[wpkg-users] icacls command timing out when run by wpkg

[Steve Kersley]

When run by wpkg rather than on the command line, is it run as local system rather than an administrator?  If so, does the system account have permission to the problem files within the user account?

Steve.

I have a problem with an icacls command in one of my packages that times out when run by wpkg. When I run the command manually at the command prompt it has no problems - successfully processes many files, gives an error on a small number which are mainly hidden shortcuts, and returns an %errorlevel% of 0.

This is the full package. It's to set up a network share and ensure that a certain user can read all files and folders in it.

<package id="backup" name="Backup Configuration" revision="1" reboot="postponed" priority="10" >
		<check type="execute" path="%SOFTWARE%\check_backup.cmd" condition="exitcodeequalto" value="0" />
		<install cmd='net share Backup=C:\Users /grant:Admin,read /cache:no' />
		<install cmd='%COMSPEC% /C icacls C:\Users /t /c /remove:d Admin /grant Admin:r >NUL'/>
		<upgrade include="install" />
		<remove cmd='net share Backup /delete' /> </package>

I've tried it with and without redirecting the output to NUL, no difference. The target PCs are running Windows 7 Professional, 32-bit.
