Error installing Report plugin

[tomkyn]

CE8.5, CE8.5PIA, C# .NET, .NET 1.1
----------------------------------

Strange error is happening when I do:

myReport = (Report)result.PluginInterface;

OR

myReport = new Report(result.PluginInterface);

Error message:

Error occurred when installing the plug-in. Error code: 65, message: Network access is denied.

Apparently this has to do with MSIServer. The system event log says:

Access denied attempting to launch a DCOM Server. The server is:
{000C101C-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}
The user is ASPNET/MYMACHINE, SID=S-1-5-21-738545293-2032078321-1344568912-1008.

And the application event log says:
Failed to connect to server. Error: 0x80040154

hunch

try changing the account the Windows Installer Service is running as from a LocalSystem to a domain/admin and see if this helps. Will tell you it is a rights issue anyway

Wonderful. That did it. It doesn't even have to be the domain\admin account, as long as the MSIServer impersonates anyone who has a valid login on the domain.

Thanks.

I suggested the domain/admin since it usually rules out all rights issues and saves futzing around.
