out as: C:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\Exceed. The brackets and their contents don't show up. Thanks, Brian ... View more
