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 have a host machine with Hyper-V enabled, and I have a Hyper-V guest running on this machine. Becauze I can't drag&drop files to the VM, I wrote a script to do this for me, which is integrated in TotalCommander, and which uses Copy-VMFile.
My problem is that the PS script works only if I run it as admin, otherwise I get the error "You do not have the required permission to complete this task."
Why do I need admin to copy from the host machine to the guest OS? And is there a way, some policy which would allow me to circumvent this? It is annoying to enter a password every time I want to copy some files.
I am using psexec to execute commands on remote server. Here is my command,
PsExec.exe" -u user \\server -h run.bat
I am entering the password manually. here I am using standard user account due to security issues. When I run the command I am getting the error,
"Make sure that the default admin$ share is enabled"
I read here that it cannot be done without admin privileges.
But when I test the same command in LAN it works in standard user.
How it works in LAN not in Remote server ?
Is there any alternative tools which will work in standard user ?
Please help me.
As an alternate tool, you can use Powershell and WinRM. Powershell allows you to execute a command, or an interactive session, on the remote windows server.
An example of executing a command is available here:
How to programmatically/remotely execute a program in EC2 Windows instance
If you need an interactive session, look at the Powershll command 'Enter-PSSession': https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh849707.aspx
If we assume that a service must be run as administrator, is it possible to install it using a command line (sc.exe, powershell - all is available)?
Bonus: Is it possible to do without providing password?
sc.exe config 'servicename-notdisplayname' obj='\Administrator' password='secret'
Still no luck avoiding password, as it's required when starting the service.
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.
