File Permission

[Guest]

Hello, I have an Console Application (my first endevor in Console
applications) which works fine when I and using Visual Studio to run it on my
workstation. Now I take the application and move it to a "server". I
created a ".bat" file to invoke the application, but now when I run I get a
security violation error when I run it from my workstation (not the server).
SO to be clear, from my workstation, i naviagate the the shared drive on my
server and double click on the ".bat" file and I get the following error....

Message: Request for the permission of type
System.Security.Permissions.FileIOP
ermission, mscorlib, Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b77a5c5
61934e089 failed.

If I log onto the server and run the bat file, it runs just fine, but I am
not able do do the same from my workstation.

So what do I need to do to be able to run this in that manner?

Jim,

From the batch file, are you calling the executable on a share, or
something of that nature? When you do this, the runtime realizes that the
executable is not from the local machine, and executes it with a diminished
permission set (one of those permissions being file IO). You would have to
go to the .NET administration tool, and give it the appropriate permissions.

Hope this helps.
