Posted July 28, 2007 I use "sheduled tasks" to load the Apex at system startup without end user logging in. The 1b2 can work under user privileges The 1b3 doesn't work under user and power user priveleges. I think you are using a hidden from users library. I don't think it is secure to use the p2p under the administrative account. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 28, 2007 I voted no, since I run everything under my Admin acc, but it is really not nice. I rely on my router and AV/FW soft. Basically, all should work as expected, this should be fixed, imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 29, 2007 Did you install it from the binary or the setup? Which account did you install/extract it from? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 29, 2007 Did you install it from the binary or the setup? Which account did you install/extract it from? What did you say? What account??? Binary.rar contains 2 files - pdb and exe. I think I have loaded the binary. I dont like setups and the programms needed setiing then up. Normal programs does their one feature and does that feature the best way.

Posted July 30, 2007 I don't think it is secure to use the p2p under the administrative account. Agree I do not however use a scheduled task at startup. I run it from a user account & it seams to work OK. Installed it via the install application. Then just login as that user, start ApexDC then switch users.

Posted July 30, 2007 It is possible, that you have extracted it to a folder that does not allow your user account to run exe's. If this is the case simply add your extracted folder as allowed by the user account. I'm in work at present and the PC here is restricted so I can't access the folders to give a more in depth explanation, sorry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 30, 2007 To be not a donkey I have checked. But at the first moment I have known you are wrong. All permissons are OK. I think the Apex uses some file from system folders, permitted only for Admins. Or some API operation. I don't know. There are no any marks at event and alert system journals, appeared if the permissons are broken. What a idea - use the system journals through the additional checkbox - make your Apex own journal, clearing at some time after posting messages. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 1, 2007 AFAIK Apex does not even use the registry or such, so it should run explicitly from the .exe file alone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
