Created Jenkins job to run silent installation of my application, the application installer is exe file.
tried with Windows Exe Runner - setup.exe /s
tried with PowerShell job - - setup.exe /s
In both cases I get the same issue:
System.InvalidOperationException: Showing a modal dialog box or form when the application is not running in UserInteractive mode is not a valid operation. Specify the ServiceNotification or DefaultDesktopOnly style to display a notification from a service application.
If I run the command manually on the machine from PS run as administrator it will silently install my application in the background without errors.
Suppose it is problem with Jenkins privileges on the server machine, Jenkins is run as a service using Admin credentials.

I'm using GitHub Enterprise with a self-hosted runner that runs on my dev server to accept the build and deploy commands to that server. The build steps are running successfully, but I'm struggling with the deploy steps. The application that is being deployed is an IIS application and I'm trying to run a powershell script I've written to perform the IIS update (stops the IIS server, copies build package contents over to inetpub, starts the IIS server). When the runner executes this script, it fails because it doesn't have permissions to replace the inetpub contents, among other permissions issues. Until now with GitHub Enterprise, I would just run this step as administrator, but I can't find a way to elevate the runner's privileges to do so. Is there syntax for this? This is what I'm currently trying:
- name: Deploy
shell: cmd
run: |
cd myBuildLocation
powershell -file deployrelease.ps1 -inetpubPath C:\inetpub\mySiteName
I have some jenkins powershell IIS scripts. I need to run them as admin in jenkins pipeline to make it work. When I try it from jenkins it gives me "Error: Cannot read configuration file due to insufficient permissions". But when I run it from my local ps as admin, it works perfectly. How can I resolve this issue? Thanks!
I am facing a very strange issue trying to run a Remote PowerShell script from the new build system of Visual Studio Online.
Context:
I have a Build server that I host on my own VM. I have also created a second VM where I want the PowerShell script to be run on.
When I run a build from the Build server, I want to create a task that run a PowerShell script on a remote machine. Sounds easy.
Both machines have everything configured to run the Remote PowerShell. (I think)
Problem:
If I manually run the script from the build server, the script is properly executed on my remote machine.
But, if I run the script by starting a new build, it doesn't work, I always get an error message
New-PSSession : [xxx.cloudapp.net] Connecting to remote server xxx.cloudapp.net failed with the following error message : Access is denied. For more information, see the about_Remote_Troubleshooting Help topic.
Have you faced this issue before with VSOnline?
This can happen if there isn't a trust relationship between the remote machine and the build machine. E.g. you could look at the hosts.equiv file on the remote machine and make sure it trusts the build machine.
If that doesn't help then more info might be needed, like how you're trying to sign in, what build agent account you're running as.

I would like to connect my dial up broadband pppoe when my system starts without logging into my account on windows 8.1, I have successfully running some other programs like team viewer apache, mysql, filezilla server using windows task scheduler. SO i have also created a .bat file using rasdial to connect my dialup connection the code is
rasdial connection_name username pass
rasdial connection_name /d
rasdial connection_name username pass
this works fine when I double click on it but it is not working with windows task scheduler but why?
I am running a service called prunner on windows server 2012. I used the command sc to change the username and the password of the service:
sc.exe config myService obj= "sqa265\hero" password= "hero1"
The output of the command is saying that it have succeed but when I go to task manager in order to start the service I get: logon failure!!!
I tried to run the sc command under the user hero and under the user administrator but I still get the same error. But the very strange thing is that if I do the same thing manually via the task manager and service control pane I success and the service go to the state:running!!! But I need to automate this thing, so please any help?
You need to give the account "sqa265\hero" the SeServiceLogonRight permission. As you have noticed setting the credentials up through the control panel works, but what you might not have noticed is that if you tried to use the command line after using the control panel.
You can test this by setting the service back to the Local System account in the control panel, and then running your command-line again.
To fix this from a script, you can use the NTRights utility outlined in this MS knowledgebase article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315276
After you install NTRights, you can run it like this:
NTRights.exe +r SeServiceLogonRight -u "sqa265\hero"
Combined with the sc config commandline you already have, the service should run with those credentials.
