Description Michal Karm Babacek 2012-06-07 13:57:25 UTC
Affects: Release Notes
project_key: JBPAPP6

UAC control on Windows 2008 R2 strikes:
{noformat}
[Thu Jun 07 09:55:28 2012] [emerg] create_mem_node C:/tmp/Red Hat/Enterprise Web Server/etc/httpd/logs/manager.node failed: Access is denied.  
Configuration Failed
{noformat}
 
With [JBPAPP-7336], the [Disable UAC utility|http://www.disableuac.com/] helped me. I can not use it properly on dev99 now, because user hudson does not have sufficient rights (user jbossqa is disabled somehow...?) My guess is that with proper permissions, Disable UAC would help in this case as well, hence *Critical* and not *Blocker*.

*(i) Note:* In ER8, I executed tests under user jbossqa, with UAC disabled I guess...

(!) We must have this in the release notes somewhere... (!)

Comment 5 Michal Karm Babacek 2012-06-07 14:52:09 UTC
h3. UAC disabled + administrator rights
(!) I have just confirmed that Mod_cluster with httpd in EAP6 CR1 can be started only as long as the following conditions are met:
 * user has Administrator rights
 * UAC is disabled

Comment 16 Michal Karm Babacek 2014-11-06 14:08:51 UTC
It has been concluded that this is a Windows administration error now. With a proper path set in MemManagerFile, there is no problem with UAC unless the user running Apache HTTP Server service presents ill configured permissions. This might happen especially in Domain Controlled environments, but it's definitely not our error.
